Amgen announced a plan to reduce its workforce by 12-15% (up to a maximum of 2,900 redundancies) as part of a refocusing of resources on the development of new drugs (last year the US group acquired Onyx Pharmaceuticals for $10.4 billion to buy Kyprolis, a drug for the treatment of multiple myeloma). The redundancy announcement came alongside second-quarter results marked by 23% earnings progressing to $1.55 billion, or $2.01 per share. Adjusted EPS was $2.37, while 11% revenues grew to $5.18 billion. Thomson Reuters analysts estimated EPS on average at $2.07 on $4.9 billion in revenue. The Amgen title which gained 0.54% on Wall Street on Tuesday, trading was up more than 3% in pre-market on the Nasdaq.
