Bristol Myers Squibb on Thursday reported quarterly adjusted earnings that topped expectations and posted revenue in line with estimates, even as sales of the company's popular blood cancer drug Revlimid plummeted due to generic competition.
Bristol Myers also reiterated its full-year revenue guidance of a low single-digit percentage decline.
Bristol Myers said both older and new drug products helped offset the lower sales of Revlimid for the third quarter.
Eliquis, which Bristol Myers shares with Pfizer , is among the first ten drugs selected to face price negotiations with the federal Medicare program.
Bristol Myers will hold an earnings call with investors at 8 a.m. E.T.
