SAN CARLOS, Calif. – August 6, 2025 – BeOne Medicines Ltd. (NASDAQ: ONC; HKEX: 06160; SSE: 688235), a global oncology company, today announced financial results and corporate updates from the second quarter of 2025.
“Our strong second quarter performance reinforces our trajectory as a global oncology powerhouse and underscores our proven ability to deliver sustainable, long-term growth,” said John V. Oyler, Co-Founder, Chairman and CEO of BeOne. “We are executing with purpose and advancing our mission to deliver transformative medicines to more patients worldwide. BRUKINSA, the backbone of our hematology franchise, continues to set the standard as the best-in-class BTK inhibitor with the most approved indications and market leader in the US, a position earned from superior efficacy, favorable safety, and positive patient outcomes across its five indications. Building on this momentum, our two additional Phase 3 hematology assets, BCL2 inhibitor sonrotoclax and BTK CDAC BGB-16673, have the potential to further expand our franchise leadership with pivotal data readouts and new trial initiations anticipated in the near-term. At our recent Investor R&D Day, we outlined a bold path forward with more than 20 expected R&D milestones in the next 18 months. This includes potentially promising advances across our expansive solid tumor pipeline, where we are building future global franchises targeting a range of highly prevalent cancers.”

Second Quarter 2025 Financial Results
Revenue for the second quarter of 2025 was $1.3 billion, compared to $929 million in the prior-year period driven primarily by growth in BRUKINSA (zanubrutinib) product sales in the U.S. and Europe.
Product Revenue totaled $1.3 billion for the second quarter of 2025 compared to $921 million in the prior-year period. The increase in product revenue was primarily attributable to increased sales of BRUKINSA. The U.S. continued to be the Company’s largest market, with product revenue of $685 million compared to $479 million in the prior-year period. In-licensed products from Amgen and TEVIMBRA (tislelizumab) also contributed to product revenue growth.
• U.S. sales of BRUKINSA totaled $684 million in the second quarter of 2025, representing growth of 43% over the prior-year period driven primarily by robust demand growth across all indications and modest benefit due to net pricing. BRUKINSA continues to maintain its leading new patient share across the BTKi class due to its differentiated, best-in-class clinical profile. BRUKINSA sales in Europe totaled $150 million in the second quarter of 2025, representing growth of 85% compared to the prior-year period, driven by increased market share across all major European markets, including Germany, Italy, Spain, France and the UK.
• Sales of TEVIMBRA totaled $194 million in the second quarter of 2025, representing growth of 22% compared to the prior-year period.
Gross Margin as a percentage of global product sales for the second quarter of 2025 was 87.4% compared to 85.0in the prior-year period on a GAAP basis. The gross margin percentage increased due to a proportionally higher sales mix of global BRUKINSA compared to other products in our portfolio. Gross margin also benefited from cost of sales productivity improvements for both BRUKINSA and TEVIMBRA. On an adjusted basis, which does not include depreciation and amortization, gross margin as a percentage of product sales increased to 88.1% for the second quarter of 2025, compared to 85.4% in the prior-year period.
Operating Expenses
The following table summarizes operating expenses for the second quarter of 2025:
Research and Development (R&D) Expenses increased for the second quarter of 2025 compared to the prior-year period on both a GAAP and adjusted basis primarily due to advancing preclinical programs into the clinic and early clinical programs into late stage, and offset by lower development upfront and milestone fees. Upfront fees and milestone payments related to in process R&D for in-licensed assets totaled $0.5 million and $12 million in the second quarter of 2025 and 2024, respectively.
Selling, General and Administrative (SG&A) Expenses increased for the second quarter of 2025 compared to the prior-year period on both a GAAP and adjusted basis due to continued investment in global commercial expansion, primarily in the U.S. and Europe. SG&A expenses as a percentage of product sales were 41% for the second quarter of 2025, compared to 48% in the prior-year period.
Net Income/(Loss) and GAAP/Non-GAAP Earnings Per Share
GAAP net income for the second quarter of 2025 was $94 million, an increase of $215 million over the prior-year period loss, primarily attributable to revenue growth and improved operating leverage.
For the second quarter of 2025, basic and diluted earnings per share was $0.07 and $0.06 per share and $0.87 and $0.84 per American Depositary Share (ADS), respectively, compared to basic loss of $0.09 per share and $1.15 per ADS in the prior-year period.
Free Cash Flow for the second quarter of 2025 was $220 million, an increase of $425 million over the prior-year period.
For further details on BeOne’s Second Quarter 2025 Financial Statements, please see BeOne’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the second quarter of 2025 filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission.
Full Year 2025 Guidance
BeOne has updated its full year 2025 revenue guidance and maintained its expense guidance. Guidance is summarized below:
BeOne’s total revenue guidance for full year 2025 of $5.0 billion to $5.3 billion includes expectations for strong revenue growth driven by BRUKINSA’s U.S. leadership position and continued global expansion in both Europe and other important rest of world markets. Gross margin percentage is expected to be in the mid- to high-80% range due to mix and production efficiencies as compared to 2024. BeOne’s guidance for combined operating expenses on a GAAP basis includes expectations of investment to support growth in both commercial and research at a pace that continues to deliver meaningful operating leverage. Non-GAAP operating expenses, which exclude costs related to share-based compensation, depreciation and amortization expense, are expected to track with GAAP operating expenses, with reconciling items unchanged from existing practice. Operating expense guidance does not assume any potential new, material business development activity or unusual/non-recurring items.

BeiGene Opens Flagship U.S. Biologics Manufacturing and Clinical R&D Facility, Continues Global Expansion to Deliver Medicines to More Patients Around the World
Jul 23, 2024 7:00 AM
$800 million investment in New Jersey supports global growth and expansion with technologically advanced manufacturing capacity and clinical development capabilities for novel cancer medicines
HOPEWELL, N.J.--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- BeiGene, Ltd. (NASDAQ: BGNE; HKEX: 06160; SSE: 688235), a global oncology company, today announced the opening of its flagship U.S. facility in Hopewell, N.J., at the Princeton West Innovation Campus, which houses state-of-the-art biologics manufacturing capabilities and a clinical research and development center that further bolster the Company’s differentiated model as an oncology innovator. BeiGene has more than 30 molecules at clinical or commercial stage, and the 42-acre facility provides flexibility to scale production of its innovative medicines today and in the future to meet the needs of patients with cancer.
“BeiGene has experienced unprecedented global growth, and the addition of our facility at the Princeton West Innovation Campus adds manufacturing and clinical development capabilities that will further strengthen our differentiated strategy which leverages speed, efficiency and technology to advance quality medicines faster for patients,” said John V. Oyler, Co-Founder, Chairman and CEO of BeiGene. “We are proud to be a part of New Jersey’s biopharmaceutical community that is rich in research and development and manufacturing talent. We look forward to deepening our relationships with key regional research institutions as we advance our robust pipeline of next-generation hematology and solid tumor medicines and continue to emerge as a leading global oncology innovator.”
BeiGene’s $800 million investment is the culmination of a three-year project to expand the Company’s integrated manufacturing and research and development footprint in the U.S. BeiGene will create hundreds of skilled high-tech jobs at the site by the end of 2025. New Jersey is a global leader in biopharmaceutical manufacturing and R&D with nine of the top 10 R&D companies in the world having a presence in the state. New Jersey boasts one of the country’s leading biopharmaceutical manufacturing workforces, and its infrastructure and connectivity ensure access to major markets around the world.
“I am thrilled by BeiGene’s contribution to our state’s thriving biopharmaceutical sector,” said Governor Phil Murphy. “The opening of BeiGene’s flagship campus underscores our commitment to fostering innovation and creating high-tech jobs in the Garden State. We look forward to the positive impact BeiGene will have on our economy and the advancements they will bring to cancer treatment. This significant investment highlights New Jersey’s role as a global leader in pharmaceutical manufacturing, research and development. We are proud to support BeiGene’s mission to develop affordable and accessible treatments for cancer patients worldwide.”
The site features approximately 400,000 square feet of dedicated commercial-stage biologic pharmaceutical manufacturing capacity with space to expand over time, allowing flexibility as BeiGene’s pipeline continues to mature. The facility adds to BeiGene’s late-stage research and clinical development capabilities, which have enabled the Company’s fast rise to global oncology leadership. BeiGene has built one of the industry’s deepest and most compelling oncology pipelines, addressing 80 percent of the world’s cancers with innovative modalities such as targeted degraders and antibody drug conjugates (ADCs), in addition to monoclonal antibodies and traditional small molecules. The new facility builds on BeiGene’s existing capabilities, enabling the Company to produce at scale, thereby reducing costs, ensuring supply chain resiliency, avoiding global disruptions, protecting capacity and rapidly adapting to the latest innovative modalities.
“I am excited to welcome BeiGene to Hopewell Township. BeiGene’s new cutting-edge pharmaceutical facility represents a significant investment in our community’s future. The life-saving medicines made right here in Hopewell will not only enhance global cancer treatment, but will also create good-paying, high-tech jobs and strengthen our local economy,” said Hopewell Township Mayor Courtney Peters-Manning. “We look forward to the company’s continued success in Hopewell Township.”
BeiGene recognizes that human health and the health of the planet are intrinsically linked, and the Company is committed to reducing our environmental impact. For this reason, the Company has invested in sustainability measures both in the buildings and surrounding 42 acres, including a heating and cooling system that uses recycled wastewater from the onsite wastewater treatment plant for the cooling towers. The site also is solar-ready in line with our longer-term sustainability plan. More details on the facility, including multimedia assets, are available online at: https://www.beigene.com/hopewell .

Sustainability Report 2023
A Letter from Leadership
Together with our colleagues, we are pleased to share this year’s Responsible Business & Sustainability Report. In 2023, BeiGene experienced tremendous growth both internally and with our stakeholders around the globe. Firmly rooted in our Responsible Business & Sustainability focus areas and priorities, we achieved several key initiatives. These include the development of our global health equity strategy; the approval of our first Scope 1 and Scope 2 quantitative emissions-reduction goal; the evolution of our diversity, equity, inclusion, and belonging (DEI&B) strategy; the elevation of patient insights in our drug development strategy; and the launch of the BeiGene Foundation.
Embodying our value of Bold Ingenuity, our prolific internal discovery engine powered us to over 20 candidates in our clinical pipeline. Additionally, we regained global rights to TEVIMBRA® (tislelizumab), one of our cornerstone, internally developed medicines, and BRUKINSA® (zanubrutinib) received a steady stream of regulatory approvals. This year, we achieved the remarkable milestone of BRUKINSA and TEVIMBRA treating more than one million patients around the world. To continue delivering on our mission to bring the highest-quality therapies to more patients and further affirm our value of Patients First, we also developed a comprehensive Global Health Equity Strategy in 2023.
In its inaugural year, the Global Human Equity Working Group laid the foundation for BeiGene to be a leader in health equity and DEI&B in the years to come. The working group established a governance structure, defining a vision and mission for our strategy that reflect the voices and needs of patients, communities, and colleagues, and articulated where BeiGene will focus its global health equity efforts. Our advancements in bringing life-saving medicines to patients around the world are thanks to more than 10,000 colleagues across five continents. In 2023, our rapid growth and ability to attract talent resulted in an increase of 2,625 new colleagues to our diverse and global team. We also furthered our value of Collaborative Spirit and strategic focus on a culture of belonging through the introduction of our Core Competencies, enhanced mental health and well-being benefits, and a revamped DEI&B strategy designed to evolve BeiGene into a diversity-mature organization. Creating a culture that embraces responsible business while cultivating positive change in society includes how we engage with the communities in which we work and live.
In 2023, we launched the BeiGene Foundation as an independent 501(c) (3) organization to provide grants to charitable organizations aligned with the Foundation’s mission to eliminating barriers to equitable and accessible cancer care in underrepresented communities around the world. The first grant made by the BeiGene Foundation was to The Max Foundation as part of a partnership with BeiGene to provide access to BRUKINSA to patients in low- and middle-income countries. Finally, our value of Driving Excellence encompasses our continued focus in 2023 on decreasing our environmental impacts and combatting climate change.
This year, our Responsible Business & Sustainability Working Group approved our Scope 1 and Scope 2 goal to reduce emissions by 25% per unit of internally manufactured commercial product by 2026. We also completed a Scope 3 global footprint analysis and moved ahead with plans to launch a supplier engagement program, which together will lay the groundwork to establish a Scope 3 reduction goal by 2025. In addition, findings from our climate risk assessment were integrated into our enterprise risk management process. This integration will allow these considerations to inform our strategy for adapting our operations and practices to become a more resilient organization. We thank our stakeholders for their support and commitment to our mission and growth.
Our achievements over the past year are a testament to their passion and dedication to improving the lives of people across the world. As we look ahead, we anticipate numerous opportunities to expand our clinical reach, improve our commitment to operating responsibly, and further our sustainability goals. We invite you to explore this report to learn more about our Responsible Business & Sustainability commitments and our ongoing mission as a good corporate citizen and leading oncology innovator.
