In context

percentage increase compared to 2025. And we expect full-year 2026 operating income of $2.4 billion to $2.9 billion. Full-year 2026 effective tax rate is expected to be between 140% and 190% reflecting the nondeductible expenses from the Arcellx, Oral Medicines, and Tubulis transactions.
