- Net Income Attributable to Biogen Inc.
- The net income showed a consistent upward trend from 2005 through 2014, rising from approximately $161 million to around $3.5 billion. This growth was particularly pronounced between 2011 and 2014. After peaking in 2015 and 2016 at around $3.7 billion, net income experienced volatility with a significant dip in 2017 to $2.54 billion, followed by a strong recovery in 2018 and 2019, reaching the highest value of roughly $5.89 billion in 2019. However, this peak was followed by a noticeable decline in the subsequent years, dropping to $4.0 billion in 2020 and further to about $1.56 billion in 2021.
- Revenues
- Revenues exhibited steady growth from 2005 to 2014, increasing from approximately $2.42 billion to $10.76 billion. The increase accelerated significantly after 2011, with revenues surpassing $13 billion in 2018 and reaching their highest level of about $14.38 billion in 2019. Afterward, revenues declined to approximately $13.45 billion in 2020 and further to $10.98 billion in 2021, indicating a reversal in the previous growth trend during these two years.
- Net Profit Margin
- The net profit margin improved substantially over the decade, starting at 6.63% in 2005 and reaching over 30% from 2013 to 2016, peaking at 32.95% in 2014. Thereafter, it showed fluctuations, with a marked decrease to 20.69% in 2017, followed by a rebound to 32.93% in 2018 and its highest margin of 40.96% in 2019. The margin then declined noticeably in the last two years of the data, dropping to 29.76% in 2020 and further to 14.17% in 2021. This decline corresponds with the decreases observed in net income and revenues in the same period.
- Overall Insights
- The data reveals a period of strong financial growth from 2005 to 2014, characterized by increasing revenues, net income, and improving profit margins. The company reached its peak financial performance around 2019, followed by a marked downturn in 2020 and 2021. The declines in net income and revenues during these years, alongside the decreasing profit margins, suggest challenges impacting profitability and top-line growth, potentially warranting further investigation into underlying causes.
