The key drivers of the business are the in-line and new product portfolios, with the company anticipating that over 90% of its business in 2025 will come from these portfolios. They project a low to mid single-digit compound annual growth rate (CAGR) from 2020 to 2025. Bristol-Myers Squibb is focused on bringing transformational medicines to patients globally and recognizes the strong execution of its teams in accelerating momentum for its new product portfolio.

One of the products highlighted during the meeting was Camzyos, which has shown positive patient and physician feedback, increasing adoption, and approvals in multiple regions. The company expects continued growth for Camzyos and anticipates sustained growth in 2023 and beyond. The recent approval of VALOR and expansion into the European market were mentioned as positive developments for Camzyos.

Bristol-Myers Squibb's plans for product and service include diversifying their business and reducing concentration. By 2025, they aim to have over 90% of their business come from their in-line and new product portfolios. They have specific objectives for their new product portfolio, with a target of reaching $10 billion to $13 billion in revenue by 2025. The company remains confident in the progress of their new product portfolio, with Camzyos performing well and on track with launch expectations.

The company's outlook for the quarter and year includes an update for 2023. Bristol-Myers Squibb expects a significant change in expectations for Revlimid and Pomalyst for this year, but these changes are not expected to have a lasting impact. Despite this, the company remains encouraged by the strength of their in-line and new products, as well as the progress made with their pipeline. They are confident in their ability to roughly double revenue from new products in 2023 and have reaffirmed all their financial commitments for the 2020-2025 period.

In conclusion, Bristol-Myers Squibb's second quarter 2023 earnings call provided insights into the company's updated outlook for the year.
