Eli Lilly’s revenue increased by +36.1% compared to the same quarter last year. The company spends up to 20% of its revenue on research and development of new drugs. This positions the company as a leader in one of the most challenging areas of medical research.

In addition, drugs under development, such as lebrikizumab (for atopic dermatitis) and orforgiprone (a cardiometabolic drug), have significant potential, which will also strengthen the market position.
