Biogen Q2 revenue rises 3% to $2.7 billion; full-year EPS guidance cut to $12-$13
Biogen reported second-quarter 2026 total revenue of $2.7 billion, up 3% from a year earlier, but diluted EPS fell sharply as deal-related charges and the Apellis acquisition weighed on results. The company cut its full-year 2026 Non-GAAP diluted EPS guidance to $12.00 to $13.00, down from $14.25 to $15.25 in April, which lowers the outlook for shareholders.
