Amgen issues $4.0 billion of senior notes in four tranches due 2031 to 2056
Amgen sold $4.0 billion of senior unsecured notes on February 17, 2026, split across four maturities from 2031 to 2056. The coupons range from 4.200% on the 2031 notes to 5.650% on the 2056 notes, and the longest tranche carries the highest coupon. The sale adds to Amgen's debt load, and the rates show what investment-grade buyers demanded for long-dated paper in early 2026.
