Where it stands
The strong performance allowed the company to lift its margin outlook for the year. In the same announcement GSK laid out a three‑year cost‑saving programme aimed at delivering $2.5 billion of efficiencies.
The plan focuses on trimming expenses in mature product portfolios, streamlining procurement and tightening supply‑chain operations. Savings will be redirected to late‑stage research and development, and the company disclosed that its global research headquarters will be relocated to Arizona, next to AstraZeneca’s existing campus, a move described by Fierce Biotech as shifting the HQ to “AZ’s backyard.” The Wall Street Journal said the restructuring is intended to fast‑track new drug candidates, while Fierse Pharma quoted the CEO’s target of $2.5 billion in cost reductions.
