Firstly, Amgen is not unique among biotechs: other biotechs also make real, FDA-approved products that generate real revenue. Secondly, Amgen really has two big products and not much else: Epogen and Nupogen. Its approvals take the form of expanded label uses for these products. That doesn't take away from their success with these products, but the fact remains that aside from these drugs Amgen's pipeline consists of "promises of drugs or cures several years down the road." And Amgen's pipeline cupboard is pretty bare for a company with its size and science. Amgen could appreciate significantly, maybe even 50% - this will largely be contingent upon market conditions.
