Bayer has had an interesting trajectory over the past year, outperforming its medical stocks. Despite an increased short interest by 209.8%, the company's shares have experienced a 40% rebound after years of losses. Positive Q1 results, better than expected and propelled, in part, by strong demand for the company's cancer drugs, helped the German conglomerate's stock soar.
Goldman Sachs even raised Bayer's stock price target to EUR35 on a positive outlook. However, not all news has been good - a lawsuit related to the company's RoundUp product resulted in a $2 billion order against Bayer, causing their shares to slump. Bayer has faced numerous legal challenges which have brought uncertainty and volatility to its stock prices, but also has the potential for a turnaround amidst these challenges. There were warnings that the company's investment is not for the faint of heart. Bayer has been ramping up growth from the start of FY26, despite Q4 Loss and a cautious FY25 outlook. Their cell therapy for Parkinson's disease had a positive milestone and advances in their pipeline. Bayer's growth has been a rollercoaster, with share prices and earnings beating estimates, but also facing concerns due to ongoing lawsuits and earnings inflated by soccer transfers. Overall, Bayer's stock performance paints a picture of a company on the cusp of major breakthroughs but grappling with past challenges.
