Roche Holding AG, the Swiss pharmaceutical company, continues to make headlines for its diverse range of activities in the current fiscal year. Despite some setbacks, including a fall in Roche shares owing to modest 2024 outlook and a significant cut in the pipeline following research setbacks and a drop in sales, the company has managed to secure several key wins. These include the European Commission's approval of the subcutaneous version of Ocrevus, an encouraging Phase 1 obesity drug data, and a $3.1 billion deal for an obesity drug maker. However, its first quarter sales were impacted by currency headwinds and lower COVID-19 related sales, leading to a 6% decrease. Nevertheless, the company confirmed its FY24 view. Roche is set to increase its dividend to CHF9.60, benefiting shareholders. The market remains divided about the stock's current valuation, with some analysts suggesting it's undervalued at $33 and others pointing to a pessimistic margin forecast.
