Viatris (VTRS), a global healthcare company, has had a mixed fiscal journey. The company's
Q2 earnings are expected to decline and
Q1 earnings and sales have lagged estimates. The
U.S. Department of Justice has relieved Mylan, a Viatris unit, from an antitrust investigation in the generic drug industry. To steer its course towards continued
growth, Viatris has met its 2023 financial targets and set goals for 2024. The company has also completed
divestitures of its Over-the-Counter business and appointed a new board director,
Rogerio Vivaldi Coelho, along with a new Chief Commercial Officer,
Corinne Le Goff. However, weak sales from Lipitor and Norvasc impacted its Q1 earnings, resulting in lowered annual forecasts. Notably, the company has garnered the attention of Wall Street analysts and Greenlight has decided to repurchase
Viatris. The company has positioned itself among the world's most
sustainable companies according to TIME. This is underpinned by successful partnerships with Idorsia and Ocuphire Pharma and R&D collaborations. Furthermore,
Viatris's robust first quarter of
2024 financial results look promising towards its guidance ranges, encouraging stakeholders to deem it a smart long-term investment.
