Walgreens Boots Alliance (WBA) has faced a turbulent period, indicated by its
1.3% and
3.4% stock price drops,
$691 million and
$397 million market cap reductions, and the pressure from institutional investors who might take strict actions. Amid fierce criticism, Wentworth's strategy was deemed unsatisfactory while investor lawsuit threats loomed. Discouraging average ratings of '
Reduce' by analysts portrayed a gross picture. Nevertheless, notable strides include declarations of a quarterly dividend, leadership appointments, collaboration with BARDA for clinical trials, and
$400 Million and
$1.1 Billion proceeds from the sale of Cencora shares were enforced. Despite a partnership strategy to drive WBA's sourcing practices, fiscal 2024 results missed estimates by displaying a downtick. The potential sale of the company, believed to fetch £7 Billion, stalled leading the chief to step down.
Profit pressures, changing consumer behaviors, and missed earnings resulted in the 27-year low of its share prices.
