West Pharmaceutical Services (WST) has been in the spotlight recently with a range of events impacting the stock. The company issued a new $494 million ESOP share offering and reported strong Q2 earnings, surpassing estimates and leading in drug development inputs and services stocks. However, its stock took a near 40% dip, raising questions of valuation. A change in CFO welcomed Robert McMahon onboard, but was followed by substantial losses, encouraging investors into a class action lawsuit. Despite this, Q2 profits have increased and guidance has been revised upwards owing to surging GLP-1 demand. Barclays remains cautious due to non-core weakness and injectable disruption risks. Amid this uncertainty, WST is set to participate in multiple investor conferences in September 2025. Meanwhile, the company faces legal scrutiny with multiple calls for shareholders who've experienced losses to join a class action lawsuit, contributing to a mixed market sentiment.
