Viatris shares surge 39.8% over past year, outpacing health care sector by 38.7%

Viatris, a global pharmaceutical company with a $15.2 billion market cap, has outperformed the broader healthcare sector despite recent headwinds. The Pennsylvania-based firm, which operates across 120 countries, has gained 39.8% over the past year, substantially ahead of the State Street Health Care Select Sector SPDR Fund's 1.1% decline. Shares have risen 10.7% over three months and 33.3% over six months, though they remain 19.9% below their 52-week high of $16.47. Viatris reported fourth-quarter revenue of $3.7 billion, up 5% year over year, with adjusted earnings per share of $0.57. Strong performance in branded drugs and emerging markets was offset by restructuring charges and pricing pressure in generics. Shares fell 5.2% following the announcement.

Viatris wins approval for Effexor in Japan to treat generalised anxiety disorder

Viatris has received approval from Japan's Ministry of Health, Labour and Welfare for Effexor SR capsules to treat generalized anxiety disorder in adults, making it the first and only approved treatment for GAD in Japan. The drug was already approved in the country for major depressive disorder. The approval addresses a significant unmet need, as a recent study reported probable GAD prevalence of 7.6% in Japan's general population. The decision was based on a Phase 3 trial that demonstrated superior anxiolytic effects versus placebo at eight weeks, with all seven secondary endpoints met. Effexor was generally well tolerated with low discontinuation rates. Viatris' Japanese portfolio includes innovative products such as Spydia Nasal Spray, with several investigational therapies in development. Effexor is approved for GAD in over 80 countries worldwide.

Longer-term growth potential includes drug candidates selatogrel and cenerimod. Viatris anticipates over $11 billion in cash available for deployment through 2030, with approximately 50% allocated to business development. The company recently identified $650 million in cost savings over three years through an enterprise-wide strategic review.

Viatris shares surge 37.8% in six months, but analysts warn against buying despite cheap 5.8× P/E valuation

Viatris shares have surged 37.8% over the past six months, outpacing the S&P 500 by 34.7 percentage points, trading at $14.11. Despite the recent rally, analysts remain cautious about the pharmaceutical company's prospects. The company's fundamentals show concerning trends. Revenue grew at just 3.7% annually over the past five years, whilst earnings per share declined 9.8% annually during the same period, indicating deteriorating profitability. Most notably, Viatris posted a negative 2.6% five-year average return on invested capital, meaning management lost money whilst attempting business expansion. The stock currently trades at 5.8× forward price-to-earnings ratio. Analysts suggest the valuation appears optically cheap but warn of significant downside risk given the weak underlying fundamentals.
