Company Analysis: Merck & Co

The publisher explores Merck & Co’s prescription pharmaceutical performance and outlook over 2019-29.
Snapshot

  • Overview - Merck & Co’s revenue growth will be fairly stable over the forecast period, as growth from Keytruda and Gardasil will be offset by declines from Januvia, Janumet, and the spin-off of Women’s Health and Legacy Brands.
  • Key themes - [1] Keytruda will see strong growth over the forecast period until loss of exclusivity in 2028, although 2020 growth will be negatively impacted by two large price reductions in Japan [2] Merck’s metabolic portfolio will decline significantly due to patent expiries for key drugs Januvia and Janumet [3] Merck’s late-stage pipeline is heavily skewed towards label expansions for its existing oncology portfolio, with only a few new drug launches expected over the forecast period.
