According to RBC, the company has capitalized on its potential through the separation of its consumer segment, positioning itself to achieve the following two objectives:
1) The pharmaceutical franchise is poised for robust growth, with a promising pipeline that includes over five candidates with the potential to generate over $5 billion in revenue and 12 candidates with the potential to exceed $1 billion in revenue. Additionally, the company has more than 65 filings expected between 2026 and 2030; and
2) JNJ’s medical technology division is set to become a top-performing segment, driven by a portfolio shift and a focused approach to innovation.
“JNJ is attractively valued and poised to deliver MSD revenue growth with 1.5-2.0x leverage to EPS while returning 60% FCF to shareholders while keenly focusing on M&A,” the analysts added.
The price target implies a 17% upside potential.
JNJ shares are down 12% year-to-date.
