Novo Nordisk is still the GLP-1 king, with over 65% market share and blockbuster drugs like Ozempic and Wegovy continuing to drive global growth. The recent stock correction presents a rare long-term buying opportunity, supported by a strong pipeline, manufacturing expansion, and international momentum. The valuation is attractive relative to historical metrics, with a +3% yield and significant room for capital appreciation as demand continues to outpace supply.
CNBC's Silvia Amaro takes a look at the rise and fall in Novo Nordisk shares.
Novo Nordisk faces slowing revenue growth, weak Q2 2025 results, and a more conservative outlook, signaling challenges ahead. Competition from Eli Lilly is intensifying, forcing Novo to increase marketing spend, which risks margin compression and weaker shareholder returns. Despite a significant share price drop, Novo Nordisk remains overvalued with a forward P/FCF ratio of 35, far above sector medians.
