0546 GMT - Sandoz's sales miss is disappointing but prospects should improve in the second half due to a wave of upcoming biosimilar launches, RBC Capital Markets analysts say in a note. The Swiss generics maker stuck to its 2025 outlook, and confirmed it can absorb its current tariff exposure, despite 1Q sales that missed expectations on weaker demand in North America, they say. Sandoz has called out a lower private label pricing for its autoimmune disease treatment adalimumab, which will likely be the focus of analysts and investors, they add. (helena.smolak@wsj.com)
