Bayer's Key Pharma Products Face Competitive Risk -- Market Talk

Dow Jones
05/29

0815 GMT - Bayer's pharmaceutical business has good momentum but faces risks over the medium term from potential competition to key products like its Kerendia kidney drug and asundexian for stroke prevention, Jefferies analysts say. The German group's pharma division should deliver annual sales growth of 2% over the 2025-2030 period, compared with the average growth rate of 5% among peers, according to Jefferies. Asundexian's potential market is a lot smaller after a trial for a type of heart arrhythmia known as atrial fibrillation failed and Bristol Myers Squibb's rival treatment milvexian could have an edge, they add. For Bayer's Kerendia, momentum is good for now, but the threat of competition looms on the horizon with AstraZeneca and Mineralys Therapeutics developing a new class of drugs, Jefferies says. Bayer shares fall 1.3%. (adria.calatayud@wsj.com)
