Chugai Pharmaceutical (4519 JP) shares declined 2% since we published our bearish note on the company in December. We remain bearish on the name.
Chugai is betting big on Actemra, Hemlibra, and Ronapreve for achieving 2022 revenue target. However, these have bleak outlook due to competition and uncertainty regarding COVID-19 prevalence globally.
Chugai does not have any big launches expected this year. Pipeline has less visibility for compensating the revenue loss from the patent expired products.
