This summary was created by AI, based on 24 opinions in the last 12 months.

Pfizer Inc. (PFE) is facing significant challenges as it navigates a patent cliff following the success of its COVID-19 vaccine. Many experts are concerned about its ability to generate new blockbuster drugs and the sustainability of its high dividend yields, which currently range from 6.4% to 7%. Several reviews emphasize that while the dividend is attractive, the company lacks earnings momentum and has uncertainty surrounding its drug pipeline. The stock trades at low earnings multiples, suggesting it may be undervalued, but experts warn that the lack of growth drivers could limit upside potential. Overall, patience may be required for investors looking for signs of recovery or growth in the company's future, especially as its recent acquisitions are yet to yield significant results.

BUY
(Market Call Minute.) At this price, you can be a buyer and sell at $26 or so.
TOP PICK
He has a model price of $40.10, which is a 76% positive differential. Has up its dividends considerably and has positive earnings revisions.
DON'T BUY
Their pipeline has just not produced new drugs. When you buy this stock now, you are getting a series of cash flows on the existing drugs, but a lot of them are coming off patent. Just acquired a company that has a very small drug, which to him, is a sign of desperation.
DON'T BUY
This is the worst of times for giant pharmaceutical companies. Now spending more on marketing than they are on research/development. Ongoing huge costs of developing new drugs that are safe are a drag. Also, cost of litigation remains a huge burden. Probably safer with the generic companies.
BUY
Has a 2-pronged approach to the drug industry with Teva Pharmaceuticals (TEVA-Q) as his growth generic company and this one as his value dividend play. It is giving great income until their pipeline improves.
PAST TOP PICK
(A Top Pick Feb 1/07. Down 10% including dividends.) This one has been the bane of all value managers. His model price is $37.57, a 66% positive differential. This one needs a catalyst.
PAST TOP PICK
(A Top Pick Dec 18/06. Down 7.4%.) Got decimated when they lost a lawsuit on Lipitor. Sold his holdings.
TOP PICK
This sector does well in a slowing economy. 5.6% yield. Has a war chest of almost $30 million in cash to be used for acquisitions. Share buybacks keep increasing the dividends. Mid/long-term pipeline is very promising. Yield and cash limit downside risk. A lot of potential upside surprises.
PAST TOP PICK
(A Past Top Pick Dec 21/06. Down 10.8%.) This one is probably the bane of all the value managers. Even boosted their dividend by 10%. His model price is $40.53, a 74% positive differential. If they could do anything to thin out that balance sheet, it would be a huge positive for the stock.
DON'T BUY
He threw in the towel last quarter and sold his holdings. The problem is they just haven't been developing new drugs and as time goes by, you get closer to patent expiration.
DON'T BUY
Big questions with drug companies are “How big is their pipeline of drugs and development?” “What’s the patent life of their big drugs?” and “How vulnerable are they to erosion from generics?”.
COMMENT
Pharma as an industry as a model is really at a crossroads. The chemical-based side is giving way to the biology-side of science. They have a lot of money, but do not have a good pipeline. The biology side is just the opposite. They have the largest phase 2 pipeline that they've ever had and that could translate by 2009 into the biggest phase 3. They own some, but are tempted to pull the plug.
PAST TOP PICK
(A Past Top Pick. Dec 5/06. Down 4.8%.) 5% yield is why he still likes it. All of the bad news is basically known. Sold their consumer products division for $19 billion and will use the cash for acquisitions, share buybacks, dividend increases and increase research. Recession resistant.
WAIT
It has all the value characteristics that he loves. Has a lot of net cash. Very cheap. Concerned about administration changes when the US election occurs and that their biggest selling drug Lipitor is about 30% of their sales.
PAST TOP PICK
(A Top Pick Dec 26/06. Down 12.6%.) Still undervalued. Hopefully there’s pressure on management to do something. His model price is $38.27. a 68.5% positive differential.
