Investor Insights

This summary was created by AI, based on 2 opinions in the last 12 months.

Experts agree that Sanofi-Aventis (SNY-N) is a strong investment with potential for growth. The company has a diverse portfolio of products, including treatments for MS, myeloma, and dermatitis, and is also prudently managing its cash reserves to reduce long term debt and buy back shares. There is consensus that the stock has potential for a significant upside, with a 4.2% yield and an analysts' price target of $57.50. Despite a recent dip due to the spin-off of its consumer healthcare operations, experts believe the stock is now breaking out and could trade in a higher range.

TOP PICK

Stockchase Research Editor: Michael O'Reilly

This french pharma company, developer of treatments for MS, myeloma and dermatitis (among many other products) is a TOP PICK. It trades at 25x earnings, under 2x book value and supports a 27% ROE. Cash reserves are being prudently used to reduce long term debt and the company is also buying back shares. We recommend setting a stop-loss at $42, looking to achieve $58 -- upside potential of 18%. Yield 4.2%

(Analysts’ price target is $57.50)

Trevor Rose’s Insights - Trevor’s most-liked answers from 5i Research

SNY touched the bottom of its range in October 2023 on weak earnings and news that it would spin-off its consumer healthcare operations. The stock looks to be breaking out and while very hard to predict we think it is possible it trades in a higher new range. The drop last year was likely a one-off driven by the spin-off news, and barring a significant news item as such or consistently weak earnings, we would be surprised if it got back to the low-end of its range.

WEAK BUY

Defensive and probably won't hurt you. Has low, steady growth with reasonable dividend growth. They are developing a Covid vaccine. It's as good as other drug companies, though slightly cheaper.

Stockchase Research Editor: Michael O'Reilly With FDA approval to expand use of one of its key anti-inflammatory treatments, we again reiterate, SNY as a TOP PICK.

TOP PICK

Stockchase Research Editor: Michael O'Reilly SNY is a French biotech that produces a wide range of vaccines and pharmaceuticals by prescription and is reiterated as a TOP PICK. Its new management team has improved its internal drug pipeline and expanded margins and EPS since joining in 2018. It beat recent analyst earnings expectations by 16% and is managing a 25% ROE. It pays an annual dividend that should be announced in the next couple of months with a yield backed by a payout ratio under 50% of cash flow. We recommend trailing up the stop (from $45) to $47, looking towards an initial target of $64.50 -- 27% upside. Yield 3.85% (Analysts’ price target is $64.12)

BUY

Given the size of the business, the debt is extremely manageable. Steady eddy dividend grower by mid-high single digits over time. Doesn't depend on one large drug, lots in the pipeline. When things get frothy, will underperform, but when things turn the other way it will do well. A pretty good bet.

Pharma & Healthcare

WATCH

Trades around 15x PE and pays around a 4% dividend. Their future is in the vaccine side, but flu rather than Covid. Interesting company and worth studying further.

Pharma & Healthcare

PAST TOP PICK

(A Top Pick Mar 12/20, Up 36%) A world-class vaccine-maker. He likes pharmas going forward. SNY is facing a patent cliff, but have bought and are developing new drugs to solve this. He's happy to own and buy this.

Pharma & Healthcare

DON'T BUY

Done well recently as part of the vaccine trade. No real revenue growth over the last 5 years. Stagnant profits. Decent dividend. See his Top Picks today for exposure to healthcare.

Pharma & Healthcare

DON'T BUY

They are waiting for approval for their vaccine against COVID in Japan. They are pretty much an oncology firm. You have to compare against other companies in the sector. This one does fine with a PE of 8.8 times and the payout ratio is quite low. The dividends and cash flow are not growing, however. They have to come out with a blockbuster product. See his top picks today for a preferable.

Pharma & Healthcare

BUY

A very good company. Pays a 3.5% dividend yield. Historically, he expected more from their Covid vaccine, though.
