Zoetis Inc (ZTS-N) is a global leader in the animal health industry with a strong market position and a focus on both livestock and pet care. The company has a long history of around 65 years and was spun off from Pfizer 10 years ago. Despite a recent pullback, experts believe that the stock offers an attractive opportunity for long-term investors. Zoetis continues to invest in R&D, has a strong product pipeline, and demonstrates consistent revenue growth. With potential for growth in the pet care sector and a new pipeline of drugs, the company remains a strong investment option, albeit at a premium valuation.

Companion pets are a big thing. Growing need for protein from livestock. Above 200-day MA, but that's moving sideways. Trendlines are not fantastic. Trading at 31x, with 10% growth rate, PEG of 3, a bit expensive.

Likes the industry in general. A leader. Vets like its products. Not a lot of generic competition. Diversified in types of care. Studies show that pet spending is resilient even during slowdowns. Attractive entry point.

Shares are declining because they now face competition. It's no longer a one-horse race.

PAST TOP PICK
Zoetis Inc
(A Top Pick Jun 13/23, Up 6%)

A bit disappointing. Headwind from near-term, cyclical pressures as economy weakens and vet visits decline. Company sees itself as defensive -- people prioritize their pets, aging population, younger generation having pets instead of children. Competition on drugs, adverse press to dog pain management drug. Still likes longer, secular trend.

TOP PICK
Zoetis Inc

2/3 pet pharma, 1/3 livestock. Time to market is lower than for human pharma, not as much generic competition. Overhang from negative press about unwanted effects from painkillers -- anecdotal, not based on data. Good growth going forward. Yield is 1%.

(Analysts’ price target is $206.40)

BUY
Zoetis Inc

Livestock has come back since Covid plus, as people become wealthier, they eat more protein. Pet side is going like gangbusters. Lots of products in pipeline. Incredible run during Covid, now taking a break. Will continue to do well.

TOP PICK
Zoetis Inc

Pet division is about 2/3 of revenue, livestock makes up the rest. Around for 65 years, spun off from PFE 10 years ago. Animal health industry has very little generic competition, so product life tends to be over 25 years. Leading share globally. Invests in R&D. Pullback is attractive opportunity. Yield is 1%.

TOP PICK
Zoetis Inc
Stockchase Research Editor: Michael O’Reilly

We select ZTS, the manufacturer of livestock and companion animal pharmaceuticals as a TOP PICK.  Quarterly cash flow is growing, while shares are bought back.  It has a strong market position, confirmed by its 49% ROE.  Its modest dividend is supported by a payout ratio of 30% of cash flow.  Animal care is a certain and growing sector.  We recommend setting a stop-loss at $140, looking to achieve $226 — upside potential of 29%.  Yield 0.9%

(Analysts’ price target is $225.85)

Net income to free cashflow conversion went down.

That conversion metric is a good one. Transitioning some drugs, so growth has slowed, impacting free cashflow. Increase in R&D taking up capital. New drugs in pipeline. Story still stands. Good value compounder over time.

Their last quarter was weak, but he thinks it's a one-off event. Be believes in the CEO and company long term.

Stock's done well, especially with recent rally. For new money, wait for pullback, and we'll get that eventually. Great products, especially launch of drug for canine arthritic pain. Pet division is somewhat recession-resistant.

(A Top Pick Dec 22/22, Up 22%)

It has two parts in animal healthcare: livestock and pet care and it is the second part which has done very well. The drugs component has advantages over regular pharma companies and there are great products in the pipelines. There are only two other big players and Zoetis is the biggest of the three.

DON'T BUY
Zoetis Inc

Likes their growth. Spending on pets remains steady, a plus. But the PE is 35x, so no.
