RBCによると、バウシュ・ヘルス社の第1四半期の処方箋総数は、連邦政府の医薬品価格プログラムからの離脱によって打撃を受けた。

-- RBCキャピタル・マーケッツは月曜日のレポートで、バウシュ・ヘルス(BHC)の第1四半期の処方箋総数は、同社が2025年10月に米国の連邦医薬品価格プログラムから撤退することによって悪影響を受ける可能性が高いと指摘した。 RBCのアナリストによると、同社の主力製品である消化器疾患治療薬「リファキシミン(Xifaxan)」の550ミリグラム製剤の処方箋数は、第4四半期の1.1%減に続き、第1四半期には前年同期比6.2%減少した。アナリストらは、処方箋数の減少は価格改定によって部分的に相殺されると予想し、リファキシミンの売上高予測を4億8,700万ドルから4億8,000万ドルに修正した。 レポートによると、同社の第1四半期の売上高は24億3,000万ドルと予測されており、市場予想の24億1,000万ドルを下回っている。 投資家は、リファキシミンの特許をめぐる係争中の訴訟に注目する可能性が高い。アナリストらは、バウシュ・ヘルスが、2028年1月に予定されているリファキシミン(Xifaxan)のジェネリック医薬品化後、バウシュ・アンド・ロム(BLCO)の資産を収益化する計画、およびソルタ・メディカルの美容医療事業の成長回復を指摘した。 バウシュ・ヘルスは、水曜日の市場取引終了後に第1四半期の決算を発表する予定だ。 RBCは同社の株価レーティングを「セクター・パフォーム」に据え置き、目標株価を10ドルから9ドルに引き下げた。
