Company Report

Eli Lilly: Positive Tirzepatide Data in Obstructive Sleep Apnea Reinforces Drug's Massive Potential

We are holding our fair value estimate for Eli Lilly steady after the company reported positive tirzepatide (Mounjaro/Zepbound) data in treating obstructive sleep apnea and obesity. We had largely expected the positive results, which support our robust peak annual sales forecast for the drug at over $60 billion annually across all indications. The solid data does help reinforce the company’s wide moat.

Bulls Say, Bears Say

Bulls

Lilly is developing a new Alzheimer’s drug (donanemab) that could become a major blockbuster, especially because the FDA appears to have a lower threshold for approval for this disease.

Bears

The risks to success for Alzheimer’s drug donanemab remain high both in clinical development and insurance coverage.
