Bulls

China remains a major long-term growth opportunity for a2 and should help to drive continued margin improvement.

Bears

A2 relies heavily on only two major suppliers, which risks price hikes, supply challenges, or future competition.

Company Profile

A2 Milk is a New Zealand licensor and marketer of fresh milk, infant formula, and other dairy products that lack the A1 beta-casein protein. The firm was founded in 2000 by Corran McLachlan, who developed a genetic test to determine which proteins a cow produces in its milk, and business partner Howard Paterson. The company has been through a tumultuous history of receivership, legal battles, and strategic shifts, but emerged in its current structure in 2006 and listed publicly in March 2013.
