This development aligns with the company’s ongoing "Pivot to Growth" strategy. While the company’s shares saw a rise in pre-market trading, the focus remains on its financial performance. Additionally, Teva’s CEO, Richard Francis, addressed potential U.S. tariffs, stating that the company is well-positioned to handle these despite uncertainties in the sector. He highlighted that 70% of Teva’s generics business operates outside the United States, which may mitigate the impact of any tariffs. Most of Teva’s branded drugs, including its largest drug Austedo for Huntington’s Disease, are manufactured within the U.S. These recent developments reflect Teva’s strategic positioning in the pharmaceutical industry.
