Eli Lilly Co. Q2 FY2025 Earnings Transcript - Eli Lilly (NYSE:LLY)

NEW YORK, AUG 7 – Orforglipron's weight-loss results lag behind competitors, triggering a 12% drop in Eli Lilly shares despite strong earnings and raised revenue forecasts for the full year.

  • On Thursday, Eli Lilly shares declined as much as 12% in New York premarket trading after trial data for its new weight-loss drug showed underperformance despite strong earnings.
  • On Thursday, Eli Lilly's experimental weight-loss pill delivered a 12.4% body weight reduction over 72 weeks but fell short of the 15% benchmark set by Wegovy over 68 weeks.
  • Lilly lifted sales and EPS guidance, with full-year estimates now at $60B–$62B and $21.75–$23.00, surpassing Wall Street expectations.
  • Lilly's share decline sparked bids in Novo Nordisk shares, and if losses hold through the cash session, it could mark the largest single-day drop since Oct. 9, 2008.
  • The U.S. Food and Drug Administration is reviewing a high-dose oral Wegovy for potential approval later this year, and Lilly plans to file for approval before the end of 2025, as analysts project the market will reach $150 billion by the early 2030s.
