Q1 2022: solid sales figures, however slight negative effect of generics – Neutral vs Buy

Ipsen published Q1 2022 solid sales figures 3% ahead of CS. Somatuline is more or less flat at EUR286m (EUR28.7m expected) showing that generics started to have negative impact (however limited yet). Decapeptyl (EU129.2m) and Dysport (EU118.4m) continue to be very solid. However, with the recent share price increase we decided to downgrade to Neutral vs Buy. We believe the company is fairly valued with its existing business. We are now waiting for the next BD deal before any potential change in our rating (and TP).

Since 1996, Bryan, Garnier & Co has been growing with an absolute conviction that the investment banking landscape would experience a major revolution: most of the large local generalist banking groups will disappear to the benefit of a handful of global powerhouses, and an emerging group of independent, highly specialised boutique investment banks.
