In October, Lilly agreed to acquire Point Biopharma in an all-cash deal valued at $1.4 billion to gain access to its experimental therapies that enable precise targeting of cancer. Lilly, which has offered to buy Point Biopharma shares at $12.50 a piece and has all regulatory approvals for the deal, said the price will remain the same during the extended period. The tender offer has been extended in order for the companies to satisfy the minimum tender condition.

REUTERS/Mike Segar/File PhotoAug 8 (Reuters) - Eli Lilly (LLY.N) on Tuesday raised its annual forecasts after beating estimates for quarterly results, driven by strong demand for its new diabetes drug Mounjaro, ahead of a decision on its use as a weight-loss treatment. The company is leaning on Mounjaro, approved last May in the U.S. for diabetes, to soften the hit from insulin price cuts and competition for cancer therapy Alimta. A decision on Mounjaro to treat obesity, expected later this year, could help the drugmaker tap a multi-billion dollar market. Lilly now expects annual revenue in range of $33.4 billion to $33.9 billion, compared with its prior range of $31.2 billion to $31.7 billion.

Eli Lilly (LLY) reported a noisy third-quarter before the opening bell Thursday, but the numbers did not change our thesis in what we think is the best long-term growth story in large cap pharma. On the bottom line, Eli Lilly grew its adjusted earnings-per-share by 12% to $1.98, beating the consensus forecast of $1.92, according to Refinitiv. Bottom line Another messy quarter for Eli Lilly but one that has little impact on what we believe is still a compelling story. Verzenio revenue of $618 million beat estimates of $615 million Jardiance revenue of $573 million beat estimates of $495 million Taltz revenue of $679 million missed estimates of $682 million Retevmo revenue of $40.5 million missed estimates of $52 million.

Oct 31 (Reuters) - Wall Street analysts will be focusing on sales of Eli Lilly and Co's (LLY.N) newly approved diabetes drug Mounjaro when the company reports results on Tuesday, as sales of its older drugs come under pressure from increased competition and low pricing. The company's sales could quickly jump once Lilly gets more insurers to cover its costs, according to Risinger. Analysts expect Mounjaro sales of $81 million in the third quarter, months into its U.S. launch, according to Refinitiv data. Lilly's sales are expected to increase to $30.23 billion in 2023, versus reported sales of $24.54 billion in 2021, with Mounjaro expected to bring in $1.34 billion in sales and become the company's third-biggest selling drug, according to Refinitiv data. Growth from older drugs such as Humalog and Alimta has slowed downTHE FUNDAMENTALS** Q3 sales expected to grow 1.8% to $6.89 billion.
