01:55 PM EDT, 08/08/2025 (MT Newswires) -- CFRA, an independent research provider, has provided MT Newswires with the following research alert. Analysts at CFRA have summarized their opinion as follows:

We widen our target by $0.50 to $8.00, 3.3x our 2026 EPS forecast, a discount to peers due to lower growth. We lift our 2025 EPS to $2.23 from $2.21 and 2026's to $2.45 from $2.42. Q2 EPS of $0.62 vs. $0.69 beat S&P Capital IQ consensus by $0.06. Revenues declined 6% Y/Y to $3,6B, primarily due to the negative impact from Indore facility issues, though still exceeded the consensus view by almost 4%. Yet, adjusted EBITDA declined 11% Y/Y to $1.1B and free cash flow saw a substantial decrease of 48% to $166.8M, reflecting ongoing operational challenges. Despite these headwinds, VTRS demonstrated resilience in certain areas, generating $79M in new product revenues during the quarter and seeing strong performance in Greater China (+9% Y/Y sales growth). VTRS reiterated its 2025 financial guidance and expects to be in the top half of the range for revenues and EPS. We anticipate future impacts from tariffs given just eight of VTRS's 37 manufacturing, distribution, R&D, and packaging sites are located in the U.S.
