Alvotech ( (ALVO) ) just unveiled an update.

On January 29, 2026, Alvotech reported that it had entered into a licensing and settlement agreement with Regeneron and Bayer, resolving all remaining global patent disputes over its biosimilar to Eylea 2mg (aflibercept 40 mg/mL), which is already approved for marketing in the European Economic Area, the United Kingdom and Japan. Together with a previously disclosed deal granting a late‑2026 U.S. license entry date, the settlement gives Alvotech worldwide rights to manufacture and supply its aflibercept biosimilar to commercial partners, and sets staggered launch dates: as of January 1, 2026 in the UK and Canada, May 1, 2026 in the European Economic Area and most other non‑U.S. markets, and November 1, 2026 in Japan for all approved indications, a move that positions the company and its regional partners to accelerate global rollout of a key ophthalmology biosimilar and potentially increase competitive pressure in retinal disease treatments.

The most recent analyst rating on (ALVO) stock is a Hold with a $5.00 price target. To see the full list of analyst forecasts on Alvotech stock, see the ALVO Stock Forecast page.
