GlaxoSmithKline ( (GB:GSK) ) has shared an announcement.
GSK has reached a voluntary agreement with the U.S. Administration to reduce the cost of its prescription medicines, particularly its extensive respiratory portfolio used by more than 40 million Americans with asthma and COPD, and to adopt a more balanced pricing strategy for new products across developed markets. The deal, which covers both GSK and its HIV-focused affiliate ViiV Healthcare, includes lower prices for certain Medicaid medicines, a direct purchasing platform offering up to 66% savings on most inhaled respiratory products, and participation in the Strategic Active Pharmaceutical Ingredients Reserve by securing a U.S. reserve of albuterol, while also providing both companies with clarity on future U.S. pricing rules and a three-year exclusion from s232 tariffs; these measures, combined with GSK’s previously announced $30 billion U.S. R&D and manufacturing investment plan and expansion of high-skilled jobs, are set to strengthen its U.S. footprint and support greater affordability and supply resilience for critical respiratory drugs.
The most recent analyst rating on (GB:GSK) stock is a Hold with a £17.00 price target. To see the full list of analyst forecasts on GlaxoSmithKline stock, see the GB:GSK Stock Forecast page.
