What's Going On With Biotech Contract Service Firm Catalent Stock Today?
Portfolio Pulse from Vandana Singh
Catalent Inc's (CTLT) shares are trading lower due to its significant exposure to Sarepta Therapeutics Inc (SRPT) following disappointing data from a pivotal gene therapy trial. Sarepta accounted for nearly 10% of total revenue and roughly 30% of non-COVID biologics revenue in fiscal 2023 for Catalent. The company anticipates 30% Y/Y growth in non-COVID biologics revenue for FY24, primarily fueled by a 60%-plus expansion attributed to Sarepta. However, if Sarepta's Elevidys' label expansion falls short of expectations, it could significantly impact Catalent's future.
