Novo Nordisk Stock Outlook: Can the Ozempic Boom Fuel More Gains in 2025?


Novo Nordisk (NYSE: NVO) has demonstrated robust performance in the pharmaceutical sector, particularly in diabetes and obesity care. As of February 7, 2025, the stock is trading at $86.42, with an intraday high of $89.82 and a low of $86.15.


Fundamental Analysis

In 2024, Novo Nordisk reported a 26% increase in sales, reaching DKK 290.4 billion, and a 26% rise in operating profit. This growth was driven by strong demand for its weight-loss drugs, Ozempic and Wegovy. Ozempic sales surged by 7% to $4.71 billion, while Wegovy's sales nearly doubled to DKK 19.9 billion. The company anticipates a sales growth of 16%-24% in 2025, with operating profit expected to grow between 19%-27%.


Analysts maintain a "Strong Buy" consensus for NVO, with a 12-month average price target of $137.50, suggesting a potential upside of approximately 59%.


Technical Analysis

Currently, NVO is trading below its 50-day and 200-day moving averages, indicating a bearish trend. The stock's Relative Strength Index (RSI) is neutral, suggesting neither overbought nor oversold conditions. The immediate resistance level is around $87.97, with support at $85.11. A decisive move above the resistance could signal a bullish reversal.


Market Conditions

The global obesity drug market is expanding, with Novo Nordisk and Eli Lilly as key players. Novo faces challenges such as supply constraints and competition from Eli Lilly's upcoming oral obesity drug, orforglipron. Additionally, potential U.S. tariffs could impact Novo's profitability.


Outlook

Despite competitive pressures and market challenges, Novo Nordisk's strong product portfolio and strategic initiatives position it well for growth in the coming year. Investors should monitor supply chain developments, competitive dynamics, and regulatory changes that could affect the company's performance.
