Citi has increased its price target for Novo Nordisk to DKK330 ahead of the company's Q2 results, citing strong sales from the Wegovy pill launch. The broker raised its 2026 sales and operating income estimates by 4-5%, and earnings per share forecasts for 2027-2030 by about 7%, driven by currency effects and strong second-quarter trends for Wegovy. Despite some price pressure in obesity and diabetes treatments, the new oral Wegovy is expected to contribute significantly to revenue. Citi expects Novo Nordisk to possibly raise its full-year guidance due to strong prescription trends, but maintains a neutral rating as this upgrade is already priced in.
