Does Pfizer Stock Ever Go Up?

I cannot consider Pfizer’s handling of the covid vaccine a success. I will leave the safety debates to others and focus on two other major failures. Both of these failures could be business school and public health / public policy case studies for decades.

1). Public health and policy: Pfizer leadership did not control the message, the resulting narrative or set an understanding for a new type (mRNA) vaccine. Pfizer allowed incorrect messaging about efficacy, herd and “protecting others” to run rampant. HCPs were not informed or prepared to answer questions about MOA so patients found their answer of choice in the internet cesspool. Subsequent mRNA vaccines now have a steep hill of trust to climb and it is a slippery slope that Pfizer created. The future promise of mRNA vaccination is tarnished, if not compromised.
2). Financial: Pfizer sold billions in a product and market that did not exist in the forecast. Yet even with billions pouring in, Pfizer became less and less connected to reality in every new forecast while squandering newfound revenue on something (maybe acquisitions?) that have produced no accretive value. In the future, before the next pandemic comes, academics will tear apart the bone headed decisions that reduced company value and reputation during a period when both could have soared

Q1 revenue miss of nearly 2%, down nearly 8% YOY. Shotgun spray of excuses from decline in covid products to tariff and policy.

The biggest gap in self awareness is in missing the paxlovid and vaccine targets. It’s as if we have no understanding of how badly we failed to forecast, business plan or manage public sentiments around those products. Reduced Vaccine uptake and related risks to infants and young children are on the hands of this sorry lot. Health care policy courses will teach about these failures for decades
 


I feel sorry for long term employees who have “Wowed” their manager and received precious stock options. With urgent product launches, 25 years ago stock was $40 today $23. What a great place to spend your career!!!
 




I remember years ago management, often military, would discuss making good impressions of yourself at company meetings. You were so lucky to work for such a great company!!! Learn who to kiss up to in order to advance your career. Only the favored chosen few would receive precious stock options. It was important to “Wow” management. After wasting time for 25 years with lots of begging and urgent product launches, the loyal company employees can now cash their stock options. After 25 years the stock price was $40 now $23. What a company!!!
 


StockStory reasons that PFE is not a preferred choice as a value stock

“Why Does PFE Give Us Pause?


Core business is underperforming as its organic revenue has disappointed over the past two years, suggesting it might need acquisitions to stimulate growth


Free cash flow margin shrank by 8.9 percentage points over the last five years, suggesting the company is consuming more capital to stay competitive


Waning returns on capital imply its previous profit engines are losing steam”

My take: all of these are management failures. Not a way to run a company and malfeasance by the BOD not to take action to correct the ship

Weak Board of Directors…Weak Leadership
 


I feel sorry for the hardest working non-executive employees. They “Wowed” higher ups for precious stock options. I laugh at the back stabbing ass kissers who also received previous stock options.
 




For the last 20 years only the highest performing employees were honored with precious stock options. It is time to cash and live the life you have worked so hard for. What a career!!!
 




It is now time for the loyal long term career “work horse” employees to cash their stock options. You have dedicated your career to this fantastic company and now it is time to collect your reward and cash out. You deserve it.

Good thought but not possible. Any exercisable options are underwater. PFE remains at 10 year lows and options expire in ten years. PFE as an investment sucks because senior leadership sucks even harder
 


Those who paid their dues over the last 25 years and were members of the exclusive stock option club, should now cash company stock and collect their reward. Your hard work has paid off.
