Viatris: Looks Cheap, But Faces Continued Contraction (NASDAQ:VTRS)

Viatris: Looks Cheap, But Faces Continued Contraction Summary Viatris continues to struggle with shrinking revenues, operational setbacks, and persistent quality issues since its 2019 merger. Despite appearing cheap on adjusted metrics, Viatris lacks organic growth and faces ongoing execution challenges, limiting confidence in a turnaround. Net debt has modestly declined to $13.5 billion, aided by asset sales and share buybacks, but leverage remains a concern. I remain cautious on VTRS, acknowledging potential political tailwinds but seeing no immediate catalyst for re-rating or growth.
