Teva Pharmaceuticals
Teva Pharmaceuticals' revenue rose 4.3% to $17.3 billion in fiscal 2025. Its operating margin was 12.5%, up from −1.8% a year earlier. Free cash flow was $1.1 billion, up 53.3%. The diluted share count rose 2.8%.
Operating margin is operating income as a share of revenue. Free cash flow is cash from operations minus capital spending. Return on capital is after-tax operating income as a share of the money invested in the business: debt plus equity, minus cash. Market cap is the last closing share price times the latest diluted share count, so it is approximate. P/E is the last close divided by diluted earnings per share over the last four quarters, or the latest fiscal year where the quarters aren't available; there is none when the company made a loss.
What Teva Pharmaceuticals does
Teva makes and sells medicines in two groups: generics, which are lower-cost copies of drugs whose patents have expired, along with biosimilars and over-the-counter products, and its own branded medicines. It is based in Israel, has about 34,000 employees across 57 markets, and has a large presence in the United States and Europe. Its generics are sold mainly to retail drug chains, mail-order distributors and wholesalers.
It reports three segments, each selling its full range in its region: United States, Europe, and International Markets, which covers more than 35 other countries, including Canada, Israel, Russia and parts of Latin America. Its branded medicines focus on the central nervous system, meaning the brain and nerves. They include Austedo for movement disorders, Ajovy for migraine prevention, Uzedy for schizophrenia and Copaxone for multiple sclerosis. It also has branded respiratory and cancer drugs and biosimilars. Its Anda unit distributes medicines to pharmacies, hospitals and doctors' offices in the U.S. Other activities include selling the active ingredients used in drugs and making drugs for others.
Teva calls its current plan "Pivot to Growth." It says the plan aims to grow its branded medicines, use capital where it expects the highest value, and cut costs. On March 31, 2025, it sold its Teva-Takeda business venture in Japan.
Its biggest risks, as it describes them
- Generic medicines are a large part of its business, with pricing pressure, strong competition and a concentrated customer base.
- Delays in launching new generic products and difficulty taking advantage of biosimilar opportunities.
- Generic or biosimilar rivals that could cut sales of its own branded medicines.
- Its need to develop and sell additional products and to protect its patents and other intellectual property.
- Significant debt with large interest and principal payments and restrictive covenants.

Revenue and margins
Net income and earnings per share

Valuation
Two ways to value Teva Pharmaceuticals yourself, both starting from its filings: a discounted cash flow model and the price-to-earnings method.
Discounted cash flow (DCF)
A discounted cash flow (DCF) model values a business as the cash it may generate in future, discounted back to today. The starting figures come from Teva Pharmaceuticals' 10-K (or, for net cash and shares, its latest 10-Q) and the assumptions are yours: start from one of three example scenarios, then change any figure to see what it implies for a share, and how that compares with the last share price.
Value per share on three example scenarios, from Teva Pharmaceuticals' fiscal 2025 free cash flow of $1.1B, net cash of −$13.3B at December 31, 2025 and 1,163 million diluted shares, from its filings. The scenarios are fitted to Teva Pharmaceuticals: the base scenario's growth in years 1 to 5 is its revenue growth over the last 3 years, 5.0% a year; the cautious and optimistic ones are lower and higher, and growth in years 6 to 10 is halfway to the long-run rate. The base scenario's discount rate is 8%: 7% for a stable business (Pharmaceuticals), plus 1 point for unsteady results (a loss in fiscal 2024); the cautious and optimistic ones use a point more and a point less. Select one to load it into the calculator. These are the model's arithmetic on those assumptions, not a forecast or a price target.

How the value changes with two assumptions
Price-to-earnings (P/E) method
Another common way to value a company is to multiply its earnings per share by a price-to-earnings (P/E) multiple: the number of years of today's earnings an investor pays for a share. A higher multiple usually means investors expect earnings to grow. Choose a multiple, for example from similar companies, to see the value it gives.
Value per share on three example scenarios, from Teva Pharmaceuticals' earnings per share of $0.60 (over the last four quarters). Each grows earnings for a year at the cash flow scenarios' rates and applies a multiple to next year's earnings: 47.2×, the average of the Health Care median and Teva Pharmaceuticals' own P/E today for the base scenario, 20% less and more for the cautious and optimistic ones. The price is brought back a year at 9%, 8% and 7%. Select one to load it into the calculator. These are the model's arithmetic on those assumptions, not a forecast or a price target.
