2019 outlook: Innovation outweighing erosion
Improving earnings trajectory, downgrades stabilised
EU pharma performance has been hampered in recent years by US pricing concerns and consensus EPS downgrades as an expected acceleration in EPS growth was delayed. However, downgrade momentum seems to have stabilised and '19 o ers mid-to-high single digit EPS growth at a time of wider macro uncertainty. Our strategists are tactically more cautious as they see a receding of global growth fears in the short term and see risks from rising US bond yields and a weakening dollar in the medium term. However, fundamentals look solid in '19 and valuations are underpinned by growth prospects.
Innovation outweighing expiries and pricing: improving growth in '19
We are experiencing an innovation boom with '18 a record year for new drug approvals. We see the rapid pace of innovation as carrying both opportunities (new drugs) and challenges (rapid obsolescence) for large cap Pharma. This may trigger further expensive M&A in the long-term. However, for now it is resulting in solid mid-term growth (6% EPS growth in '19E and 7% EPS CAGR '18-23E) driven by new drug roll-outs with fewer o sets from patent expiries. We see US pricing headwinds as manageable and expect more bark than bite from the currently split US congress in '19.
Less hidden value but 16x PER reasonable: Top large cap picks = AZN & Novo Given a broader market de-rating, EU Pharma is trading at the upper end of its
relative PE range. However, multiples do not look stretched and are supported by our expectations for improving growth. However, our DCFs indicate modest upside in aggregate (~10%), suggesting stock picking and a preference for strong growth is required. Our top picks reflect this with AZN retained as a top pick as we expect margin leverage to materialise strongly in '19. Novo Nordisk enters our top picks list as we see the shares as undervaluing our expectation for a return to long-term growth driven by a shift to its higher-margin GLP-1 franchise.
More Bullish on mid-caps; Upgrading UCB, Sobi, MorphoSys & Genmab to Buy We also become constructive on mid-caps, and upgrade four stocks to Buy
ratings: UCB given our increased confidence that its pipeline can o set expected medium term pressures and return the company to growth; Sobi as we believe the transformational nature of recent acquisitions is yet to be fully reflected; Genmab as we believe the current price is underpinned by expected Darzalex cash flows and we see upside as the company delivers on its growing clinical

Improving earnings trajectory, downgrades stabilised |
Fundamentals look solid but macro an uncertainty
■Bottom-up: moderately positive on fundamentals. EU pharma performance has been hampered in recent years by US pricing concerns and consensus EPS downgrades as an expected acceleration in EPS growth has been slow to materialise. However, downgrade momentum seems to have stabilised and 2019 o ers mid-to- high single digit EPS growth at a time of wider macro uncertainty. Industrywide, we are seeing an innovation boom which carries both opportunities (new drugs) and challenges (rapid obsolescence) for large cap Pharma. This may trigger further expensive M&A in the longterm. However, for now it is resulting in solid short term growth (6% EPS growth in 2019E and 7% EPS CAGR 2018-23E) driven by new drug rollouts with fewer o sets from patent expiries.
■Less hidden value but valuations underpinned. Given a broader market de-rating EU Pharma is trading at the upper end of its relative PE range over the last ten years. However, multiples do not look stretched and we believe are supported by our EPS growth expectations. However, with DCFs suggesting only ~10% upside in aggregate we see less hidden value and fewer obvious 'table pounding' Buy ideas. However, we are more positive on mid-caps where valuations are more attractive and pipelines advancing.
■Our strategists are underweight Pharma suggesting near-term downside risk. They expect a rebound in PMI momentum together with rising US inflation to drive up US bond yields. Combined with their expectations for a weaker US$ this points to near-term downside risk. On a 12 month view they believe European EPS growth will weaken due to headwinds from Euro strength and a softening in PMIs. This would be more constructive for defensives. However, Euro strength and upward pressure on US bond yields represents the most significant risk to our more positive fundamental view.

pipeline uncertainty. Now, we see opportunity and highlight UCB as a top pick (but also upgrade SOBI, Genmab and MorphoSys). |
AstraZeneca (Buy): Turned and now the fastest growing LC pharma
■The now de-risked new drug portfolio should drive high single-digit sales growth, which when paired with a pre-loaded marketing costs, means we should witness a material improvement in margin and earnings in 2019 and an EPS CAGR of 17% between 2018 and 2022E. Delivery on earnings leverage is likely to become the equity story. Admittedly, there are fewer overtly controversial catalysts for the share and value is less hidden. However, we still expect pipeline newsflow in 2019 (roxadustat in anaemia, and new indications for Imfinzi, Lynparza, Calquence) to continue to help drive the shares.
Novo Nordisk (Buy): Anticipating the turn
■Novo underperformed in 2018 reflecting perhaps too open, and sometimes confusing, communication, emerging competitors and only low-to-mid single-digit near-term earnings growth. 2019E still o ers only mid single-digit growth, but as Ozempic continues to take share and as we pass oral semaglutide's filing and close on approval, we expect investors to increasingly warm to the prospect of a return to more meaningful, potential double digit, earnings growth. At 16x 2020E PE, Novo trades at a 15% premium to peers, but only a 4% premium if we normalise sector earnings for the more egregious "core accounting" items, that only Novo does not engage in.
UCB (Upgrade to Buy): Increased confidence in pipeline
■We are upgrading our recommendation on UCB to Buy given our increased confidence that its pipeline can ultimately o set expected medium term pressures and return the company to growth. This confidence reflects our optimism over the blockbuster potential of FcRn inhibitor rozanolixizumab. This should become clearer to investors through 2019. We believe the drug's potential can return the company to growth post its trough in 2022/23 as patents on Vimpat expire, with ~double digit EPS growth possible in best cases. We believe the shares 16x PER reflects only modest value for the pipeline and undervalues the company's ability to leverage its balance sheet to drive growth.

Pharma has outperformed markets despite rising |
|
bond yields |
MSCI EU Pharma up +4% in 2018 vs. MSCI Europe -9%
■EU Pharma absolute performance has been uninspiring in 2018 with modest downgrades to consensus EPS forecasts providing a continuing headwind to share prices.
■Despite this, the sector's defensive characteristics have seen it outperform broader markets impacted by fears over slowing global growth. This has led to an unusual situation of Pharma outperforming even with rising bond yields, usually a challenge for a defensive high yielding sector.
■The sector (ex-Bayer) now trades at a 12 month fwd PE of ~16x, broadly in-line with the end of 2017 but having re-rated from ~14.5x at end 2016 when fears over US pricing dominated investor discussions on the sector's prospects.
■EU Pharma has significantly underperformed US Pharma in 2018. We believe this reflects di ering earnings momentum over the period, with US Pharma buoyed by EPS upgrades (helped by US tax reform) vs overall downgrades within EU Pharma.

Earnings momentum key to performance |
||||
|
|
|
|
||
Positive EPS momentum but still unspectacular |
|
|
|
||
AG/London |
|
to be driven by slowly improving confidence that our forecasts for a growth improvement are achievable (DBe '18-23 CAGR sales/EPS of 5% & 7%). |
|||
|
■ |
Earnings momentum remains key to large cap pharma performance. We expect an improvement in 2019 median EPS growth, following a modest |
|||
|
|
2018, as past biosimilar/generic pressures ease and new portfolios gain traction (Novartis, Sanofi, AstraZeneca). We expect the sector's performance |
|||
|
■ |
US pricing more benign than feared but there may be winners and losers. With the Republicans and Democrats holding majorities in the Senate and |
|||
|
|
House respectively, we believe debates over US drug pricing are likely to be more bark than bite through 2019. However, e orts to remove rebates |
|||
|
|
from the equation and incentives for uptake of biosimilars may be successful. Although eliminating rebates would ultimately be broadly neutral for |
|||
|
|
the sector, we see potential for "winners and losers" in this scenario (see later in this report here ). |
|||
|
■ |
Innovation to outweigh expiry, for now: Near-term ebbing of generic outflows (Roche aside) is set to be outweighed by new product growth in 2019. |
|||
|
|
This should allow the sector to perform better than previous years. Longer-term, innovation is a double edged sword for incumbent Pharma (see |
|||
|
|
later in this report here ). |

in-line with the 10 year average of PE vs growth relative to the market. |

■ |
At 16x forward PE (excluding Bayer) valuations appear reasonable vs history. However, given a broader market de-rating this puts EU Pharma at |
|||
|
|
the upper end of its relative PE range over the last ten years. Despite this our expectations for solid growth means this still puts the sector broadly |
|||
|
■ |
Large Pharma stocks are trading at a ~10% discount to our DCF valuations, suggesting more moderate upside than in the recent past. This is |
|||
|
|
below the >25% discount at end 2016 and the 15% discount at the end of 2017. |
|||
|
■ |
Price targets imply modest re-rating potential; upside based on improving growth prospects. Our price targets imply a target PE of ~16x forward |

PE and are broadly consistent with our DCF valuations implying a median ~10% share price return. Our target PE is a modest premium to the sector |
|||
|

long run average of 15x given improved R&D productivity and growth prospects versus the historic average. However, this would still leave Pharma |

trading on a significant discount to current Consumer Staples stocks (HPC) which trade at 18x. |
