Zoetis Inc. (ZTS) has reported Q4 FY21 revenue of $2 billion, an increase of 9% Y/Y, beating the consensus of $1.93 billion.

  • Adjusted EPS was $1.00, compared to $0.91 last year and beating the consensus of $0.96.
  • Revenue in the U.S. segment was $1.04 billion, +9%. Sales of companion animal products increased 20%, driven by growth across the Company's parasiticides portfolio. 
  • Sales of livestock products declined 13% due to generic competition for Draxxin and continued weakness in beef & dairy consumer markets. 
  • Poultry portfolio declined due to the expanded use of lower-cost alternatives and generic competition for Zoamix, the Company's option to antibiotics in medicated feed additives. 
  • Sales of swine products declined due to pricing pressure on anti-infectives and vaccines.
  • Revenue in the International segment increased 8% to $902 million.
  • Guidance: Zoetis expects FY22 sales of $8.325 billion - $8.475 billion, compared to the consensus of $8.41 billion.
  • It expects adjusted EPS of $5.09 - $5.19, lower than the consensus of $5.21.
  • Price Action: ZTS shares are up 2.22% at $200.80 during the premarket session on the last check Tuesday.
