Valuation Method and Risk Statement

Our price target is based on a one-year forward P/E valuation, supported by DCF. Risks to our

PFE valuation on the upside are: (1) Outperformance of Comirnaty, (2) Better than expected

commercial success of Paxlovid, (3) Pipeline success (mRNA flu vaccine, gene therapy, oral

GLP-1), (4) Strong commercial execution globally, (5) Faster than expected operating margin

expansion driven by strong revenue and cost discipline. Downside risks include: (1) Pipeline

failure (gene therapy, mRNA flu vaccine, oral GLP-1), (2) Slowdown in approved products

(Comirnaty, Ibrance, Xeljanz, Xtandi, Eliquis), (3) Pricing pressure on the portfolio, (4) Margin

deterioration due to slowdown/failure of high margin products. Industry-specific risks

include: (1) Uncertainty around potential reforms around changes in rebate structure, (2)

Drug pricing regulations in key markets that increase pricing pressure, (3) Increased

consolidation among managed care organizations, PBMs increasing their negotiating power.
