Drug Manufacturers - General Stocks

Drug Manufacturers - General: Johnson & Johnson owns the largest revenue base; Eli Lilly and Company has the fastest current growth.

01 · the industry itself · before any single company

How has Drug Manufacturers - General moved against S&P 500?

The line below covers up to 5.2 years and opens on the 5Y view; the buttons cut it shorter. Over the most recent two of them this industry is 32% behind S&P 500. Earnings across its companies grew 36% on average over the last four reported quarters.

Drug Manufacturers - General, equal-weighted, based at 200 S&P 500, same base, same start trailing 12-month earnings per share rising falling

Both lines start at 200 in the same week, so the distance between them is the whole story: the industry line is an equal-weighted index of its 17 companies. The bars underneath are trailing 12-month earnings per share, one bar per reported quarter, each member rebased to 100 at the start and the industry taking the median — so a price line pulling away from flat bars is a re-rating, not earnings. A bar turns red when that figure is lower than the quarter before. Rules are fixed and applied identically everywhere on this site: ahead by 5% or more over three months, or behind by 20% or more over a year while earnings grew 20% or more. Hover any point to read both values and the gap. This is a description of what the numbers did, not advice.

02 · sector relative strength, before individual stocks

The central tension: the companies with the most scale are not necessarily the companies creating the most change.

Start with scale. Then earnings trajectory. Then business quality. Only after those three agree should price leadership carry much weight.

4-Factor Sector Score

An additive sector-relative research score. The four displayed point contributions always equal the total: Growth & earnings (35), Capital efficiency (25), Valuation (20), and Relative strength (20). Missing or stale evidence is absorbed inside the affected factor, never applied as a hidden adjustment.

Growth & earnings · 35%Capital efficiency · 25%Valuation · 20%Relative strength · 20%

Amgen Inc. has the strongest current balance of earnings trajectory, business quality, valuation and price confirmation, with 81.1% evidence confidence.

Organon & Co. looks inexpensive relative to peers or its own history, but its earnings trajectory has not yet earned the valuation signal.

Johnson & Johnson has stronger price confirmation than earnings confirmation; that is a research prompt, not permission to chase.

How this score is built, and what the marks mean

Missing observations are not scored as bad. Their missing weight lowers confidence and pulls the final score toward neutral. PEG is not shown when the ratio cannot mean anything: the company must be making a profit, its price-to-earnings must be positive, and its three-year earnings growth must fall between 5% and 60%. Dividing a price multiple by a loss, or by growth measured off a tiny base, produces a number that looks precise and tells you nothing. Under relative strength, one mark per week shows the last 12 weeks: a mark is filled where the company led S&P 500 by 5% or more over the 13 weeks ending that week, which is the same test used everywhere on this site. Price stage places the company on the same six-step curve the sector itself is placed on — basing, turning, breaking out, leader, fading, asleep — read from how many weeks running it has led S&P 500 and whether that lead is widening or shrinking. It describes where the PRICE stands, not the earnings trajectory and not a recommendation, and it is left blank for a company whose weekly history is too short or too stale to read.

Market action

Eli Lilly and Company has the strongest one-year price move in Drug Manufacturers - General at +78.3%. Organon & Co. leads on Mansfield relative strength against the S&P 500 at +25.5%. 7 of 16 covered companies are above zero on that measure. Every line covers 314 weekly closes through 2026-08-04.

Price and relative strength

Every company, the sector's own index and S&P 500 all start level on the left edge of the window, so only the distance between the lines counts — the highest line has risen the most since then, and the chart at the top of this page is drawn the same way. It opens on one year; the buttons beside it stretch that to three or five.

Investor read: Johnson & Johnson is the scale benchmark; Eli Lilly and Company is the acceleration watch. Promote the challenger only if growth persists and converts into margin and returns.

This conclusion weakens if: Johnson & Johnson's growth falls below Eli Lilly and Company's for two consecutive comparable reports while operating margin also compresses.

Revenue is compared on a common reported-currency basis. Growth is year-on-year, so seasonality does not masquerade as progress.

Investor read: Eli Lilly and Company sets the level benchmark; use the change leader as an inflection watch only after another comparable report confirms it.

This conclusion weakens if: The next two comparable reports reverse the current margin change signal.

Operating margin compares operating profit with revenue. Improvement is measured in percentage points, not percentage growth.

Investor read: Eli Lilly and Company sets the level benchmark; use the change leader as an inflection watch only after another comparable report confirms it.

This conclusion weakens if: The next two comparable reports reverse the current profit growth signal.

Net profit is the residual after operating costs, interest and tax. Growth off a loss or near-zero base is excluded from the fastest-grower rank.

Return On Capital Employed

AbbVie Inc. has the highest ROCE among the 16 Drug Manufacturers - General companies compared here, at 13.2%. Eli Lilly and Company is next at 12.8%. The same company also holds the highest ROCE change, at +8.2 percentage points. 16 of 16 companies report a comparable reading, the latest through Jun 2026.

What the numbers say: AbbVie Inc. leads ROCE at 13.2%, 0.4 percentage points above Eli Lilly and Company. AbbVie Inc. has the strongest latest improvement at +8.2 percentage points. Read the leader beside the density of its reported history: a sparse high return is a candidate; a repeated high return is evidence of durability.

Coverage16/16 companies · 309 observations

Investor read: AbbVie Inc. sets the level benchmark; use the change leader as an inflection watch only after another comparable report confirms it.

This conclusion weakens if: The next two comparable reports reverse the current roce change signal.

ROCE asks how much operating return the business earns on the capital employed. Direction matters, but a single exceptional year should not be mistaken for durability.

Valuation Against Growth & Quality

Organon & Co. has the lowest PEG among the 16 Drug Manufacturers - General companies compared here, at 0.17×. Gilead Sciences, Inc. is next at 0.35×. The same company also holds the lowest P/E, at 6.44×. 7 of 16 companies report a comparable reading, the latest through Mar 2026.

What the numbers say: Organon & Co. has the lowest comparable PEG at 0.17×, 51.4% below Gilead Sciences, Inc.. Only 7 of 16 companies have earnings and growth steady enough for the ratio to mean anything, so no broad “cheapest stock” conclusion is defensible unless the current multiple, own-history position and growth durability agree.

Persistence0/8 recent comparable periods

Coverage7/16 companies · 44 observations

Investor read: Treat valuation as permission to investigate, never as a standalone reason to buy.

This conclusion weakens if: The next two comparable reports reverse the current p/e signal.

PEG is shown only when earnings are positive and three-year EPS growth is between 5% and 60%. It is recomputed consistently as the trailing P/E divided by that growth rate — reported earnings, never an expected-earnings multiple. On Indian companies it is shown only where the two data feeds agreed. Where any of that fails the ratio is left out rather than printed: a P/E divided by a loss, or by growth measured off a tiny base, is a number that looks precise and means nothing.

10 · before the conclusion, check the blind spots

What can make this comparison misleading?

This Drug Manufacturers - General comparison names 4 specific ways its own evidence can mislead, all listed below. All 16 companies here report on comparable dates, so no rank carries a stale marker. A high growth rate can still be a low-base artefact.

Keep these limits visible

A high growth rate can be a low-base artefact. The page keeps level and change separate for that reason.
A high ROCE can be temporary or flattered by a small capital base. Read it beside margin, cash conversion and reinvestment.
The 4-Factor Sector Score ranks research priority, not portfolio action. Management quality, catalysts and risks need equally fresh evidence before capital is deployed.
An “all companies” line chart preserves completeness, but rank changes should be checked against reporting dates before drawing a conclusion.

11 · evidence and freshness

How was this comparison built?

This comparison is built from the reported filings of 16 Drug Manufacturers - General companies, normalized to a common $ scale and a shared quarter axis of up to 20 quarters each. Fundamentals run through Jun 2026 and market data through 2026-08-04. A second data feed fills gaps only after identity and scale reconciliation, and missing observations are never interpolated.

Drug Manufacturers - General company comparison FAQs

These 22 answers restate the Drug Manufacturers - General comparison above in question form. Every one is computed from the same 16 companies and the same reported filings as the rankings and charts, current through Jun 2026. Price and relative-strength answers run through 2026-08-04. Nothing here is estimated, and none of it is a recommendation.

Is the Drug Manufacturers - General sector outperforming S&P 500?

Which Drug Manufacturers - General company is largest by revenue?

Johnson & Johnson leads with revenue of $97,929 million, based on 9 of 16 comparable companies through Jun 2026.

Which Drug Manufacturers - General company is growing fastest?

Eli Lilly and Company has the fastest current revenue growth at 47.4%, across 9 of 16 comparable companies.

Which Drug Manufacturers - General company has the strongest 4-Factor Sector Score?

Amgen Inc. ranks first at 70.3/100 with 81.1% evidence confidence. The score prioritizes research; it is not a buy recommendation.

Which Drug Manufacturers - General company has the lowest comparable PEG?

Organon & Co. has the lowest comparable PEG at 0.17, among 7 of 16 companies whose earnings and growth are steady enough for the ratio to mean anything.

How much history does this Drug Manufacturers - General comparison include?

The page compares up to 20 reported quarters per company for fundamentals, returns and valuation, ending Jun 2026. Missing observations remain blank rather than being estimated.

How is the 4-Factor Sector Score calculated?

The four visible contributions add directly: growth and earnings up to 35 points, capital efficiency up to 25, valuation up to 20, and relative strength up to 20. Missing or stale evidence moves only the affected contribution toward neutral.

Which Drug Manufacturers - General company is the biggest?

Johnson & Johnson is the largest, with trailing-twelve-month revenue of $97,929 million, ahead of Eli Lilly and Company at $72,250 million. That covers 9 of 16 companies with comparable reporting through Jun 2026.

Which Drug Manufacturers - General company has the best profit margins?

Eli Lilly and Company has the highest operating margin at 45%, from 16 of 16 comparable companies. Amgen Inc. shows the biggest recent improvement, at +16.4 percentage points. A high margin matters most when it is holding or rising, not when it is peaking.

Which Drug Manufacturers - General company makes the most profit?

Eli Lilly and Company earns the most, at $25,278 million of trailing-twelve-month net profit, from 9 of 16 comparable companies. Eli Lilly and Company has the fastest profit growth at 100%, though growth off a small or recovering profit base overstates how much has actually changed.

Which Drug Manufacturers - General company earns the highest return on capital?

AbbVie Inc. leads on return on capital employed at 13.2%, across 16 of 16 companies. Read it beside the length of its reported history: a high return that repeats for years is evidence of a durable business, while a single high reading can be a small capital base or one good year.

Which Drug Manufacturers - General stock is the cheapest?
