Description: MEDP Medpace Holdings November 03, 2025
Medpace Holdings, Inc. (NASDAQ: MEDP) is a contract research organization that delivers end-to-end clinical development services-including trial design, central lab coordination, regulatory affairs, monitoring, data management, pharmacovigilance, and post-marketing support-to pharmaceutical, biotech, and medical-device clients across North America, Europe, and Asia. Its portfolio spans Phase I through Phase IV studies and encompasses ancillary capabilities such as bio-analytical labs, human pharmacology, imaging, and ECG read-outs.
Key recent metrics: FY 2023 revenue reached $1.06 billion, up ~7 % YoY, driven by higher enrollment volumes in oncology and rare-disease trials; the CRO industry is projected to grow at a CAGR of ~6 % through 2028, reflecting sustained biotech financing and accelerated drug pipelines; and Medpace’s operating margin improved to 12.5 % as it leveraged a “full-service” model to capture higher-value regulatory and data-analytics fees. A material driver of future performance is the U.S. FDA’s emphasis on real-world evidence, which could expand demand for Medpace’s post-marketing and pharmacovigilance services.
