Description: ELAN Elanco Animal Health November 03, 2025

Elanco Animal Health (NYSE: ELAN) develops, manufactures and markets a broad portfolio of veterinary products for companion animals and livestock. Its pet-care line includes parasiticides, vaccines and therapeutics sold under brands such as Seresto, Advantix, Credelio, Galliprant and Atopica, while its farm-animal segment offers medicated feed additives, injectable antibiotics, vaccines and insecticides for cattle, swine and poultry (e.g., Rumensin, Baytril, Maxiban, AviPro). Distribution is a mix of third-party wholesalers, independent retailers and direct sales to veterinarians and producers.

Key metrics that shape Elanco’s outlook include FY 2023 revenue of roughly $3.2 billion, with the pet-health segment contributing about 55 % and delivering a 12 % YoY growth rate driven by rising pet ownership and premiumization trends in the United States and Europe. The livestock business is sensitive to global protein demand; a 5 % annual increase in meat consumption in emerging markets is a primary growth driver, while feed-cost inflation and regulatory scrutiny on antibiotic use pose margin pressures. Elanco’s R&D pipeline, highlighted by next-generation parasiticides and a pipeline of novel biologics for dairy cattle, is expected to sustain product-launch momentum over the next 12-24 months.
