Description: ZTS Zoetis December 03, 2025
Zoetis Inc. (NYSE: ZTS) develops, manufactures, and markets a broad portfolio of animal-health products-including medicines, vaccines, diagnostics, biodevices, genetic tests, and precision-health solutions-for livestock (cattle, swine, poultry, fish, sheep) and companion animals (dogs, cats, horses). Its offerings span parasiticides, anti-infectives, dermatology, pain-management, and point-of-care diagnostics, and it sells primarily to veterinarians, livestock producers, and pet owners. The company also partners with Blacksmith Medicines to explore novel animal-health antibiotics.
Key recent data points: • FY 2023 revenue reached $7.6 billion, with a 9 % YoY increase driven by strong growth in companion-animal vaccines and livestock pharmaceuticals. • The global animal-health market is projected to expand at a CAGR of ~5 % through 2028, underpinned by rising protein demand and higher pet-care spending. • Zoetis’s 2024 guidance anticipates a 6-7 % earnings-per-share growth, supported by its expanding precision-health platform and cost-efficiency initiatives in manufacturing.
