Actionable Insight ▼ Bearish

The narrowing of Mylan's antitrust claims reduces the expected value of the litigation for VTRS. The case continues but with weaker prospects; monitor for summary judgment motions or settlement developments. TEVA benefits from the dismissal of several theories.

Executive Summary

The district court partially granted Teva's motion to dismiss Mylan's antitrust complaint, dismissing with prejudice allegations regarding sham citizen petitions, ANDA lawsuits, market shift, copay assistance, and foreign conduct, but allowing claims based on the DAW campaign, exclusionary PBM agreements, and the 2020 reclassification petition to proceed. The ruling significantly narrows Viatris's (Mylan's) antitrust case against Teva, reducing the potential scope of damages.
