Elanco Announces USDA Approval of TruCan™ Ultra Lyme-L4, the First and Only 1/2 mL Combination Vaccine for Lyme and Leptospirosis for DogsJune 15, 2026 8:47 AM
PR Newswire (US) TruCan Ultra Lyme-L4 is the first and only 1/2 mL combination vaccine protecting against both Lyme disease and leptospirosis, all in a low-volume doseBy combining two injections into one, the vaccine minimizes "pokes" supporting comfortable wellness visits for petsFeatures proprietary PureFil™ Technology, designed to reduce vaccination reactions associated with unwanted proteini,ii,iiiProduct expected to begin shipping in the next 30 daysINDIANAPOLIS, June 15, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Elanco Animal Health Incorporated (NYSE: ELAN) today announced the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) approval of TruCan Ultra Lyme-L4, expanding its extensive TruCan Ultra Portfolio of comfortable and convenient combination vaccines. This milestone marks the introduction of the first and only 1/2 mL combination vaccine designed to protect dogs against both Lyme disease and leptospirosis, two increasingly prevalent threats to canine health. As an expansion of the TruCan Ultra line, this new 1/2 mL formulation provides the same broad protection as the category-exclusive 1 mL version but in half the volume. This combination formulation allows veterinarians to provide essential protection without the need for multiple injections.TruCan Ultra Lyme-L4 is engineered with Elanco's proprietary PureFilTM Technology, designed to reduce vaccination reactions associated with unwanted protein, allowing clinicians to support patient comfort without compromising on protection.i,ii,iii"USDA approval of TruCan Ultra Lyme-L4 is a testament to our commitment to vaccine innovation," said Bobby Modi, Executive Vice President, U.S. Pet Health and Global Digital Transformation. "By offering a low-volume, highly-purified combination vaccine, we are providing veterinarians with a powerful tool to help close critical protection gaps while encouraging a comfortable, low-stress experience."This approval comes at a critical time for canine wellness as all dogs are at risk for leptospirosis regardless of breed, size, lifestyle, or geographic location.iv Leptospirosis is now recognized as a core vaccine per American Animal Hospital Association (AAHA) guidelines,v meaning all dogs should be vaccinated. Additionally, the risk of Lyme disease is spreading to new geographies; however, recent data show a significant "protection gap," with over 40% of at-risk dogs in endemic states lacking a current Lyme vaccine, despite having received their core vaccines.vi"Leptospirosis and Lyme disease remain important infectious threats for dogs in the U.S.," says Dr. Jessica Pritchard, Clinical Assistant Professor in Small Animal Internal Medicine at the University of Wisconsin-Madison School of Veterinary Medicine, "Leptospirosis vaccination is now considered core for dogs because the exposure risk exists nationwide, including in suburban and urban environments. Vaccination, along with risk-based lifestyle discussions between veterinarians and pet owners, plays an important role in protecting dogs from these preventable diseases."TruCan Ultra Lyme vaccines have demonstrated 92.2% efficacy against natural infection in highly endemic areasvii and 100% efficacy in laboratory studies.viii By reducing the number of injections required—one "poke" versus two—the combination vaccine is designed to improve the overall wellness visit for pets, owners and veterinary staff.This approval follows recent USDA approvals of TruCan Ultra B (Oral), the first 1/2 mL oral Bordetella vaccine, and TruCan Ultra CIV H3N2/H3N8, the only 1/2 mL bivalent canine influenza vaccine. Together, these advancements add to a comprehensive suite of low-volume, highly purified vaccines that allow veterinary teams to tailor immunization protocols to the specific needs of every dog.TruCan Ultra Lyme-L4 is expected to begin shipping in the next 30 days.

New Research Reveals Pet Spending as a "Protected Budget Item" for Owners, Fueling Industry ResilienceJune 3, 2026 7:26 AM
PR Newswire (US) INDIANAPOLIS, June 3, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Elanco Animal Health Incorporated (NYSE: ELAN), a global leader in animal health, today released new consumer research showing pet owners continue to prioritize spending on their pets, underscoring the robust and resilient nature of the industry. According to Elanco's latest survey of 1,409 U.S. pet owners conducted May 29-31, even with rising costs across spending categories including higher gas prices, pet health and wellness remain an absolute priority for pet owners as a protected budget item.Stable Expectations for Pet Owner Spend: 91% of pet owners have at least maintained their spending on pet health and wellness products in recent years, with 38% of pet owners increasing spend. This remains stable with February research prior to rising fuel prices.Increasing Pet Care Spend Despite Rising Costs of Living: 31% of pet owners say they've increased spending on their pets' health and wellness in the past three months, despite increasing economic challenges. Further, 90% of pet owners expect their spending to stay the same or increase (37%) in the year ahead.  Pet Health & Wellness as a Top Priority and Core Expenditure: 95% of pet owners see pet health and wellness care as a priority that they will not reduce due to economic pressure. Even when consumers face personal financial challenges, they are willing to cut spending on themselves – dining out, travel – before their pets. In fact, pet health and wellness was the last item in the surveyed categories that consumers would cut if required to reduce expenses. Elanco's latest research reveals a powerful and enduring shift in consumer behavior shaped by a new kind of pet owner – one who is more engaged, more informed and more empowered than ever before. Pets are no longer just companions – they're family. With fewer kids and more pets, pet owners are demonstrating an increased expectation of care and desire for longer, healthier lives for their pets. This profound commitment translates directly into a strong and durable willingness to invest in their wellbeing, with 88% of pet parents saying their pet's happiness and wellbeing is as important as their own."Our research consistently shows that pet care is not a discretionary expense; it's a deeply emotional and highly prioritized investment for pet parents," said Bobby Modi, Executive Vice President, U.S. Pet Health and Digital Transformation. "Pet owners are demonstrating an unwavering commitment to their animals' health, driving demand for innovative, high-quality solutions. This fundamental consumer trend underpins the resilience and growth potential of the companion animal industry, and Elanco is strategically positioned to capitalize on it."These findings reinforce the broader industry data showing the animal health industry is one of the most compelling and resilient sectors, with a 20-year track record of continual growth, averaging about 5% annually. Elanco estimates the industry expanded by 7% in 2025. Deep consumer commitment to pets and a surging demand for animal protein are driving sustained growth. With a long runway ahead, the animal health industry is projected to grow from $42 billion in 2025 to $60 billion in the next decade.Key pet health trends further amplify this opportunity:Omnichannel Access & Convenience: Modern pet owners seek convenience and diverse access points for care. While vet visit volumes may fluctuate, spending on vet services continues to grow, indicating a strong willingness to spend on innovation. Further, approximately 40% of pet care sales are subscription-based. Additionally, many consumers spend outside the vet clinic. The 2024 APPA National Pet Owners Survey indicated approximately one-third of all dog and cat owners didn't take their pet to a veterinarian in the previous year. Elanco is well-positioned with an omnichannel approach to meet pet owners where, when, and how they choose to engage.Comprehensive Portfolios & Innovation: Pet owners are willing to spend on innovation, which creates the value that drives industry pricing. Elanco is well-positioned with its market-leading growth in U.S. Pet Health through a basket of innovation, #1 standing in OTC1 and status as just one of two industry providers with a complete portfolio.Expanding Diagnostic Opportunities: Currently, only one in five pet visits includes diagnostics, meaning the true spectrum of disease is often unknown. As diagnostics expand what can be detected, and AI accelerates what can be learned, the opportunity to improve pet health and drive value is substantial.Elanco remains committed to providing pet owners with a wide range of innovative solutions at a variety of price points where they want to shop, that deliver on pet owners' desire to help their pets live longer, healthier, more active lives.ABOUT ELANCO

The launch comes at a key time, with a longer and more intense allergy season anticipated across the country this year.i With nearly 2 in 3 itchy dogs experiencing worse itch during allergy seasonii, Befrena expands Elanco's dermatology portfolio by offering a new treatment option that starts controlling allergic itch within 24 hours. By neutralizing IL-31, a key cytokine involved in sending itch signals to the brain, Befrena offers a differentiated 6 to 8 weeks dosing interval, providing veterinarians and pet owners with a new level of convenience and efficacy. Benefits of Befrena:  Offers at least 6 to 8 weeks of itch relief, in contrast to the 4 to 8 weeks of the current market incumbent, lokivetmabStarts controlling itch within 24 hoursGiven as an in-clinic injection administered by, or under the supervision of, a licensed veterinarianElanco received approval of Befrena from the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) in December 2025, making it the company's second dermatology product, alongside Zenrelia™ (ilunocitinib tablets), to be approved and launched in the past two years.Elanco is also now the only pet health company with two USDA approved mAb products – Befrena and Trutect. Trutect is the first and only approved therapeutic solution to treat canine parvovirus."The commercial launch of Befrena into the $1.3 billion U.S. canine dermatology marketiii is another exciting milestone in our innovation journey," said Bobby Modi, Executive Vice President, U.S. Pet Health and Global Digital Transformation. "We are seeing positive results from our Early Experience Program veterinarians who have started using Befrena in their clinics and will continue to increase supply of this new monoclonal antibody, as we scale our bioreactors with the anticipated manufacturing ramp-up."Make Best Friends Better – Meet the First Dogs Treated with Befrena Nearly 9 in 10 dogs in the U.S. are "itchy dogs" according to their pet owners, having experienced symptoms of itch at any point throughout the yearii. Data in Elanco's America's Itchy Dogs Report also found that veterinarians say that itchy dog owners wait too long before bringing in their dog, resulting in raw and infected skin and an irritated dog owner who wants their dog to experience relief quickly.iiAs a part of the Befrena Early Experience Program, select veterinarians and veterinary dermatologists have already started using Befrena in their clinics and seen initial improvements in itchy dogs.Beaux from Austin, TX was the first dog treated with Befrena after experiencing significant hair loss due to his constant itch.According to Dr. Matt Lane at Liberty Animal Hospital at Beaux's 3-week checkup appointment, "Beaux is doing amazing, and his owner is excited to see his hair growing back. He stopped itching within 24 hours of receiving the injection and his owner and I are extremely pleased with the results."Penelope and Zephyr were also treated with Befrena at Gigi's Animal Shelter in Columbus, OH. Both dogs experience seasonal allergies that impact their behavior and quality of life and after discussing with their veterinarian both owners chose Befrena to control their dogs' itch."We want to get these dogs relief and make sure they have the most comfortable experience as possible, and I think Befrena shows some real promise for that," said Dr. Meghan Herron, Senior Director of Behavior, Research, and Education at Gigi's.Zephyr's owner is also a licensed veterinary technician at Gigi's and helped administer Zephyr's injection. You can follow along their journey below.https://elanco.wistia.com/medias/5nbmg3s2hk"I have been involved with two clinical trials and the Early Experience Program which has shown Befrena to be a highly safe and effective product," said Dr. Tom Lewis, veterinary dermatologist and founder of Dermatology for Animals, a group of veterinary dermatology clinics committed to caring for pets with allergies. "This will become a very important treatment option for many allergic dogs and I am excited to use Befrena in my clinic."*"I've used Befrena in a few patients so far and while it's still relatively early, I'm very optimistic and excited about what's going to happen with these cases," said Dr. Jason Pieper, veterinary dermatologist and tenured associate professor of dermatology at Iowa State University College of Veterinary Medicine. "I've had several patients respond very well including one unique case that has failed multiple other treatments for atopic dermatitis. And so far, two weeks after receiving Befrena, this dog's doing quite well, it's wonderful."*Learn more about Befrena and sign up for future news and webinars at www.befrenaforvets.com.*Drs.

(1) Organic CC Growth = Represents revenue growth excluding royalty revenue that was sold to a third party and the impact of foreign exchange rates.(2) Primarily represents revenue from arrangements in which we manufacture products on behalf of a third party and royalty revenue. Royalty revenue sold to a third party, to which we are no longer entitled but is still required to be recognized as revenue under GAAP, totaled $9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026.In the first quarter of 2026, revenue was $1,371 million, an increase of 15% on a reported basis, or 10% on an organic constant currency basis, compared to the first quarter of 2025.Pet Health revenue was $710 million, an increase of 12% on a reported basis, or 7% on an organic constant currency basis. The year over year volume increase of 5% in the first quarter was primarily driven by new products, and the addition of two new retail customers benefitting parasiticides. The 2% increase from price was in line with the company's expectation. The Advantage® Family of products and Seresto® contributed revenue of $163 million and $159 million     , respectively.Farm Animal revenue was $642 million, an increase of 18% on a reported basis, or 13% on an organic constant currency basis. First quarter volumes were up 11%, driven by strong demand across all species, led by poultry and ruminants. Farm animal organic constant currency revenue growth included a 2% increase from price, compared to the first quarter of 2025.Gross profit was $785 million in the first quarter of 2026, and gross margin percentage was 57.3% in the first quarter of 2026 and 2025. On an adjusted basis, gross profit was $776 million and gross margin percentage was 57.0% in the first quarter of 2026, a 40 basis point decrease compared to the first quarter of 2025 as expected. The decrease in gross margin percentage on an adjusted basis was primarily driven by product mix with strong Farm Animal growth, the timing of inflation, and a flow through of higher inventory costs, partially offset by price and sales volume benefits.Total operating expenses were $478 million for the first quarter of 2026, an increase of 10% compared to the first quarter of 2025. Marketing, selling and administrative expenses increased 12% to $381 million, driven by higher compensation expense, foreign currency exchange rate movements and strategic investments in the global launches of new products, partially offset by decreased expenses in certain general and administrative expenses. Research and development expenses increased 3% to $97 million driven primarily by foreign exchange rates.Asset impairment, restructuring and other special charges were $16 million in the first quarter of 2026, compared to $9 million in the first quarter of 2025. Charges recorded in the first quarter of 2026 primarily related to $15 million of non-cash shut-down costs for the animal studies portion of our R&D facilities in Monheim, Germany. Charges recorded in the first quarter of 2025 primarily consisted of upfront payments made in relation to new licensing arrangements.Reported net interest expense was $57 million in the first quarter of 2026, an increase of $17 million compared to the first quarter of 2025. The increase was principally due to imputed interest on our liability for sale of future revenue of $14 million, as well as interest expense related to our corporate headquarters finance lease, partially offset by lower average debt balances. Adjusted net interest expense, which excludes this imputed interest, was $43 million in the first quarter of 2026, an increase of $3 million compared to the first quarter of 2025.The reported effective tax rate was 34.6% in the first quarter of 2026 compared to (12.2)% in the first quarter of 2025. The adjusted effective tax rate was 21.2% in the first quarter of 2026 compared to 9.2% in the first quarter of 2025.Net income for the first quarter of 2026 was $57 million, or $0.11 per diluted share on a reported basis, compared with net income of $67 million, or $0.13 per diluted share, for the same period in 2025. On an adjusted basis, net income for the first quarter of 2026 was $204 million, or $0.40 per diluted share, an 8% increase compared with the same period in 2025.  Adjusted EBITDA was $334 million in the first quarter of 2026, a 21% increase compared to the first quarter of 2025. Adjusted EBITDA margin was 24.5% compared with 23.1% for the first quarter of 2025.Working Capital and Balance SheetCash provided by operations was $13 million in the first quarter of 2026, compared to cash used in operations of $4 million in the first quarter of 2025.As of March 31, 2026, Elanco's net leverage ratio was 3.5x adjusted EBITDA, a decrease of 0.1x compared to December 31, 2025.Financial GuidanceElanco is updating financial guidance for the full year 2026, summarized in the following table.2026 Full Year(dollars in millions, except per share amounts)

Reconciliation of GAAP Reported to Selected Non-GAAP Adjusted Information
(Unaudited)
(Dollars and shares in millions, except per share data)We use non-GAAP financial measures, such as organic constant currency revenue growth, adjusted gross profit, adjusted gross margin percentage, adjusted net income, adjusted EPS, EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA margin and net debt and net debt leverage, that differ from financial measures reported in conformity with GAAP. The company believes these non-GAAP measures provide useful information to investors. Among other things, they may help investors assess and analyze our operational results and trends of our ongoing operations. Management also uses these non-GAAP measures internally to evaluate the performance of the business and in making resource allocation decisions. Investors should consider these non-GAAP measures in addition to, not as a substitute for or superior to, measures of financial performance prepared in accordance with GAAP. Reconciliation of non-GAAP financial measures and reported GAAP financial measures are included in the tables below.Adjusted Gross Profit and Gross Margin PercentageWe define gross profit as total revenue less cost of sales. We define adjusted gross profit as gross profit less royalty revenue sold to a third party, less cost of sales adjustments. We define adjusted gross margin percentage as adjusted gross profit divided by total revenue, less royalty revenue sold to a third party. The following is a reconciliation of GAAP reported gross profit for the for the three months March 31, 2026 and 2025, to adjusted gross profit and adjusted gross margin percentage:

57.4 %Adjusted Net Income and Earnings Per ShareWe define adjusted net income as net income (loss) excluding amortization of intangible assets, purchase accounting adjustments to inventory, acquisition and divestiture-related charges, including integration and separation costs, severance, goodwill and other asset impairments, gains on sales of assets and related costs, facility exit costs, the impacts from sales of future revenues, gains and losses on mark-to-market adjustments on equity securities, tax valuation allowances, certain litigation-related settlements that we consider to be unusual or infrequent and significant, and other specified significant items, such as unusual or non-recurring items that are unrelated to our long-term operations adjusted for income tax expense associated with the excluded financial items. We define adjusted earnings per share as adjusted net income divided by the number of weighted-average diluted shares outstanding for the applicable period. The following is a reconciliation of GAAP reported net income and EPS for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, to adjusted net income and EPS:

$           0.37(a)Adjustments to GAAP reported net income to arrive at adjusted net income for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, included the following:



(1)Adjustments of $16 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026, primarily related to $15 million of non-cash shut-down costs for the animal studies portion of our R&D facilities in Monheim, Germany associated with our 2025 Restructuring Plan. Adjustments of $9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025, included $7 million of upfront payments made in relation to new licensing arrangements.



(2)Adjustments of $14 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026, related to imputed interest expense on our liability for sale of future revenue.



(3)Adjustments of $13 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026, primarily related to currency translation losses reclassified from accumulated other comprehensive loss in conjunction with the substantial liquidation of a dormant legal entity, a litigation settlement, and mark-to-market adjustments on equity investments. Adjustments of $5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025, related to mark-to-market adjustments on equity investments and the impact of hyperinflationary accounting in Turkey.



(4)Adjustments of $25 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026 primarily represented the income tax expense associated with the adjusted items discussed above. Adjustments of $26 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025, primarily represented the income tax expense associated with the adjusted items discussed above. The adjustments for the three months ended March 31, 2025, also reflect a $35 million benefit related to a discrete tax item recognized during the quarter.Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA MarginWe define adjusted EBITDA as net income (loss) adjusted for interest expense (income), which includes debt financing charges and imputed interest on our liability for sale of future revenue, income tax expense (benefit) and depreciation and amortization, further adjusted to exclude purchase accounting adjustments to inventory, acquisition and divestiture-related charges, including integration and separation costs, severance, goodwill and other asset impairments, gains on sales of assets and related costs, facility exit costs, revenue sold to a third party, gains and losses on mark-to-market adjustments on equity securities, certain litigation-related settlements which we consider to be unusual or infrequent and significant, and other specified significant items, such as unusual or non-recurring items that are unrelated to our long-term operations.For the periods presented, we have not made adjustments for all items that may be considered unrelated to our long-term operations. We believe adjusted EBITDA, when used in conjunction with our results presented in accordance with GAAP and its reconciliation to net income (loss), enhances investors' understanding of our performance, valuation and prospects for the future. We also believe adjusted EBITDA is a measure used in the animal health industry by analysts as a valuable performance metric for investors. The following is a reconciliation of GAAP reported net income for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, to EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA margin, which we define as adjusted EBITDA divided by total revenue, less royalty revenue sold to a third party, for the respective periods:

We define net debt as gross debt less cash and cash equivalents and finance lease liabilities on the balance sheet. We define our net leverage ratio as net debt divided by our trailing twelve month adjusted EBITDA. We believe our net debt and net leverage ratio are important measures to monitor our financial flexibility, liquidity and capital structure and may enhance investors' understanding of our ability to meet future financial obligations. In addition, a net leverage ratio is a financial measure that is frequently used by investors and creditors.

The complete, corrected release follows, with additional details at the end:
Elanco's Negasunt™ Powder (Coumaphos, Propoxur, Sulfanilamide Topical Powder) and Tanidil™ (Coumaphos, Propoxur) Receive Emergency Authorization for Use Against New World Screwworm in Livestock
Action Prepares Veterinarians and Livestock Producers with Prevention and Treatment Options Prior to Fly Being Detected in the U.S.Federal agencies grant emergency authorizations for New World screwworm in livestock, reinforcing Elanco's leadership in livestock health innovations  Actions underscore the commitment of the U.S. Food and Drug Administration, U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, and U.S. Department of Agriculture to act swiftly against emerging animal health threats Early detection and immediate treatment of open wounds on livestock is critical to prevention of New World screwworm myiasis in individual animals and rapid spread of the pestAn effective fly and tick control regimen is also essential, helping to avoid small bites on animals that can be an entry point for the screwwormINDIANAPOLIS, April 27, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Elanco Animal Health Incorporated (NYSE: ELAN) announced it has received Emergency Use Authorization (EUA) from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for Negasunt Powder (coumaphos, propoxur, sulfanilamide topical powder) and a Section 18 Emergency Exemption from the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) in cooperation with the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) for Tanidil (coumaphos, propoxur) for the prevention and treatment of New World screwworm infestations in a variety of livestock species.







With confirmed cases of New World screwworm detected as close as 62 miles south of the U.S.-Mexico borderi, these authorizations ensure veterinarians and livestock producers have a ready-now treatment option for various livestock species should the fly enter the U.S.Negasunt Powder and Tanidil will be available only through the U.S. Animal Plant Health and Inspection Service (APHIS) and its National Veterinary Stockpile. They will be distributed in coordination with state animal health officials and federally recognized tribal agencies. In the near future, APHIS will share additional information about the requirements for use, including tracking and reporting requirements and required safety and personal protective equipment.With more than 70 years of on-farm experience, Elanco is standing alongside livestock producers and regulators during this challenging time by providing New World screwworm options for prevention and treatment of New World screwworm infestations, education and science-based resources if the fly enters the U.S."We appreciate our federal agencies' swift review of the scientific data demonstrating that these products may be effective in prevention and treatment against New World screwworm infestations," said Dr. Ellen de Brabander, Executive Vice President of Research & Development at Elanco. "We're committed to working alongside state and federal regulatory authorities to provide our support and scientific expertise. These emergency authorizations provide new, science-based solutions and treatment options to livestock producers, veterinarians, and other animal health industry stakeholders at a time when they need them most."Effective Parasite Protection is ParamountElanco now offers producers and veterinarians several key products that can help prevent and treat New World screwworm infestations in a variety of livestock species. In addition to the EUA for Negasunt Powder and the Section 18 Emergency Exemption for Tanidil, the company also offers Catron IV – one of the few EPA registered products labeled for treatment against screwworm in a variety of livestock species. This screwworm and ear tick spray can help producers kill and control screwworm flies and maggots on beef and dairy cattle, sheep, goats, hogs and horses."The most important thing producers can do is self-education. They should be learning more about New World screwworm from credible sources, staying current with treatment protocol recommendations, and knowing where active cases are located," said Dr. M. Wayne Ayers, Elanco Sr. Technical Consultant and veterinarian. "The second most important part of preventing losses from New World screwworm is for producers to keep their 'eyes on livestock.' Looking over livestock as frequently as possible will allow early detection and treatment of infestation. Early intervention is key to minimizing tissue damage, decreasing mortality, and reducing the risk to the area by preventing the fly's potential offspring from completing their lifecycle."Preventing Wound-Causing Parasites Also EssentialAccording to APHIS, an important way to prevent New World screwworm infestation is to protect livestock from other wound-causing parasites such as biting flies and ticks.ii"Some of the surgical and care procedures we perform for livestock could result in potential sites for the female screwworm to deposit her eggs," said Dr. Ayers. "Wounds as small as fly and tick bites are potential areas to watch for as well. Therefore, treating open wounds, including those from surgical sites, and instituting a good fly and tick prevention program will play an important role in reducing the number of infestations we may see."Elanco offers several EPA registered products to help control flies and ticks on livestock in the forms of pour-on liquids, sprays, dusts and ear tags.Elanco recommends that livestock producers and veterinarians review the latest resources available from the USDA and FDA and consider the additional resources below in advance of the potential entry of New World screwworm into the United States.To learn more about New World screwworm (NWS) using the following resources:USDA NWS Alert and Fact SheetNCBA NWS ResourcesFDA Information for Veterinarians on NWSEmergency Use Authorization of Negasunt Powder (coumaphos, propoxur, and sulfanilamide topical powder) for New World Screwworm (NWS)WARNING: Neurotoxicity. Read full Fact Sheet for complete information. Coumaphos and propoxur can cause neurotoxicity.

Designed for dogs and puppies 12 weeks of age and older, this dog collar kills and repels ?eas and ticks and repels mosquitoes* for a full four months.







"The Advantage Collar for Dogs is a fantastic addition to our over-the-counter pet portfolio, building on the 25-year Advantage brand family and Elanco's leadership in the retail space," said Bobby Modi, Executive Vice President, U.S. Pet Health and Global Digital Transformation at Elanco. "Elanco is proud to offer a variety of products at multiple price points, meeting the consumer where they want to shop whether it be at retail or through the veterinarian."Fleas and ticks are active year-round, even in the cold winter months, meaning it is important for dogs to be on year-round flea and tick control. The Advantage Collar for Dogs provides four months of continuous flea, tick and mosquito* protection by using the collar's time-release formula for four months of coverage, allowing dog owners to apply the collar only three times per year for round-the-clock protection.The collar also kills ticks that may transmit diseases such as Lyme disease, anaplasmosis, and Rocky Mountain spotted fever and kills fleas that may carry tapeworms."As we head into peak parasite season, I encourage pet owners to find the right flea and tick protection for their dogs," said Dr. Casey Locklear, parasiticide lead at Elanco. "The Advantage Collar for Dogs offers a new option for dog parents looking for an affordable, over-the-counter treatment option. Whether your dog enjoys long hikes or playing in the yard, year-round flea and tick control is crucial."The Advantage Collar for Dogs is available at pet specialty, dollar, grocery and mass retailers.

Elanco tops earnings forecasts but shares slip amid margin pressure concernsFebruary 24, 2026 8:42 AM
IH Market News
Elanco Animal Health Incorporated (NYSE:ELAN) reported fourth-quarter results on Tuesday that came in ahead of analyst expectations, though its shares moved lower in premarket trading as investors reacted to softer margins.The animal health company posted adjusted earnings per share of $0.13, exceeding the consensus forecast of $0.11. Despite the earnings beat, the stock declined 1.17% before the opening bell as market attention shifted toward profitability trends.Quarterly revenue totaled $1.14 billion, above analyst estimates of $1.09 billion. Sales increased 12% year-on-year on a reported basis and rose 9% organically in constant currency terms compared with the same period last year. Revenue also climbed from $1.02 billion recorded in the fourth quarter of 2024.Adjusted EBITDA rose 7% to $189 million; however, the adjusted EBITDA margin narrowed to 16.7%, down from 17.4% a year earlier. The margin contraction appeared to dampen investor enthusiasm despite the company outperforming expectations on both revenue and earnings.“Elanco delivered significant progress across our strategic priorities of growth, innovation, and cash in 2025,” said Jeff Simmons, President and CEO. “We achieved a strong fourth quarter with 9% organic constant currency revenue growth, marking our 10th consecutive quarter of underlying growth.”Looking ahead, Elanco guided for fiscal 2026 adjusted EPS of between $1.00 and $1.06, with the midpoint of $1.03 aligning with analyst consensus estimates. The company forecast revenue in the range of $4.95 billion to $5.02 billion, with a midpoint of $4.99 billion slightly ahead of the $4.94 billion consensus projection.Within its segments, Pet Health revenue grew 11% to $489 million, supported by newer products such as Credelio Quattro and Zenrelia. Farm Animal revenue increased 12% to $640 million, driven by strong demand for Experior in U.S. cattle and continued momentum in poultry sales.Elanco also lifted its 2026 innovation revenue target to $1.15 billion from $1.1 billion and finished 2025 with a net leverage ratio of 3.6x adjusted EBITDA.Elanco Animal Health Incorporated stock price

Mr. Hoover is retiring from his role after joining the Board in September of 2018 as the first Chairman of the Board at the time of the company's IPO. Dr. Kochevar joined in March of 2019 as the company completed its separation from Eli Lilly and Company."Dave Hoover's leadership was absolutely foundational to Elanco's success as an independent company," said Lawrence E. Kurzius, Chairman of the Board. "As our founding Chairman, he skillfully guided us through our spin-off and initial years as a public entity, establishing a robust governance framework and a clear strategic direction.

We are grateful for his vision and dedicated service and wish him the best in retirement."Jeff Simmons, Elanco President and CEO, added, "Dave's advisement and strategic insights were instrumental in shaping Elanco into the global leader it is today, well positioned for our new era.

I am extremely grateful for Debbie's expertise and connection to veterinary medicine."Following these changes, the Board will consist of nine directors.ABOUT ELANCO

Barron’s likes post-merger ELAN—but the stock is not a screaming buy (IMO):

https://www.barrons.com/articles/animal-spirits-for-elanco-pet-care-companys-stock-is-well-positioned-for-gains-51599848313 Elanco Animal Health shares are up about 15% since the company closed its nearly $7 billion acquisition of Bayer Animal Health in early August. That rally has been a long time coming for investors in the animal-care company.

Elanco (ticker: ELAN) stock was down about 2% from when it was spun out from Eli Lilly (LLY) two years ago until the Bayer acquisition became official. Now, Elanco has a good opportunity to change the trajectory of its stock performance, in part because it will have more global reach with the Bayer unit in the fold. The acquisition catapults Elanco into the No. 2 spot in animal-health market share, behind Zoetis (ZTS)…

Companion animal, or pet, products, including canine treatments for heartworm and osteoarthritis, are for the most part faster-growing with higher margins than many livestock products. …A big plus from the Bayer deal: It increases Elanco’s exposure to pet products to 48% of sales from 38%.

…One of the less favorable consequences of the Bayer deal is that Elanco now has a lot of debt on its balance sheet. Risinger estimates that the company’s net debt to 2021 earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization is a hefty 5.2 times…

… Elanco fetches about 27 times the $1.02 a share that analysts expect the company to earn next year, a big discount to about 38 times for Zoetis. Elanco probably won’t close that valuation gap soon, considering that Zoetis has better organic sales growth, which excludes acquisitions, and a stronger balance sheet. But it certainly could narrow the gap and give its stock price a nice boost. In other words, ELAN may be a better buy than ZTS, but it’s not exactly cheap.

ELAN prices (upsized) dual offerings to help fund Bayer Animal Health acquisition:

ELAN acquires Bayer’s animal-health business for $7.6B in cash+stock:

https://finance.yahoo.com/news/1-elanco-buy-bayers-animal-101029292.html Elanco Animal Health Incorporated (ELAN) today announced it has entered into an agreement with Bayer AG to acquire its animal health business in a transaction valued at US$7.6 billion. The transaction, which is subject to regulatory approval and other customary closing conditions, creates the second largest animal health leader [behind ZTS]…

The transaction will double Elanco’s Companion Animal business, advancing the company’s intentional portfolio mix transformation and creating a balance between its Food Animal and Companion Animal segments. Elanco expects the combined organization to continue to deliver mid-single digit revenue growth…

...Elanco will finance the transaction through both cash and equity. Bayer AG will receive $5.32 billion in cash…and $2.28 billion or approximately 68 million Elanco Animal Health common shares. This represents a 70 percent to 30 percent cash-to-equity mix.

Stock received by Bayer is subject to a 7.5 percent symmetrical collar centered on Elanco’s volume-weighted average price for the 30 trading days ended August 6, 2019 of $33.60.

The transaction is expected to close in mid-2020, subject to regulatory approvals and other customary closing conditions. At the midpoint of the collar ($33.30), Bayer would receive an 18% equity stake in ELAN, but Bayer intends to monetize these shares in due course.

With product expansion and mergers closing this stock should ramp up nicely.

OK, thx. Float is 80% short, not sure that fact alone would account for it completely.

A guess: Some people shorted ELAN when tendering their LLY shares in the swap, planning to cover with their newly obtained ELAN shares.

LLY announces tender offer for share swap:

https://www.prnewswire.com/news-releases/lilly-will-initiate-divestiture-of-its-remaining-interest-in-elanco-animal-health-300792222.html The exchange offer is designed to permit Lilly shareholders to exchange their shares of Lilly common stock for shares of Elanco common stock at a 7 percent discount, subject to an upper limit of 4.5262 shares of Elanco common stock per share of Lilly common stock.

If the upper limit is not in effect, for each $100 of shares of Lilly common stock accepted in the exchange offer, tendering shareholders would receive approximately $107.53 of Elanco common stock.

These values will be determined by reference to the simple arithmetic average of the daily volume-weighted average prices of Lilly common stock and Elanco common stock on the New York Stock Exchange during the three consecutive trading days ending on and including the second trading day preceding the expiration date of the exchange offer, which would be March 4, March 5, and March 6, 2019, if the exchange offer is not extended or terminated.

Re: ELAN’s pending full separation from LLY

LLY plans to divest its remaining ownership of ELAN via a share-swap tender offer (as PFE did with ZTS). Compared to an outright distribution, the swap offer is beneficial for ELAN insofar as LLY’s ELAN shares end up in the hands of only those investors who want them.
