Teva reports Q4'17 earnings decline; forecasts sales drop in 2018

Teva Pharmaceutical Industries Ltd. said fourth-quarter earnings declined year over year, and it forecast a drop in revenue for 2018.

Non-GAAP net income attributable to Teva in the quarter was down to $1.01 billion, or 93 cents per share, from $1.48 billion, or $1.38 per share, a year earlier.

The S&P Capital IQ normalized EPS consensus estimate for the fourth quarter was 76 cents.

The Israeli drugmaker's revenues fell by 16% to $5.46 billion, from $6.49 billion in the same year-ago period, mainly due to generic competition for its key products as well as the challenging market dynamics in the U.S. generics market.

On a GAAP basis, net loss attributable to Teva was $11.54 billion, or a loss of $11.41 per share, compared to a net loss of $973 million, or a loss of $1.10 per share, in the corresponding quarter of 2016.
