With key drug launches, fresh clinical data ahead, and mixed recent returns, the big question now is whether Amgen’s shares still offer room for upside or if the market is already factoring in its future growth prospects.

With the most watched narrative pointing to a fair value just above Amgen’s last close, the gap is modest but hints at untapped potential driven by company fundamentals. Investors are watching closely to see if volume growth and product launches can drive upside in the next cycle.

Advancements in personalized and targeted therapies, reflected in the robust late-stage pipeline (for example, MariTide for obesity/type 2 diabetes, Repatha and olpasiran for cardiovascular, and multiple bispecific T-cell engagers for oncology) position Amgen to launch high-margin, first-in-class products that drive both top-line growth and margin expansion in the coming years.
