The latest announcement is out from Novo Nordisk ( (NVO) ).

Novo Nordisk reported a 12% increase in sales in Danish kroner and a 15% rise at constant exchange rates (CER) for the first nine months of 2025. Despite a 5% increase in operating profit, the company faced one-off restructuring costs of approximately DKK 9 billion, which impacted its profit growth. Novo Nordisk’s diabetes and obesity care segments showed significant growth, with obesity care sales rising by 37% in Danish kroner. The company also made strategic advancements in its R&D pipeline, including FDA approval for Wegovy® for MASH treatment and the acquisition of Akero Therapeutics. However, the company narrowed its full-year 2025 sales and operating profit growth expectations due to lower growth forecasts for its GLP-1 treatments. Additionally, Novo Nordisk announced an extraordinary general meeting to elect new board members on November 14, 2025.

The most recent analyst rating on (NVO) stock is a Hold with a $55.00 price target. To see the full list of analyst forecasts on Novo Nordisk stock, see the NVO Stock Forecast page.
