Europe just said yes to Zenrelia, a daily pill that calms skin itching in dogs. This opens a sales opportunity worth about $500 million. If the medicine sells as expected, earnings per share in 2025 could jump by about one-third. Traders reacted positively on July 25, so the mood is upbeat and many expect the stock to revisit $18-19 within roughly three months, a gain of about 20 %. The price has held steady for weeks, hinting that most sellers are already out.

Primary drivers

  • European green light for Zenrelia could add about $0.28 to 2025 earnings
  • Price has been quietly firming after a lull, showing buyers may be taking control
  • Selling its farm-animal business could bring cash and help pay down debt faster
  • Around 8 % of shares are bet against; good news in August could force them to buy back
