Sumitomo Dainippon Pharma Co (4506 JP): Myovant Is Crucial for Post-Latuda Growth Momentum

SUMMARY
- Sumitomo Dainippon Pharma Co (4506 JP) offered to acquire Myovant Sciences (MYOV US), which was rejected due to low valuation. The company is unlikely to revise its offer for Myovant.
- As Sumitomo’s in-house drug candidates are still in clinical stages, the company needs Myovant’s already marketed products to maintain its growth momentum post Latuda patent expiry.
- Sumitomo is not expected to sell its existing 52% stake in Myovant. This will ensure that Myovant’s marketed products Orgovyx and Myfembree should continue to remain as Sumitomo’s growth drivers.
