Perrigo Company plc (NYSE: PRGO) is a leading global provider of over-the-counter (OTC) consumer goods and pharmaceutical products, delivering high-quality healthcare solutions at affordable prices. Established in 1887, Perrigo has grown from a packager of generic home remedies to a top-five global OTC manufacturer and supplier of store-brand infant formulas. Headquartered in Ireland, Perrigo operates across North America, Europe, Australia, Israel, and China.
Perrigo's diverse product portfolio includes private-label consumer health goods sold to major retailers such as Walmart, Amazon, Costco, and CVS. In addition, the company offers branded OTC products, generic extended topical prescription products, and receives royalties from the multiple sclerosis drug Tysabri®.
In recent years, Perrigo has focused on expanding its consumer self-care business. A significant milestone was the FDA approval of Opill®, the first-ever daily birth control pill available OTC in the U.S., which Perrigo began shipping in March 2024. The company's strategic initiatives also include Project Energize, a growth and efficiency program aimed at driving sustainable, value-accretive growth.
Perrigo continues to make strides in the industry, as evidenced by its financial performance and strategic partnerships. The company reported net sales of $1.1 billion for the first quarter of 2024, despite facing challenges such as inventory de-stocking at U.S. retail customers and supply chain constraints. Perrigo's leadership team, including the recent appointment of Roberto Khoury to lead the Consumer Self-Care International segment, is committed to driving innovation and expanding the company's global footprint.
