Gustavo Miele's questions to Hypera SA (HYPMY) leadership • Q1 2025
Question
Gustavo Miele asked for Hypera's outlook on the semaglutide (Ozempic) market post-patent expiration and its potential impact on sell-out, and also inquired about how the rise in dengue cases has affected sales.
Answer
Executive Breno Pires de Oliveira framed the semaglutide patent expiration as a major future opportunity for Hypera, which plans to launch its own version into what he expects will be a large market with sustained pricing. Regarding dengue, he noted it has suppressed demand for ibuprofen (Alivium) but expects a recovery as concerns fade, with the impact mitigated by Hypera's diversified portfolio.
