Michael Novod's questions to Novo Nordisk A/S (NVO) leadership • Q2 2025
Question
Michael Novod from Nordea inquired about the company's manufacturing capacity for accelerating international launches and the upcoming oral semaglutide for obesity, and also asked for clarification on the deprioritization of Rybelsus.
Answer
CFO Karsten Knudsen highlighted that Wegovy sales in International Operations are up fourfold year-to-date, indicating rapid scaling, and confirmed the oral semaglutide obesity launch will be non-supply restricted. David Moore, EVP of U.S. Operations, affirmed that commercial priorities are Ozempic and Wegovy, suggesting flattish trends for Rybelsus are a reasonable expectation.
