Eight analysts have cut their earnings estimates, although market capitalization ($1.51 billion) and the P/E ratio (15.55) remain. In the second quarter the company beat expectations on adjusted earnings ($2.21 per share) and revenue ($266 million), but cut its full-year forecast for Cortrophin by $20–25 million due to weaker performance in the first half of the year.
