Potential U.S. Tariffs Expected to Have Minimal Impact on Alvotech’s Product Revenues in 2025

Alvotech (NASDAQ: ALVO), a global biotech company specializing in biosimilar medicines, has announced that potential U.S. tariffs on imported pharmaceuticals should have minimal impact on its 2025 product revenues. The company, which manufactures its biosimilars in Iceland, faces a minimum 10% tariff on U.S. imports. This tariff would increase costs for U.S. customers by less than 1% of Alvotech's expected 2025 product revenues.

According to contracted terms, customers are responsible for transport costs and import duties, not Alvotech. CEO Robert Wessman noted that Iceland's favorable trade balance with the U.S. makes higher tariffs unlikely, and emphasized that biosimilars remain the most cost-effective way to increase patient access to vital biologics. Beyond 2025, even with anticipated product launches and increased sales, the tariff impact would still represent a low single-digit percentage of total product revenues.
