Upturn Advisory & Investor View for OGN

10/12/2026: OGN (2-star) has a low Upturn Star Rating. Not recommended to BUY.

Organon & Co is a pharmaceutical company that separated from Merck & Co. to focus on women's health, biosimilars, and established medicine brands. The company leverages a stable, cash-flow-generating portfolio to support its dividend and fund strategic, bolt-on acquisitions. While it holds a leading position in specific areas like reproductive health, it faces significant risks from its high debt burden and competitive pressure from generic and biosimilar rivals. The stock is generally seen as a fit for value and dividend-focused investors seeking steady income over rapid growth. Investors should monitor the company's ability to reduce debt, successfully integrate new acquisitions, and navigate patent-related revenue challenges.

Upturn Scorecard

Upturn Star Rating

★★★★★
OGN receives a 3-star rating, supported by solid unit economics. The rating is constrained by soft analyst coverage, weak price momentum, and limited analyst upside.

Company Fundamentals

★★★★★
OGN has moderate overall fundamentals (3 stars), with solid financial health, soft growth momentum, and solid ownership. In FY2025 versus FY2024, solid cash generation (FCF margin 8.7%) is partially offset by negative earnings growth (-78.4%), slightly negative revenue growth (-2.9%), soft profitability (net margin 3.0%).

Financial Health Rating

★★★★★
OGN's financial health is supported by solid cash strength, including free-cash-flow generation (8.7% of revenue). Profitability is moderate (3 stars), which helps explain the 4-star overall score.

Growth Momentum Score

★★★★★
OGN's growth profile is soft, with the least-weak measure being revenue growth at -2.9% FY2025 versus FY2024. By comparison, while earnings growth (-78.4%, negative) and free-cash-flow growth (-8.5%, negative) hold the profile back, so recent growth is not broad-based across the business.

Ownership

★★★★★
Institutional ownership is 84.8% and approximately 92.5% of outstanding shares are publicly tradable, supporting liquidity and institutional participation. Insider ownership is only 0.46%, which materially reduces the ownership score.

BlackRock Inc 12.21%
Pentwater Capital Management LP 6.89%
Vanguard Portfolio Management, LLC 5.76%
Vanguard Capital Management, LLC 4.54%
State Street Corp 3.68%

Unit Economics (Per $1K Revenue)

★★★★★
OGN generates approximately $541 of gross profit, $207 of operating income, and $87 of free cash flow for every $1,000 of revenue. Based on FY2025 results. Solid margins and solid cash conversion support the rating, although capital efficiency remains soft.

Economic Dimensions

★★★★★
Effective Tax Rate: 56.00%

Quantitative Style Profile

★★★★★
OGN has a high-quality, liquid profile. Weak momentum is the primary drawback, while elevated volatility.
