How to read these bars and different assessments

Council is a separate blend of available disciplines; MoonshotScore above remains the five-pillar research rating.

Bars show each model's ordered assessment on its own scale, not a probability or a comparable investment return. The adjacent words give the assessment; more filled segments indicate a stronger model reading.

One of these lenses reads this company less favourably than the MoonshotScore does: Englander-style lens. Each lens is a separate scoring function over its own inputs, so a disagreement is a difference of method rather than a correction — the page's answer stays the MoonshotScore above.

On Sep 9, 2026, the Munger lens read the price at that time as fairly valued against its own estimate of value.

Readings on this page are from Oct 5, 2026, except a card that shows its own read date.

~2 min · open the film

1 · What is it?

What is AstraZeneca (AZN), and what does it report?

Short answer · as of

AstraZeneca is an integrated global biopharmaceutical company, not a development-stage biotech awaiting a flagship approval. It sells established prescription medicines through primary and specialty care channels while funding discovery, clinical development, manufacturing and commercialization across a broad geographic network.

Research dated 2026-09-12.

AstraZeneca is an integrated global biopharmaceutical company, not a development-stage biotech awaiting a flagship approval. It sells established prescription medicines through primary and specialty care channels while funding discovery, clinical development, manufacturing and commercialization across a broad geographic network.

The reporting mixes therapeutic-area totals with named medicine sales: oncology and rare disease appear alongside Tagrisso and Farxiga, while cardiovascular, renal and metabolic medicine revenue is also grouped as a franchise. Those lines describe the portfolio from different angles and should not be treated as mutually exclusive components.

2 · Latest results

What do the latest results show for AstraZeneca (AZN)?

Short answer · as of

The most recent reported quarter, Q2 FY2026, carried revenue of $15.38B.

Research dated 2026-09-12.

Revenue edged higher in the latest reported period, and gross profit also advanced, but operating profit, net income and earnings per share retreated as research and commercial spending rose. Reported earnings exceeded expectations while revenue came in slightly below expectations, breaking the recent run of revenue outperformance without erasing the broader annual growth trend.

Management reiterated its constant-currency growth outlook and continues to direct an elevated share of revenue toward research spanning oncology technologies and the cardiovascular, renal and metabolic pipeline. It also expects product mix to pressure gross margin as seasonal demand shifts toward lower-margin FluMist and Beyfortus, making the revenue mix as important as the revenue direction.

3 · Financial strengths and risks

What are the financial strengths and risks for AstraZeneca (AZN)?

Short answer

Cash and short-term investments were $4.96B at the Jun 30, 2026 balance-sheet date. Operating cash flow was $2.89B for the quarter ended Jun 30, 2026, meaning operations generated cash. These figures do not establish a cash runway.

Research dated 2026-09-12.

Operating cash flow has remained positive throughout the displayed history despite substantial capital expenditure and rising research investment. Profitability screens remain healthy, but the latest cash balance declined from the preceding period and near-term liquidity ratios indicate that liquid current resources do not fully cover current obligations.

Debt materially exceeds cash and short-term investments, and it remains larger even when long-term investment holdings are included. AstraZeneca therefore needs its marketed portfolio to keep funding pipeline investment and capital needs; weaker sales from major franchises, heavier commercialization expense or the expected unfavorable product mix would reduce the room available for debt service and reinvestment.

4 · What to check next?

What should you watch next at AstraZeneca (AZN)?

Short answer · as of

The next earnings report is expected on Oct 30, 2026.

Research dated 2026-09-12.

The upcoming report should be read through product mix rather than revenue alone. Watch whether overall sales maintain momentum, whether earnings growth holds as research and commercial costs rise, and whether the anticipated FluMist and Beyfortus mix change produces the gross-margin pressure management described.

Cash conversion is the financial cross-check: operating cash flow should remain sufficient after capital spending while cash, investments and debt stay in balance. Tagrisso, Farxiga, the broader oncology franchise and rare disease sales deserve particular attention because their scale makes them central to whether commercial growth can absorb sustained pipeline investment.

5 · Peer comparison

How does AstraZeneca compare with its peers?

Short answer

AstraZeneca's score ranks 5th of 13 in the bounded comparison shown, against 12 same-model peers. These are company scores, not expected investment returns. The set lists named competitors first, then companies in the same data-provider industry classification closest in market value; that classification is the provider's, not our judgment of business similarity.

Research dated 2026-09-12.

AstraZeneca combines the commercial reach of a global drug manufacturer with research spending more commonly associated with an aggressively expanding pipeline. Unlike a biotech whose value rests mainly on future approvals, AstraZeneca already draws substantial sales from oncology, cardiovascular, renal, metabolic and rare-disease medicines while developing new modalities through internal work and collaborations.

Oncology is the largest disclosed therapeutic grouping, but the business is not an oncology pure play: Farxiga, the wider cardiovascular, renal and metabolic franchise, and rare disease provide meaningful commercial breadth. That mix spreads demand across established medicines and treatment areas, while retaining exposure to the research cost and execution risk inherent in bringing new therapies to market.

AstraZeneca Healthcare Stock: Key Questions Answered

Research dated 2026-09-12; the answers below are from that research, and the full attribution is under Sources. The last 3 questions are answered from this page's own dated data, not from the research.

How do Tagrisso and Farxiga fit into AstraZeneca’s reported revenue?

Tagrisso and Farxiga are named medicine sales presented alongside broader therapeutic-area totals. Adding every displayed line together would overstate revenue because the presentation describes overlapping portfolio views rather than independent segments.

Sources (as of 2026-09-12): Business description; Revenue by segment

Why can AstraZeneca’s gross margin weaken while revenue grows?

Management expects seasonal demand for lower-margin FluMist and Beyfortus to weigh on product mix. Revenue can therefore advance while the profit retained from each unit of sales declines.

Sources (as of 2026-09-12): Management outlook — dated call excerpts; Quarterly income statement (USD thousands)

Can AstraZeneca fund its pipeline from operating cash flow?

Operating cash flow has stayed positive across the displayed periods while research spending remained elevated, although capital expenditure absorbs a meaningful portion. The durability of that funding model depends on marketed medicines continuing to support pipeline and infrastructure investment.

Sources (as of 2026-09-12): Operating cash flow by quarter (USD millions); Annual revenue and net result (USD millions); Quarterly income statement (USD thousands); Management outlook — dated call excerpts

Is AstraZeneca mainly an oncology company?

Oncology is its largest disclosed therapeutic grouping, led in part by Tagrisso, but AstraZeneca also has substantial cardiovascular, renal, metabolic and rare-disease businesses. Farxiga and the rare-disease portfolio make the company broader than an oncology pure play.

The 85 rows below are exactly the facts the evidence-backed sections of this page printed — the 10-second verdict, the MoonshotScore, price and market value, the five questions with their receipts, and the records behind this page. Known dates and sources are recorded on their own rows; an em dash or UNRECORDED tier preserves a stored observation without inventing either. The quarterly income statement is provider-standardized (FMP) under one row, and scale definitions — a 0-100 rating, the band ladder, the Piotroski 0–9 range — are fixed rather than measured. No number in those sections was generated by a model. The register does not cover quoted third-party headlines, the dated council readings, or the Frequently Asked Questions; each of those says where it came from where it stands.

"As of" is the date the value is true for where the source carries one — a quarter end, a filing date, a price close, the day the score was computed. A cached observation with no source date remains undated; the page publication date is not used as a substitute.
