Pfizer posts strong earnings despite Trump's new 'up to 250%' tariff threat

Pharmaceutical giant Pfizer reported better-than-expected quarterly results on Tuesday and improved its predictions for full-year profits, beating Wall Street expectations. The New York-based company reported second-quarter sales of $14.7 billion (€12.74bn) and earnings per share of $0.51 (€0.44). As of around 16.00 CEST, Pfizer shares were up over 4% at $24.58. "Our business is performing well and I'm pleased with the progress we achieved in the second quarter," chairman and CEO Albert Bourla said in a statement. "We continue to be actively engaged with policymakers as we navigate a complicated and rapidly evolving geopolitical environment while also remaining focused on advancing our business," Bourla continued. This despite several policies announced by the current US administration that could hurt drugmakers. Related Irish exports hit record high with pharmaceuticals showing major boost EU Commission loses on all counts in Pfizergate legal case In May, US President Donald Trump signed an executive order whereby pharmaceutical companies would be compelled to lower prices based on a "Most Favored Nation" policy. The price-slashing scheme seeks to ban drug companies from selling products in the US at prices above those in other developed countries. In Europe, the comparison becomes complex, as a significant portion pharmaceutical costs are covered by national healthcare or insurance systems, lowering prices for consumers. Experts warned at the time that this could slash their US revenues and affect availability. Even so, the president doubled down on his plans, sending letters last week to 17 drugmakers, calling for concrete steps to cut prices by 29 September. That includes agreeing to provide their full portfolio of existing medicines at no higher than European prices to every single Medicaid patient. On Tuesday, in an interview with CNBC, he announced that tariffs for pharmaceuticals and semiconductors would be coming in "next week". 'We'll be putting an initially small tariff on pharmaceuticals, but in one year, one-and-a-half years, maximum, it's going to go to 150% and then it's going to go to 250% because we want pharmaceuticals made in our country," he told CNBC.

Revel Showcases Leadership in Grid-Optimized Electric Vehicle (EV) Charging at New Williamsburg Superhub, Scaling Impact on NYC's Energy Transition

Using leading virtual power plant software, Revel supports New York City's grid during extreme heat events showcasing the future of climate resiliency in an increasingly electrified sector NEW YORK, August 05, 2025--(BUSINESS WIRE)--As electrification surges across New York City, Revel is showcasing leadership in grid-optimized electric vehicle (EV) charging. The Brooklyn-based electric mobility pioneer has officially activated SmartKit Demand Response technology at its new Supercharging Hub located at the historic Dime Building (275 South 5th Street, Williamsburg) — a state-of-the-art charging site that supports the city's clean energy transition while reducing emissions and grid strain. This marks Revel's fourth year participating in grid services across its various facilities. The Williamsburg facility represents the latest milestone in Revel's partnership with SmartKit®, a virtual power plant (VPP) software developed by Logical Buildings. By strategically shifting the timing of vehicle charging sessions, Revel helps alleviate pressure on the grid during peak hours — when electricity is both dirtiest and most expensive — while generating revenue through utility-provided Demand Response incentives. As New York City accelerates toward a carbon-free grid under its ambitious climate goals, grid-interactive electric vehicle infrastructure will be critical. Charging intelligently, particularly during extreme weather and demand spikes, reduces emissions from peaker plants — which can emit twice as much CO₂ and 20 times more NOₓ than traditional power sources. Revel's grid-responsive operations were put to the test as New York City kicked off the 2025 Demand Response season with three consecutive curtailment events from June 23 to June 25, many lasting 10+ hours each. This sustained effort, which required Revel to dynamically schedule charging loads across its infrastructure, played a key role in supporting grid stability during an unprecedented strain on the electric system due to extreme heat with temperatures soaring in the triple digits on June 24. "Our Williamsburg Superhub proves that EV infrastructure can be a grid asset, not a strain, by dynamically responding to grid stress signals," said Paul Suhey, Revel COO & Co-Founder. "As electricity demand rises with electrification and continued extreme heat events, smart charging plays a crucial role in helping New York build a resilient, decarbonized future." The severity of the recent grid stress cannot be overstated. On Tuesday, June 24, the utility provider in New York and Westchester forecasted electricity usage to reach 100.71% of the system peak — a rare and urgent grid stressor. (By comparison, Demand Response events are typically triggered when demand hits just 92% of peak capacity). Additionally, the New York Independent System Operator (NYISO) reported that peak electricity demand reached 31,857 megawatts (MW) during the three-day heat wave—the highest level recorded since 2016.1 During these critical events Revel's actions provided immediate and measurable grid-positive relief. At its Williamsburg Superhub, which houses 15 public EV charging stalls capable of fully charging a vehicle in 20 minutes or less, Revel curtailed 250 kilowatts of load, contributing to avoided emissions from fossil fuel peaker plants. This targeted load reduction is expected to yield tens of thousands in grid services revenue — while delivering instantaneous and impactful resiliency for the local power grid. "Revel is showing how electric mobility companies can actively participate in electric load management," said David Klatt, President of Logical Buildings. "By using SmartKit, Revel is turning electric load into flexible, responsive capacity — a replicable model for cities looking to decarbonize while electrifying. As cities decarbonize, electric use will rise—and this new electric demand needs to be grid-interactive." The Revel–SmartKit® partnership first launched in 2021 with the company's electric moped fleet and has now evolved into a powerful model for full-scale EV infrastructure. With the new Williamsburg Superhub online and integrated into New York's Demand Response programs, Revel is actively shaping the next phase of grid flexibility and reliability.
