Clarivate Plc (CLVT): Among Mid-Cap Stocks Insiders Were Buying in Q1 2025
A state-of-the-art computer lab filled with engineers working on new analytics technologies.
The firm told investors that although Clarivate Plc (NYSE:CLVT) reported better-than-expected fiscal Q1 2025 results, investors are underestimating the time it would take for the company to unlock value, either through divestitures or organic means.
Jefferies sees Clarivate Plc's (NYSE:CLVT) 2026 revenue as flat with 2025 levels, and risk to its business operations due to the current administration's plans to cut funding for the National Institutes of Health and post-secondary education.
The firm thus sees Clarivate Plc (NYSE:CLVT) trading sideways in the near term, justifying the downgrade.
Clarivate Plc (NYSE:CLVT) provides global information, workflow solutions, and analytics. The company operates through the following segments: Academia and Government (A&G), Intellectual Property (IP), and Life Sciences and Healthcare (LS&H).
While we acknowledge the potential of CLVT as an investment, we believe certain AI stocks offer greater upside potential and carry less downside risk.

Cardinal Health expands urology focus with $1.9bn Solaris Health deal
US drug distributor Cardinal Health has signed a $1.9bn agreement to acquire a majority stake in Solaris Health from Lee Equity Partners. The deal aims to expand the Specialty Alliance, the distributor's multi-speciality management services organisation (MSO) platform, in which Cardinal will gain a stake of around 75%. The acquisition will also create the Urology Alliance, comprising a collaborative network of urology providers within Cardinal's Specialty Alliance MSO, as well as resonate with plans to expand the delivery of urological patient care. Cardinal's Solaris buyout complements its recent acquisitions of Urology America, Potomac Urology, and Academic Urology & Urogynaecology, signalling its urologic strategy. The transaction is expected to be completed by the end of this year, pending customary closing conditions. Cardinal Health CEO Jason Hollar stated that growing the Speciality Alliance is a 'top priority' for the company, with the latest urology purchase leaving it 'well-positioned to meet the comprehensive needs of community urologists through the robust combined capabilities of the Specialty Alliance, Specialty Networks and Cardinal Health'. Research indicates there is a shortage of urologists in the US, with 62% of US counties lacking a practising urologist and just one new urologist entering the field for every ten retiring. The figures lead to challenges in the broader field, including delayed diagnoses, increased rates of advanced-stage conditions, and significant health disparities, with these particularly pronounced in rural communities. GlobalData's senior medical analyst Selena Yu foresees Cardinal's acquisition as reflecting a shift from drug distribution with a 'lower profit margin, towards higher margin speciality care in urology'. Yu said: 'MSOs help streamline backend work like billing and staffing to allow for physicians to focus on care. 'Additionally, with a large network of specialists, patients can receive care in the same region by different care specialists, which will reduce wait times and improve care continuity. Additionally, the Cardinal Health Alliance has other specialities like oncology specialists, which makes referrals more streamlined.' Cardinal's acquisition coincided with the release of its Q4 2025 financials. The company's profits per share came in at $2.08, beating the forecasted $2.03, yet profits for the quarter came in at $60.2bn, below the $60.92bn forecast, prompting a pre-market stock drop of more than 11% on 12 August. Cardinal's share price has since recovered to a drop of around 6% to $147.05 per share, down from $157.66 per share at market close on 11 August.

Texas sues Eli Lilly for allegedly bribing providers to prescribe its medications
WASHINGTON (Reuters) -Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton on Tuesday sued U.S. drugmaker Eli Lilly for allegedly "bribing" providers to prescribe its medications. The attorney general's office said in a statement that the company bribed and illegally induced medical providers to prescribe its most profitable drugs, including the GLP-1 medications Mounjaro and Zepbound, used for weight loss and diabetes treatment. "Big Pharma compromised medical decision-making by engaging in an illegal kickback scheme," Attorney General Paxton said. The lawsuit builds upon Attorney General's previous legal action to hold drug manufacturers accountable for fraud and abuse, the statement added. Last year, Paxton had sued insulin manufacturers, including Lilly and pharmacy benefit managers (PBMs), alleging that manufacturers artificially raised the prices of insulin and then paid a significant, undisclosed portion back to the PBMs for preferential treatment in return. Eli Lilly did not immediately respond to a Reuters request for comment.
