The stock reached an intraday low of USD 7.50, reflecting ongoing challenges in its market performance. Over the past year, Organon & Co. has faced significant headwinds, with a staggering 53.44% decrease in stock value compared to a 12.95% increase in the S&P 500. The company's performance metrics indicate a concerning trend, with a net profit of USD 142.47 million falling by 35.56% in the latest quarter. Additionally, the inventory turnover ratio stands at a low 2 times, suggesting inefficiencies in managing stock levels. Despite a healthy long-term growth rate in net sales of 13.72%, the operating profit has seen a decline of 3.44%.
