Description: GSK GlaxoSmithKline January 29, 2026
GSK plc (NYSE:GSK) is a global healthcare company that develops, manufactures, and markets vaccines, specialty medicines, and general medicines across the United Kingdom, United States, and other markets. Its operations are split between Commercial Operations and Total R&D, covering therapeutic areas such as oncology, respiratory-immunology, inflammation, and infectious diseases.
Key recent metrics (FY 2023): revenue $46.8 bn, net income $5.2 bn, and R&D spend $7.1 bn (≈15 % of sales). The dividend yield stands at roughly 5.1 % and the company returned $5.5 bn to shareholders via buybacks and dividends. The vaccine portfolio generated $4.3 bn in sales, driven by strong demand for Shingles (Shingrix) and RSV immunizations.
Sector drivers shaping GSK’s outlook include an aging global population that lifts demand for chronic-disease treatments, sustained government and private-sector investment in mRNA vaccine platforms (evidenced by the CureVac partnership), and regulatory pressures that favor large, diversified pharma firms capable of navigating complex approval pathways.
