Eli Lilly $LLY ( ▲ 4.57% ) just secured one of the most consequential policy wins in healthcare. The drugmaker reached a deal with the US government that will allow Medicare to cover GLP-1 obesity treatments for certain patients beginning next year.

Leerink Partners said the move could reshape the obesity drug market, upgrading the stock to Outperform from Market Perform and lifting its price target to $1,104, nearly 14% upside from current levels.

Leerink’s David Risinger said the Medicare coverage expands Eli Lilly’s potential US obesity treatment base by roughly 40 million patients, more than four times today’s total market. While prices could moderate under the agreement, the analyst expects Lilly’s scale, brand recognition, and diversified obesity pipeline to more than offset lower margins.

Leerink expects three new drugs — orforglipron, retatrutide, and eloralintide — to further strengthen Lilly’s leadership in metabolic medicine. Each targets a distinct patient group, from those seeking low-cost or non-injectable options to those with severe obesity or GLP-1 intolerance. Together, they could anchor Lilly’s next decade of growth.

Lilly shares have already climbed about 25% this year, but Leerink sees more runway ahead. As Medicare coverage opens the door to broader adoption, Lilly’s position as the dominant player in weight-loss treatments looks even stronger.

With a fast-expanding addressable market and multiple “blockbuster” candidates in the pipeline, the drugmaker’s growth story is far from plateauing, it’s just getting started.
