"I think is this is a very good boy but not best in show. It is down 23% over the last year, but if they're seeing momentum in sales, this can be a mild market beater. I'm bullish on Zoetis because the flea and tick product line has significant potential."

The discussion provides a detailed analysis of Zoetis (ZTS), highlighting its steady business model with single-digit revenue growth and competitive market pressures. While management is well-vetted given the CEO's long tenure and previous experience at Pfizer, concerns such as regulatory issues and a high debt to cash ratio are noted. Valuation metrics point to a stock priced above 25 times trailing earnings, and although historical issues and modest financial growth raise caution, potential upside from a key product line in flea and tick treatments offers a bullish, yet measured, outlook. The panel remains on the watch list rather than issuing an immediate buy recommendation.
