Covid vaccine gives Pfizer sales and profits a big boost
CNN
Pfizer's sales in the fourth quarter more than doubled, thanks to strong demand for its Covid-19 vaccine. But that wasn't good enough to satisfy investors.
The drugmaker said it posted revenue of $23.8 billion, missing Wall Street's expectations of $24.1 billion. More than half of Pfizer's total sales, $13.9 billion, came from its vaccines unit.
The company also reported net income of $3.4 billion, topping analysts' forecasts. Pfizer said it expects $32 billion in sales this year from Comirnaty, the Covid vaccine. Still, that was below Wall Street's expectations of nearly $34 billion. The company's overall sales and profit guidance for 2022 also missed consensus estimates.

The House Judiciary Committee is demanding interviews with four current and former Department of Justice officials who were involved in subpoenaing phone records for several members of Congress around the January 6, 2021, Capitol attack, the day before Republicans interview former special counsel Jack Smith.
