IQVIA HOLDINGS INC

Iqvia (IQV) Stock

Global provider of clinical research services and extensive data. Here's the price, business snapshot, and what's worth knowing about Iqvia in June 2026.

IQVIA Holdings Inc. (IQV) is a global provider of clinical research services, real-world data, and analytics to the life sciences industry. It operates as a contract research organisation (CRO) delivering clinical trial management, regulatory support and commercial analytics, combining operational trial capabilities with large proprietary healthcare datasets and technology platforms. The business benefits from structural trends: pharmaceutical and biotech firms outsourcing R&D, rising demand for real-world evidence and use of analytics/AI to shorten time-to-market. With a market capitalisation around $37.2bn, IQVIA’s scale and global footprint are competitive advantages, though growth depends on contract wins, regulatory trends and continued tech investment. Key risks include competitive pressure, project concentration, regulatory and data-privacy challenges, and sensitivity to R&D budgets. This summary is for general educational purposes only and not personal investment advice; values can fall as well as rise and investors should check current filings and suitability for their circumstances.
