It has a history of aggressive expansion, including the purchase of numerous companies throughout its long and successful history. ROG has many shareholders, with the founding families still owning a majority stake.
ROG.ZU stock value has remained strong overall for the past several years. The company is listed on the Six Swiss Stock Exchange. One of the primary reasons for Roche Holdings AG’s success on the stock market is the purchase of many leading pharmaceutical firms, with the purchase of Genentech for $46.8 billion in 2009 being the most noteworthy. It should be noted that the company has previously issued bearer shares. However, Swiss regulatory changes will soon render this type of stock illegal, as the country aligns itself with other OECD nations.
