IQVIA Holdings is a provider of analytics, technology solutions, and clinical research services to the life sciences industry. Co. is managed through three reportable segments: Technology and Analytics Solutions, which provides information, technology solutions and real-world insights and services to its life science clients; Research and Development Solutions, which primarily serves biopharmaceutical customers and provides outsourced clinical research and clinical trial related services; and Contract Sales and Medical Solutions, which provides health care provider (including contract sales) and patient engagement services to both biopharmaceutical customers and the healthcare market. The IQVIA Holdings YTD return is shown above.
The YTD Return on the IQVIA Holdings YTD return page and across the coverage universe of our site,
is a measure of the total return for a given investment year-to-date for the current calendar year
(up to the end of prior trading session). Arguably, choosing the current calendar year for a measurement
period is on the one hand completely arbitrary, but on the other hand a year-to-date look can be extremely
useful in the context of our country's tax system which taxes gains and income on a calendar year basis.
Thus, researching Year-To-Date Returns is good practice for investors — whether IQVIA Holdings YTD return or other benchmarks/peers
— and when doing so it is also important to factor in dividends, because a financial instrument's YTD return is
more than just the change in price if that instrument pays a dividend or coupon. Our website aims to empower investors
by performing the IQV YTD return calculation (with any dividends reinvested as applicable), and to provide a
coverage universe of many stocks and ETFs to be able to compare YTD returns.
