Introduction

Abstract

Introduction

If consolidation is so advantageous for boosting a pharma company to a new level of productivity, why has Pfizer engaged in not just one but three mega-mergers in the past ten years: $92.3 billion for Warner-Lambert in 2000, $60 billion for Pharmacia in 2002, and $68 billion for Wyeth in 2009? And why would Roche chairman Franz B. Humer have stated: “I' m against mega-mergers and mega-acquisitions because they have a tendency to destroy value rather than to unlock value”? Will post-millennium M&As, including the recent spate of megamergers, yield the desired returns? What companies might be the next to engage - as captors or prey - in largescale M&As? Most importantly, is this the right way to execute lasting change for success, or even survival?

Questions Answered in This Report

  • Nearly 600 pharmaceutical industry M&As took place between the beginning of 2007 and the end of the first quarter of 2009. What are the trends in deal size? What are the motivations for these deals?
  • All eyes are on Pfizer, which is the leader of the pack and a serial consolidator. What lessons can be learned from the industry leader' s pipeline positioning and M&A history? What is the outlook for the company following its latest mega-deal, the acquisition of Wyeth? What has Pfizer itself learned from prior consolidations?
  • But perhaps the industry would be better off watching, and emulating, GlaxoSmithKline. What tack is GSK taking? What are the potential rewards of a strategy that does not involve mega-mergers?
  • M&As have been a pharma industry strategy since the industry began. What will happen next in the M&A world? How can companies begin to successfully manage the fruits of their consolidation deals?

Scope

  • Case studies: deconstructing the Pfizer/Wyeth, Roche/Genentech, and Merck & Co./Schering- Plough mergers - Why? How? How successful are these companies likely to be?
  • History of the mega-merger: 14 big M&As between 2000 and the present that have shaped today' s industry.
  • Future of the mega-merger: potential candidates for future consolidation, herd mentality in the industry, wisdom of the M&A strategy.
  • Diversification strategies in mega-merged and other big companies: specialty pharma, biologics, biosimilars, vaccines, animal health, OTC drugs.
  • CEOs speak out: statements from leading pharma companies reveal strategies - and changes in visions.
