at an average of 13.2% in 2009

The big are getting bigger!

The big can get bigger still!


"Only those who are agile and strong will survive in this business,"
said Teva president and CEO Shlomo Yanai during the company's
investor meeting last month in Jerusalem.

"About 15% of our business will come from acquisitions. We are
taking the necessary steps and building our infrastructure by getting
assets and know-how either internally, through acquisition or
partnerships."

Teva estimates its 2009 global sales at $13.9bn, of which 70% are from
generic products. Yanai is targeting $31bn in sales by 2015, of which
70% will still come from generics.

Today, total sales of off-patent $95 billion of sales
biologics amount to amounting to
approximately $20 billion approximately 15 percent
of global pharma revenues.

The average costs of biologic drug treatment is about $72,000/year (compared to about
$1,000 for conventional "small molecule" pharmaceuticals)

The patent cliff: 2010-15

Of total pharmaceutical sales in 2008 of $643.6bn, a
staggering 30% were derived from patented
products which are “at risk” from generic
competition within five years, almost double the
percentage at risk in 2000 of 17%. Whilst the
industry has already started its slide, the patent
cliff becomes seriously precipitous in 2010 when
9%, or $57.5bn, of total market sales are expected
to lose patent protection within the space of 12
months

drugmakers face the
loss of $140 billion in
annual sales by 2016
(of $700bn 2008)


Inhalation market
Approximately 50% of the current $32 billion global market segment for asthma and
COPD medicines is expected to lose patent protection by the end of 2016, according to
industry analysts IMS Health.

The asthma and COPD market segment is projected to grow significantly faster than
the pharmaceutical market, driven by factors including a significant level of under-
diagnosis, and Novartis/Sandoz will hope this acquisition will gain them a large market
share in the future.
Sandoz has signed a definitive agreement to acquire Oriel
Therapeutics, a privately held US pharmaceuticals company,
gaining exclusive rights to a portfolio of generic drug
candidates and related technologies targeting medicines in
the inhalable respiratory drug market.

"There is still room to grow in
generics," says Yanai (TEVA).
"Almost $150bn of branded drugs
are going to be off patent in the next
five years. This does not include the
expiration of biologics, which is an
additional $50bn potential.”


Whats the big pharma plan?

- More investment in R&D?
- Clever anti-generic tactics?
- Switch out before expiry strategies?
- Increase legal spend on ever-greening patents?
- Big budget advertising in BRIC markets?

The patent cliff: 2010-15. Whats the big pharma plan?

Astra Zeneca announced today that it has agreed to market 18 of Torrent
Pharmaceuticals Ltd.’s branded generic drugs in 9 emerging markets, marking the
U.K. drugmaker’s first generic-drug partnership.
Unlike some its competitors, Astra Zeneca is very vulnerable to generic competition as
many of its best selling products such as Nexium for ulcers, the antipsychotic
Seroquel and Crestor for cholesterol. are near patent expiry. Industry analysts expect
the company to lose as much as 25% of its sales revenue to generic encroachment by
2014.


Sanofi-Aventis bought Zentiva NV of the Czech Republic, Helvepharm AG of
Switzerland, Medley SA of Brazil and Laboratorios Kendrick SA of Mexico to
bolster its branded generics portfolio.


“Generics are an important part of the health
care system. ????? believes that when there is a
direct generic equivalent to the prescribed brand
name drug, it should be used provided the
doctor agrees it is best for the patient.”

NEW YORK, March 18 (Reuters) - Pfizer Inc (PFE.N) may still be eager to buy generic
drugmakers, after being outbid for Germany's Ratiopharm in an effort to shore up revenue as
it braces for evaporating sales of its blockbuster Lipitor cholesterol treatment.

Pfizer’s expanded agreements with Aurobindo Pharma Ltd. will grow its generic product
portfolio within emerging markets to reflect the diverse and often unique market dynamics
and commercial interests of more than 70 countries.

Pfizer entered into agreements with Claris Lifesciences Ltd. (“Claris”) to commercialize
sterile injectable medicines after the products are no longer patent protected, and have
lost market exclusivity in North America, Europe, Australia and New Zealand. The Claris
agreements advance Pfizer’s Established Products strategy, which focuses on the
commercialization of products where market exclusivity has been lost. Pfizer’s global
annual sales of established products are approximately $10 billion.

Pfizer’s global annual sales of established products are approximately $10 billion (?!)


Last year, GlaxoSmithKline entered into joint ventures with the generic manufacturers Dr.
Reddy’s Laboratories (India) and Aspen Pharmacare Ltd (South Africa).

Also, the company paid $246.5 million for Bristol-Myers Squibb’s Pakistan and Egypt
drug units and acquired UCB’s drug portfolio in Africa, the Middle East, Asia Pacific and
Latin America for $702 million; clearing signaling its intention to more aggressively
pursue emerging global markets.
