Consolidation Must Be Seen in a Broader Context
of...
  • Pipeline productivity
  • Prices for late-stage in-licensing
  • Strategic myopia

3
The biggest and most important industry deals
generally stem from a problem of productivity.
4
The Pfizer Situation1999
  • The Warner-Lambert Lipitor co-promotion
  • 205mm upfront, milestones 50 of ongoing costs
    one of three quids
  • Years 1-7, Pfizer gets 44.5 of revenues if
    baseline sales achieved 31.5 years 8-10
  • W-L can exit at year 6 for any reason at year 4
    for change in control (Pfizer gets 75 of what it
    would be otherwise owed)
  • Losing 25 of ones share of the biggest drug in
    the world is a big number!
  • Warner could leverage its year 6 exit option for
    another drug, particularly since it had begun to
    lose confidence in eletriptan.

Revealing the Real Downside of the Lipitor Deal
  • If Pfizers own pipeline doesnt produce, what
    will it do to supplement its 25 of the biggest
    drug in the world?
  • The Trovan disaster
  • Pfizers late-stage pipeline problems of 99
  • Droloxifene (dropped for breast cancer in phIII)
  • Darifenacin (dropped for irritable bowel in
    phIII)
  • Zopolrestat (dropped for diabetic neuropathy in
    phIII)
  • Eletriptan (80mg dose non-approvable)

Pfizer Would Have Trouble Supplementing Pipeline
with New Co-Promotions
  • Few new blockbuster products available that can
    make up for its pipeline losses
  • Unclear the available late-stage quids it can
    offer to a partner
  • Eletriptan and inhaled insulin both partnered
    leaving ziprasidone--now Geodon, but at that
    time, as Zeldox, somewhat problematic thanks to
    its 1998 non-approvable letter

Source IN VIVO, November 1999
7
With No Other Choice, Pfizer Reverses Course
  • Negotiates for acquisition of Searle
  • Launches hostile bid for Warner
  • Downsides
  • Hurts status as partner of choice
  • Must create long-term success through
    consolidation without damaging short-term
    performance--when there are few earlier models of
    success
  • Pfizer itself hasnt done significant previous
    pharma acquisitions

8
The Situation 2001
  • Pfizer 30bb in sales
  • Meeting earnings targets thru consolidation
    synergies
  • Less clear which new drugs will provide dramatic
    sustained growth
  • A few clinical disappointments (Agourons cancer
    drug)
  • Major new co-promotions signed by competitors
  • Novartis Zelmac goes to Bristol Celltechs
    CDP-870 to Pharmacia
  • Several companies dropped out of Spiriva bidding
    due to BIs insistence on a short-term deal
  • Rumors of next acquisition already flying

9
Pfizers Situation is Big Pharmas Situation
  • Near term pipeline gaps
  • Harvest of genomics still years ahead
  • But increasing pressures on pricing of current
    products worldwide
  • Fear that the Third World price reductions will
    come to the US
  • Medicare drug benefits
  • Increasing dependence on US market
  • Meanwhile Wall Street is demanding double-digit
    earnings growth
  • The hostile threat

10
MA solves the most important of these problems,
at least in the near term, through cost-savings.
  • The three-year solution.

But Most Big Pharma Consolidation Does Little
Else Beyond First Three Years
  • Mergers fuel marketing arms race, do not clearly
    increase marketing productivity
  • Marketing spend at largest companies creeping up
    to 40 of sales
  • No clear RD productivity gains from larger
    budgets
  • No top executives seriously argue that deals are
    RD driven
  • Rarely alter total pipeline prospects
  • Companies with rich pipelines too expensive to be
    taken over

13
Then again, it aint easy to find new products
any other way, either.
14
The JJ ModelBuy Mid-Sized Underexploited
Pipelines
  • Centocor (7/99) 4.9bb acquisition (Source HQ)
  • ReoPros value 1.25bb (5 x 99 est. sales of
    480mm) x 50 (since Lilly takes 50 of sales)
  • Retavases value 770 8.5 x estd 99 sales and
    2.4 x price Centocor paid Roche 18 mos. earlier
  • Remicades value 2bb (15 x estd 99 sales 7 x
    estd 285mm 00 sales approved only for Crohns
    disease--but data supports approval for RA)
  • But JJ was right on Remicade 500mm sales 2000
    340 increase over 1999.
  • Same with Alza? (4/01) 13.1bb--21x sales
  • Figures 40 growth for top three products under
    JJ (Concerta, Ditropan, Doxil330 of total
    607mm product contract sales)

15
But most companies arent interested in niche
products.
  • So they pay MA prices for in-licensed products.

The Increasing Cost of Late-Stage Deals

17
Bigger and Riskier Deals
  • Novartis/Bristol on Zelmac vs. Pfizer/Warner on
    Lipitor
  • Bigger relative economics
  • two quids vs. one quid similar cash lower
    royalties
  • For smaller-market drug
  • 2-4bb in IBS vs. 8-10 bb in cholesterol
    lowering
  • With less available data (one Zelmac ph III trial
    complete, one ongoing vs. all Lipitor ph III
    trials complete)
  • Merck KGAA/GlaxoSmithKline on Paxil follow-on
    EMD-68843
  • Ph II product with no superior efficacy data

Increasing Competition for Important Late-Stage
Products from Big Biotech
  • Theyve been living on the edge for years.
    Were concerned about risks in trials,
    manufacturing, the marketplace. They obsess less
    about these risks. And the companies with a
    greater tolerance for risk will overtake those
    companies doing things the old fashioned
    way.--Sr. Pharma Exec.
  • Genentech
  • OSI, Actelion (bosentan and tezosentan),
    Cor/Schering
  • Amgen
  • Praecis, Immunomedics, Synergen
  • ImmunexAbgenixs EGFR inhibitor
  • BiogenElans Antegren

20
The size can create co-promotion partner of
choice idea is a myth!
  • In part because product lines of the mega-merged
    companies are too wide to avoid internal
    competition with in-licensed product.

21
Whos Got the Leverage?
  • Mid-sized biotech-based drug companies
  • Growth is easier for smaller companies
  • Easier to grow 20 annually on 500mm in sales
    than 10 on 20bb in sales
  • Wider variety of development choices than Big
    Pharma
  • Dont need to limit themselves to 1bb products
  • Unafraid of large molecules
  • Similar access to discovery resources and
    probably greater ability to integrate them into
    RD process
  • Big Pharma
  • Money always talks

22
Squeezing the Traditional MiddleSell-Out or
Bust-Out
  • Pipeline problems of Big Pharma without the cash
  • Selling out is easiest and can be lucrative
    BASF, DuPont
  • Bust out is expensive and risky
  • PG tries to buy Warner/AHP--began 50 price
    decline, ouster of CEO
  • Abbott/BASF
  • Difficult to cut costs in Europe
  • One main clinical candidate (D2E7 see
    comparative value of Pharmacia/Celltech)
  • Major ongoing costs (375-400mm in interest
    expense which is half estimated peak sales for
    D2E7)
  • But Abbott needed European presence, pipeline,
    and large-molecule capacities

23
Acquisition that Works
  • Reinvention
  • Financial sophistication
  • Strength adds strength

24
Novartis Nearly New
  • Marketing is almost completely new
  • Most top corporate marketing execs new to
    organization
  • Thomas Ebeling, Andrew Kay
  • Many key country/local marketing managers
  • Paolo Costa, Kurt Graves (US), Adrian Adams (UK),
    Giacomo di Nepi (Italy), Masahiro Michisuji
    (Japan)
  • New global branding religion
  • Diovan up 54--early evidence of renewed effort
  • RD still largely Sandoz
  • But major renovation of phase III IV efforts
  • With a huge dollop of good luck (6 of 7 ph III
    products reached target profiles Zelmac,
    Starlix, Gleevec/Glivec
  • Original thinking around pricing Glivec/Gleevec
  • But all for naught if launches underperform
  • Particular questions on Starlix

Roche/Genentech
  • 60 acquisition in 1990 leaves independent,
    infuses cash, but takes ROW marketing rights
    option to acquire remainder at capped price
  • Now accounts for gt10 of Roches total sales
  • Reacquisition and Divestiture
  • Buys remainder (33) at 82.50/sh (3.7bb)
    immediately sells 16 of new shares at 97/sh
    (1.9bb) then same amount at 143.50/sh
    (2.9bb)and so on
  • Roche financial income accounted for 30 of
    total income in 2000

26
Intrabiotech Deals Can Work Because...
  • Buying companies for capabilities, not cost
    reductions
  • Buyer generally adds credibility and financial
    stability to sellers program, allowing for
    step-up in deal value when comes time to sign a
    Big Pharma partnership
  • Buyers can afford to go after niche products Big
    Pharmas believe they cant afford

27
Intrabiotech MA Alkermes
  • Acquisitions
  • Enzytech (1992 29mm)
  • Medisorb (1996 7mm)
  • Advanced Inhalation (1999 106mm)
  • Even after late-stage failure of major alliances
    with Schering and JJ, broad platform enables it
    to maintain market cap

Alkermes Acquisition of AIRA Tidy Profit for
Advanced Inhalations Shareholders

29
But Alkermes Now in a Position to
ChallengeSpecialty Pulmonary Players
  • AIR had three feasibility deals
  • But questionable whether it could convert them on
    its own because no human proof of principle, no
    manufacturing
  • If AIRs technology didnt work, no fall back
  • Alkermes bet investors willing to accept dilution
    for broader base
  • And Alkermes shares rose after transaction--fully
    paying for dilution
  • Because of Alkermes greater credibility, able to
    turn feasibility deals into full-scale programs
    with GSK, Lilly (on insulin) and MedImmune

Other Exemplary Intra-Biotech Deals
  • Genzyme/GelTex
  • RenaGel Welchol
  • Amgen/Synergen
  • IL-1ra (now key RA and, possibly, sepsis program)
  • Millennium
  • ChemGenics (1/97--89mm--4.625/MLNM sh)
  • Leukosite (10/99--585mm 8.25/MLNM sh)
  • Cambridge Discovery (7/00--53mm, cash)
  • Current MLNM price 45 (market value 9.5bb)

Intrabiotech MA Potential Solution
  • But so far largely done for late-stage
    products...
  • Chiron/Pathogenesis 729mm cash (Tobi)
  • Elan/Liposome 675mm (Evacet)
  • Genzyme/Geltex 1bb (Renagel, WelChol)
  • And/or at relatively low prices...
  • For every Evotec/Oxford Assymetry (475mm in
    stock) theres Targeted Genetics/Genovo
    (68.9mm) Antigenics/Aquila (40mm) or
    CeNeS/Cambridge Neuro (40.8m)
  • And therefore are seen as admissions of failure
  • And intrabiotech MA always managerially
    difficult
  • Who will be CEO, CFO, CSO?

34
To Make Big Pharma Mergers Work Requires Real
Reinvention
  • Most acquirers have serious long-term problems
    most acquisition targets likewise problematic.
  • Attractive targets are attractive either because
    plenty of costs to cut or for pipeline /or
    growing products
  • Former deals work for max. of 3 years without
    reinvention
  • Latter deals too expensive (Sanofi at PE45x
    Lilly at highest PEG in industry)
  • But while acquirer willing to restructure target,
    not usually willing to restructure itself
  • Mergers generally involve weaker companies--and
    create unwillingness to restructure X 2

35
So What Do We Expect from Dealmaking in the Next
Few Years?
  • Continuing intrabiotech MA (particularly of
    one-technology players), without significantly
    shrinking the total number of biotechs
  • The start-up machine runs by itself
  • Continuing consolidation among Big Pharma
  • Survival dealmaking will be increasingly
    expensive
  • New models of Pharma MA must be created
  • Big Pharma will learn how to do deals for maximum
    value
  • If they dont, we will see the arrival of the
    Disrupters

36
The Disrupters?
  • Big Pharmas unwilling to restructure can make
    attractive targets for large-cap outsiders
  • Particularly those with strong information
    systems applicable to target marketing perhaps
    discovery/development
  • Ability to finance deal
  • With debt (Big Pharma balance sheets
    extraordinarily unleveraged)
  • Saving on ballooning marketing costs
  • The GE multi-divisional, goal-oriented management
    style
