Present Situation
World leading producer of generic pharmaceuticals Current products:
Generics: Zocor, Zoloft Innovative: Copaxone, Azilect

Current generic market share:


18% of U.S. generic market Significant presence in U.K. and the Netherlands Small presence in Germany, France, Japan

Increasing competition in authorized generic market Financial Position:


Cash flow from operations for 2006 was over $2 billion Net sales for 2006 reached $8.4 billion, a 60% increase over 2005 2007 Outlook Net sales to exceed $9 billion

Strengths
IMPORTANCE
Low cost manufacturing strategy esp. supply chain Acquisition capability size & global footprint Highly efficient Paragraph IV pipeline Strategic relationships
National pharmacy chains Israeli academic institutions (R&D)

Weaknesses
Increasing diminishing returns on acquisitions Heavy dependence on U.S. market Over reliance on few products Copaxone: 11% of revenue Small R&D Budget

Market leader in U.S. generics Backward integration active pharmaceutical ingredients

Analysis of Environmental Trends


- New entrants from India and Eastern Europe - Big Pharma plans to enter generic markets - Increasing competition for authorized generic drugs - Global demand for generics increasing - Innovative pharmaceutical markets - Increasing complexity in drugs - Niche and biosimilar markets largely untapped

Impact

High

- Erosion of generic prices in the U.S.

- Many blockbuster patents expiring in near future

Low

Low Probability of Growth

High

Key Decision
How to expand in the future? Continue U.S. and similar market consolidation Expand into global branded generic markets
Large, established markets (Japan, Germany, France) Emerging markets (Latin America, Asia)

Increase specialization
Niche and biosimilar generic drugs Innovative drugs

Or some combination

Continue consolidation in U.S. market


Pros Streamlines the market Savings through synergy Increased scale/production Less price competition Easily add products/markets Cons Increased anti-trust risk Incompatible networks Increases G&A expenses Declining prices for commodity generics

Expand into Emerging Markets


Pros Large potential market Rapidly growing prescription market in Latin America Current core competencies match market needs Ivax acquisition included access to Latin American markets
Cons

Expand into large, established markets


Pros Instant access to: High usage of prescription drugs Higher price point Cons Physician based system Prefer name brand products
Harder to enter High sales cost Large Populations Wealthy Population

High competition from local companies (i.e. Ranbaxy in India) Highly regulated markets

Niche and biosimilar markets


Pros Higher margins than current commodity generics Untapped segment of generic market Rapid growth expected and increasing importance Very few competitors
Cons

Innovative Drugs
Pros 100% market share Portfolio growth and diversity High profitability over longer period Cons Heavy capital & R&D investment High risk of failure Different business model than generics

Higher production costs Higher initial capital requirements Require physician prescription Regulations in U.S. undecided Sandoz first to market in Europe

Recommendations
How to expand in the future? Maintain market share in U.S. Expand into global markets that deregulating to become more pharmacist driven Follow CVS and the like into emerging markets Increase specialization into niche and biosimilar generic drugs

Implementation Challenges
Unknown Factors
New Markets

Production
Estimating production for emerging markets

Price
Creating a proper pricing models for various markets

Implementation
The prior recommendations take into account the Strength, Weaknesses, Opportunities and Threats. TEVA should partner with large national pharmacy chains to enter emerging markets. Further TEVA should enter developed markets as they deregulate to pharmacist driven markets. TEVA should also take advantage of its current relationship with academic institutes in order to create niche and biosimilar product, which have a lower R&D cost than innovative products.

Evaluation
TEVA should evaluate generic sales on a quarterly basis for each country they sell to. Research should be done to gauge:
Consumer reaction to the introduction of generics in markets Consumers expectations of appropriate price, placement, and quality
