Expiring patents have been a major dilemma for pharmaceutical companies. New products that are being introduced are not expected to generate the same level of revenues of the products that have lost patent protection. The Obama administration is currently analyzing a proposal in which the exclusivity period for biologics would be cut down by 5 years. Mergers & Acquisitions activity is expected to pick up in 2012 as companies scramble to look to make up for loss revenues. M&A allow companies to acquire products that are already proven in the market place without the hassle and costs associated with research and development.

“Many of the pharmaceutical companies started producing everything in-house out of their own R&D organizations and over time they’ve failed to produce enough that way. So the industry is now coalescing around a 50-50 model of half on your own and half bought in. There are some things we’ll do for ourselves but we need to be constantly on the lookout for new technologies,” said Angus Russell, Chief Executive of Shire PLC.
