M&A Activity: Emerging Markets in Focus

With sales in the once dominant markets (US and EU) being impacted by the headwinds mentioned above, many leading players in the pharma space are increasing their exposure to emerging markets through mergers and acquisitions (M&A). By doing so, the companies are gaining access to low-cost manufacturing. Moreover, the Chinese, Indian, Brazilian, Eastern European and Russian markets are growing faster than the more mature US and European ones.

For example, pharma giant Abbott Laboratories (NYSE: ABT) is leaving no stone unturned to expand its overall presence in emerging markets. Through the 2010 acquisitions of the pharmaceutical business Solvay Pharma (which has a strong presence in emerging markets) and Piramal Healthcare Solutions coupled with the licensing agreement with Zydus Cadila, Abbott has taken concrete steps to expand its presence in several highly populated, fast-growing emerging markets.

Conclusion

In view of the above facts, we can safely say that the future of the pharmaceutical business is tied to emerging markets. In the face of increasing generic competition and other headwinds, the big names in the pharmaceutical world are turning to emerging markets to sustain growth and profitability.
