Executive Summary – Generic Pharmaceutical Manufacturing
Generic Drugs
Industry in Growth
Stage
• Growth in revenue outpaces that of GDP
• Acceptance of Generics evident in growing domination of sales mix
at the expense of brand names
Generics Growth
Fuelled by Low Prices
• Lower cost to manufacture than brand names
• Sales further driven by patent expiry of brand names
Use of Generics Aided
by Government
Spending and Reform
• Increased government Medicare and Medicaid spending leading to
more consumer access to prescription drugs as opposed to OTC
• Most insurances (both private and public such as Medicare) do not
cover brand names when generics are available
Aging Population and
Unhealthy American
Lifestyle
• Large aging population increasing – elderly more vulnerable to
diseases that require medication to treat
• Unhealthy American lifestyle, too much fat and calories, inadequate
exercise and fiber, breed obesity and other diseases
2
Industry Definition – Generic Pharmaceutical Manufacturing
• Generic pharmaceutical and medicine manufacturers develop prescription drug
products that are used to prevent or treat illnesses in humans or animals
• Generic drugs are produced, marketed and distributed without patent protection, yet
at the same time comparable to brand listed drug products (if existent) in dosage,
strength, administration, quality, performance and intended use
• Firms are allowed to manufacture generics of brand name drugs AFTER the
expiration of patents protecting the branded drugs, and are able to do so at a much
lower cost due to the bypassing of discovery costs

Based off anticipated US government spending on Medicare and Medicaid (which can be found from
records and projections from the US Government Office of Budget and Administration), we can reason that
a comparable growth rate will be found in projected revenue of the generic drugs industry

• Patent expirations have huge impact on sales, as brand name drugs quickly lose
market share once generic versions are on the market
• Drugs representing more than $140 billion in sales will lose patent protection between
2012 and 2017
• The patent expiry of “blockbuster” drugs would continue to stimulate sales in the
generic industry

Lure of generics are obvious, with a
74% difference in average retail prices
as of 2010
Virtually all major pharmacy chains offer
generics at extremely inexpensive
prices, leading to price wars
Result of this has been an increase in
sales of generics, often at the expense
of brand names
In 2010, 93% of physicians prescribed
generics when they were available –
compared to 83% in 2003
Some 75% of prescriptions dispensed in
2011 were generic drugs – compared to
40% in 2000

•
American population is an aging one, with Americans aged 65-74 estimated to see the greatest
hike from 2011-2016, followed by 55-64s
•
This means that the 2 fastest growing demographics are at or approaching the age when the
aging process will place them at greater risk for a variety of age-related ailments
•
The elderly are more vulnerable to certain diseases, including Alzheimer’s, heart disease,
diabetes, cancer etc, which require preventive or treatment measures provided by
pharmaceuticals

amount of 150 mins of
moderate-intense exercise
Too Many Calories
Daily caloric consumption
up from 2172 a day to 2775

Too Much Fat
Average American diet is
34% fat, 12% being
saturated, above AHA
recommendations of no
more than 7% saturated fat
Not Enough Fiber
Adult Americans consume
only 50% of optimum
amount of fiber

• Lack of exercise and poor diet
primarily responsible for increase in
number of diseases
• 67% of population is
overweight/obese, with cancer and
stroke strongly associated with
obesity
• Some 81 million Americans (34%)
have heart disease, and 92.7% have
at least 1 risk factor for the disease
(obesity, high blood pressure, high
cholesterol, diabetes, smoking)
• According to NIH, diets high in fat
result in higher mortality rates and
incidences of colon, breast and
prostate cancer

• A result of high disease counts has been an increase in the number of prescriptions dispensed,
up 3.2% from 2007 to 2009, almost double the increase in US population in the same time period
•
Those affected by chronic disease and require chronic medication, a large portion of which are
older adults, resort to skipping/reducing doses when faced with increased medication costs
which can lead to expensive hospitalizations and adverse health outcomes
•
However, patients who initiate therapy with lower cost generic medications have higher rates of
adherence, making generics appealing to health care providers who want to ensure treatment
compliance and avoid unnecessary spending

Risks
Risk 1 – OTC, Complementary & Alternative Medicine
• Greater motivation to self-treat in order to save time and money with a trip to the doctor
• Greater Availability of OTC remedies that were once available only with a prescription to treat
minor illnesses such as colds, allergies, headaches or coughs
• Desire for natural healing (CAM) to avoid potential side effects from prescription drugs
Risk 2 – External Competition from Brand Names
• Many brand competitors try to prevent or delay approval of generic equivalents by attempting to
extend patent protection
• Brand competitors sometimes launch authorized generics concurrent with 1st generic launch
• Brand competitors also seek to lower prices of brand name drugs after patent expiry to compete
with generic equivalents
Risk 3 – Other Health Care Reforms or Changes to Current Policies
• “Evergreen” loophole in health care regulation that allows innovator drug companies can extend
market exclusivity for branded drugs through strategies like authorized generics
• Branded-Generic patent settlements paid to firms to compensate generic producers for keeping
generics off the market
• Changes to current policies with elections coming up and potentially new directions could
adversely affect the generic drug industry
Source: IBISworld, Mintel & Various Firms’ 10K Analysis
21
Conclusion and Recommendation
Industry: Positive
• Growth stage industry fuelled by continual acceptance of products, low prices of goods
and federal health care spending
• State and behavior of American population set to have positive effects on prescription
drugs and therefore generic industry in the next 5 years
Industry Risks to
Overcome
• Competition from brand name manufacturers that attempt to keep generics off the
market for a longer period of time
• Must stay responsive to potentially new government regulations and health care
reforms, especially during election years
Why Recommended
Firm(s)
• HITK is profitable, with 4.7 Quick Ratio showing good financial health and liquidity in
addition to having minimal debt (0.01 Debt-Equity Ratio)
• LGND with diverse revenue generation, yet could mean complicated business model
• Both with ROE well above industry average and poised to take advantage of trends

How to Calculate Patent Expiry
What are CAMs?
23
How to Calculate Patent Expiry in USA
For Patents filed before 08/06/1995 (INID Code 22)
• Add 17 years to patent issue date shown on front page of patent (INID code 45) to
obtain 1st date
• Add 20 years to the application date of the earliest related application shown on the
front page of patent (INID codes 62 or 63) to obtain 2nd date
• Later of the two dates is the expiry date
• Add any applicable extensions of adjustments to the patent term, and then account for
any terminal disclaimers to obtain the full-term expiry
For Patents filed on or after 08/06/1995 (INID Code 22)
• Add 20 years to the date of the earliest related application show on front page of
patent (INID codes 62 or 63) to obtain the expiry date
• Account for any terminal disclaimers to obtain full-term expiry

What are CAMs?
Complementary & Alternative Medicines
• A group of diverse medical and health care systems, practices, and products that are
not generally considered part of conventional medicine
• Complementary medicine refers to the use of CAM together with conventional
medicine, such as using acupuncture in addition to usual care to help lessen pain
• Alternative medicine refers to the use of CAM in place of conventional medicine
Categories of CAM
• Natural Products – “natural products”, many sold OTC as dietary supplements, include
probiotics
• Mind & Body Medicine – focus on interaction among brain, mind, body. Techniques
include meditation, postures, yoga, acupuncture, breathing exercises, tai chi etc
• Manipulative & Body Based – focus on the structure and systems of the body including
bones and joints, soft tissues etc, such as spinal manipulation or massage therapy
• Other CAM – these include movement therapies such as pilates etc to promote
physical, mental, emotional and spiritual well-being. These also include manipulation of
energy i.e. magnet therapy
