Fully revised and updated, the report provides details of 2,269 M&A agreements from January 2020 to June 2024.
The report provides a detailed understanding and analysis of how and why companies enter M&A deals. The majority of deals are acquisitions whereby the acquirer acquires the target company in a cash and/or equity transaction.
Merger and acquisition is a constant activity within the biopharma sector. In the past, biopharma companies have sought to merge or acquire competitor companies in order to achieve critical mass both in R&D and sales and marketing, thus ensuring continued growth and dominance in a highly competitive and global marketplace.
In 1987, the largest ten companies were responsible for approximately twelve percent of global pharmaceutical sales. By 2002, this figure had become nearly fifty percent. This concentration was principally due to big pharma mega mergers.
The rewards offered for the successful marketing and sale of a blockbuster drug are enormous, therefore it is not surprising to see big pharma seeking ways of maximizing returns. Licensing has often been a means of achieving such global presence, but increasingly big pharma has sought to acquire its way into the major pharmaceutical markets. Until recently the mega merger was a popular means of growing presence globally; however the last few years have seen a concentration on smaller acquisitions to bolster R&D pipelines.
This report focuses on M&A between big pharma-big pharma, big pharma - smaller company, big biotech-big biotech, big biotech - smaller company, and smaller company-smaller company, providing a detailed insight into all such deals.
