Certain Market and Industry Factors

The global pharmaceutical industry is a highly competitive and highly regulated industry. As a result, we face a number of industry-specific factors and challenges, which can significantly impact our results. The following discussion highlights some of these key factors and market conditions.

The process of obtaining regulatory approval to manufacture and market new branded and generic pharmaceutical products is rigorous, time consuming, costly, and inherently unpredictable. Complex generic products are often more difficult, costly and time-consuming to receive regulatory approval and bring to market compared with commodity generic pharmaceutical products. Any delay in regulatory approval could impact the commercial or financial success of a product.

Regulatory approval, if and when obtained, may be limited in scope. Even if regulatory approvals for new products are obtained, the success of those products is dependent upon market acceptance.

Generic products, particularly in the U.S., generally contribute most significantly to revenues and gross margins at the time of their launch, and even more so in periods of market exclusivity, or in periods of limited generic competition. As such, the timing of new product introductions can have a significant impact on the Company’s financial results. The entrance into the market of additional competition generally has a negative impact on the volume and pricing of the affected products. Additionally, pricing is often affected by factors outside of the Company’s control. Conversely, generic products generally experience less volatility over a longer period of time in Europe as compared to the U.S., primarily due to the role of government oversight of healthcare systems in the region. In addition, U.S. governmental agencies provide funding for certai

We expect that any reduction in that funding will have a negative impact on our financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.

For branded products, the majority of the product’s commercial value is usually realized during the period in which the product has market exclusivity. In the U.S. and some other countries, when market exclusivity expires and generic versions of a
