Interpretation of Results • The company is undervalued. • Despite the loss of exclusivity on certain drugs, it has a sufficient number of new patents and pending approvals to offset the loss in revenues. • Synergies and efficiency. Cuts in cost to augment R&D. • Long term projects which will generate growth in the future. • Future opportunities for generating cash flows include: current demographics of developed countries large number of untreated patients within certain therapeutic categories (ex. High cholesterol) development in emerging markets
