Two Paths to Success in Branded Generics Pharmaceuticals

Today we announced the third in a recent series of strategic moves that reshape our branded generics pharmaceuticals business (EPD) for optimal performance, and further shape today’s Abbott for continued success and accelerating growth. Following our agreements to acquire the Latin American pharmaceutical company CFR and the Russian drug maker Veropharm, Abbott today announced that we will sell our branded generics pharmaceuticals business in developed markets to Mylan.

“We’ve been working to build our competitive capability in the developed markets,” said Mike Warmuth, Executive Vice President, EPD.  “And we’ve made progress.  But by combining with Mylan, with its capabilities in these markets, this business instantly takes a big leap forward.”

“At the same time, becoming a single-model business will significantly strengthen EPD,” Mike continued.  “We can now apply a consistent approach across our business, which will make us much more focused, efficient and effective.”

The transaction is expected to close in the first quarter of 2015.  Until that time, EPD will continue to operate per usual.  Approximately 3,800 employees who work in or support EPD’s developed markets business will be transferring to Mylan. Mylan will assume EPD’s business in the following countries:

EPD’s manufacturing facilities in Chatillon, France and Katsuyama, Japan will also become part of Mylan.  Operations at Victoriaville, Canada; Neustadt, Germany; and Weesp and Olst in the Netherlands will remain in EPD.

Announcement from Miles D. White

Subject:  Evolving in Branded Generics Pharmaceuticals

Dear Colleague,

As you’ve seen through recent announcements, we’re taking significant actions to position our branded generics pharmaceuticals business, EPD, for future success.  In recent weeks we agreed to acquire CFR Pharmaceuticals, greatly expanding our presence in Latin America, and Veropharm, similarly strengthening our business in Russia.   Today we take the next big step in this process with our announced sale of the developed markets operations of EPD to Mylan.  Full details are in our press release.

EPD currently has two very different sides, one serving developed markets (such as Europe, Canada and Japan), the other serving emerging markets (such as India, Russia and Latin America).  The developed markets business requires some capabilities we don’t currently have in those countries. Our agreement with Mylan will strengthen both businesses — and quickly.  For the developed markets, Mylan has the type of scale across distribution channels that we’ve been working to build.  As for our emerging markets business, it now becomes the entirety of EPD, enabling the division to specialize, grow our expertise, and take targeted strategic actions to build our position and leadership around the world.  This creates greater opportunity for both our employees joining Mylan and those remaining with Abbott, as both businesses will become stronger competitors in their areas of focus.

The most important thing to understand here, for Abbott, is that branded generics remain a critical part of our corporate strategy, as underscored by our recent acquisition agreements.  Today’s action is a step forward in our strategy and focus for this business.  It emphasizes our strengths and improves our growth potential.

I want to thank our colleagues in the developed markets branded generics business for their dedication to Abbott and for all the fine work they’ve done.  Decisions like this are difficult to make. However, the logic of this decision for both halves of our branded generics business is compelling. As we saw with our separation of proprietary pharmaceuticals into AbbVie, creating two businesses with sharper focus on consistent models is a successful strategy.  We’re confident it will again lead to two stronger businesses, better able to compete in their respective markets.

Best regards,

For Immediate Release

Abbott to Sell its Developed Markets Branded Generics Pharmaceuticals Business to Mylan

Abbott will retain its branded generics pharmaceuticals business in emerging markets

Transaction expected to positively impact Abbott’s sales and ongoing earnings-per-share growth rates

ABBOTT PARK, Ill., July 14, 2014 — Abbott announced today that it will sell its developed markets branded generics pharmaceuticals business to Mylan for equity ownership of a newly formed entity that will combine Mylan’s existing business and Abbott’s developed markets pharmaceuticals business, and will be a publicly traded company. This represents a value of approximately $5.3 billion based on Mylan’s closing stock price on Friday. The developed markets portion of this business generated approximately $2 billion in sales in 2013. Abbott will retain its branded generics pharmaceuticals business and products in emerging markets. Abbott also retains its other businesses and products in developed markets.

“This transaction provides Abbott with additional strategic flexibility as we continue to actively manage and shape our portfolio, reflecting our commitment to long-term, durable growth,” said Miles D. White, chairman and chief executive officer, Abbott. “Our branded generics pharmaceuticals business will focus on emerging markets, where demographic changes and increasing access to healthcare are expected to drive sustainable growth.”

Abbott’s Branded Generics Pharmaceuticals Business

Following the closing of the transaction, Abbott’s branded generics pharmaceuticals business will focus in emerging geographies where demographics and growing healthcare systems are combining to create an increased rate of patient access to healthcare and where the majority of healthcare products are paid for by the consumer. The branded generics business that will remain with Abbott generated 2013 sales of $2.9 billion and is expected to have a sales growth rate in the upper-single to double digits.

Transaction Details and Financial Terms

Under the terms of the agreement, Abbott will sell its developed markets branded generics pharmaceuticals business to Mylan for 105 million shares or approximately 21 percent, on a fully diluted basis, of a newly formed entity that will combine Mylan’s existing business and Abbott’s developed markets pharmaceuticals business, and will be a publicly traded company.

The business to be sold operates in Europe, Japan, Canada, Australia and New Zealand and includes approximately 3,800 employees. It includes a broad portfolio of medicines, as well as manufacturing facilities in France and Japan. Abbott will retain its product portfolio and manufacturing facilities in other geographies as well as its manufacturing facilities in the Netherlands, Germany and Canada.

Following the transaction, which is expected to close in the first quarter of 2015, Abbott expects that its sales growth rate will be 100 basis points higher, and the growth rate of its ongoing net income will be in excess of 200 basis points higher. The ongoing net income associated with Abbott’s developed markets pharmaceuticals business is expected to be approximately $0.22 per share in 2015. Accordingly, Abbott’s ongoing earnings per share from continuing operations is expected to be lower following the close of this transaction by this amount.

Abbott does not expect to be a long-term shareholder in Mylan and plans ultimately to redeploy the net proceeds from this transaction to opportunities that would be accretive to earnings over time.

In May, Abbott announced the acquisition of the Latin American pharmaceutical company CFR Pharmaceuticals, which is expected to be approximately $0.07 accretive to Abbott’s ongoing earnings per share in 2015.

Abbott expects to report its developed markets branded generics pharmaceuticals business as Discontinued Operations beginning in the third quarter 2014.

Morgan Stanley advised Abbott on the transaction.
