Marwood Case Study

Engagement Purpose

A European alternative asset management firm sought Marwood’s assistance in evaluating the risks and opportunities associated with a potential investment in a publicly-traded international specialty pharmaceuticals company. The Company manufactures specialty pharmaceutical products, including branded and generic prescriptions, through wholesalers, hospitals and pharmacies in nearly 100 countries around the world. Marwood analyzed the Company’s UK business line specifically.

Marwood Analysis

  • Evaluated overarching pricing and volume outlook for the Company’s product lines in the UK
  • Analyzed the potential risk of the Company being investigated by the Competition and Markets Authority for an abuse of a dominant position
  • Assessed the impact of the proposed Health Service Medical Supplies (Costs) Bill within the UK
  • Provided insights as to the Company’s reputation with key national and local decision makers within the UK

Key Findings

Marwood concluded that the Company would experience some pricing pressure coming from specific legislative and regulatory changes, however, overall volumes were expected to remain stable. Marwood assessed that though the Company had recently gone under reputational damage, it was mostly among local decision makers who did not have significant direct influence on national purchasing decisions.
