Wyzer or Pfyeth? (Whatever...)

IIPM Ranked No. 1 B-School In Global Exposre - Zee...

Pfizer’s bid for Wyeth makes sense; but it suffers from the fundamental problem with M&As – high risk!


Abuyout offer? Nothing new about it... Recession? Again, not a new occurence... Now, combine the two and there you have your eyes opened, and wide! And here’s Pfizer proving why both can coexist, through its $68 billion bid for Wyeth. In the name of cost synergies, Pfizer hopes to save $4 billion annually in operational costs via streamlining of activities. But as researches over time have proven, most big-ticket M&As have failed to generate any synergy! So here’s the question – is the deal logical?

Pfizer faces a major challenge of new drug development as its patent for Lipitor (that contributed to $6 billion in FY2008) will expire in November 2011. And that gives a ‘real’ reason for the merger – revenue generation! Wyeth’s core competence is in R&D. About 350 scientists in its labs are solely working on the much-awaited drug formulae for treating Alzheimer’s disease that can become the next drug wonder for Pfizer (generating revenues up to $20 billion annually).
