Licensing is playing an increasing role in the business models of pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies. In 2001, 16.4 per cent of sales from the top 20 pharmaceutical company sales were derived from inlicensed drugs, equal to approximately $38 billion.

However, pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies alike must improve all stages of their licensing deals - from deal identification through to management - to reduce the current rate of attrition, estimated to be over 50 per cent by senior pharmaceutical executives interviewed.

The art of conducting successful licensing is a particularly difficult one to perfect. However, doing so is of critical importance to the industry. Considering the complex nature of deal structures, the many barriers and obstacles to deal management and the overwhelming need for companies to build strong pipelines, the industry's increasing investment in licensing deals must be matched with improved execution strategies.

Report Methodology

Licensing Strategies contains extensive research and analysis of the licensing activity of large pharmaceutical companies. This included the compilation of a comprehensive licensing database containing all technology and product licensing agreements made by the top 20 pharmaceutical companies from 2000 to 2002.

In addition to this comprehensive data source, senior industry executives from leading pharmaceutical companies were interviewed as part of the research process and to validate all recommendations made.

'. Across the top 20 pharmaceutical companies, reliance on licensed drugs for sale is projected to increase from an average 14.8 per cent in 2001 to 19.1 per cent in 2007. '

Key findings and highlights

- Licensing is playing an increasing role in the business models of pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies. In 2001, 16.4 per cent of sales from the top 20 pharmaceutical company sales were derived from in-licensed drugs, equating to over $38 billion.
- More than one in three technology agreements made by large pharmaceutical companies since 2000 have involved target validation technologies.
- A typical upfront fee for phase III deals is approximately $110m.
- Cancer and CNS products are the most competitive areas for licensing agreements. This is because these therapy areas offer high market growth and high levels of unmet need.

'. We perform diligent NPV calculations for phase III deals but the greater number of uncertainties surrounding phase II deals makes the calculations less valid. '
