  • The Top 30 Global Medical Device Companies
    The Top 30 Global Medical Device Companies Gains Top Declines The success of the medical device industry is never more apparent than when you examine the numbers being produced by manufacturers in this market. Year by year, today’s top companies show that dedication to the bottom line can help amass steady growth, with most of the top 30 companies posting healthy double- digit gains over the prior fiscal year. Of course, with all the competition and consolidation occurring in daily business, some companies showed signs of weakness with flat or, even worse, declining sales and profits—however, they are in the minority. While US companies tend to dominate the top 30, the proliferation of international giants shows that the industry is generating more and more profits from global outreach efforts, particularly in China, Japan and Europe. The dollar’s fluctuating worth will surely continue to impact sales over time, though. As the following in-depth company examinations show, new product innovation usually plays the most prominent role in determining success and sustainability year after year. At least one of the companies on this list will disappear in 2006. Guidant will probably go down in history as one of the top newsmakers of 2005 due to Boston Scientific’s aggressive acquisition of the cardiovascular product maker—not to mention Guidant’s mounting legal troubles stemming from a slew of product recalls and reports of improper handling of related problems with its ICDs and pacemakers. Parent company Kodak has also been weighing the merits of selling its longtime healthcare division and, by this time next year, that segment could be operating under another owner.

  • The Leading Source of Diabetes Business News the Long View Fall
    The Leading Source of Diabetes Business News The Long View Fall 2011 • No. 108 Although change isn’t literally in the air for me – here in San Francisco, we still get a few more weeks of summer – autumn brings some notable shifts in the world of diabetes, and I’m looking forward to hearing all about them in companies’ third-quarter financial updates. Perhaps most importantly, Amylin/Lilly/Alkermes’ Bydureon, the first once-weekly diabetes therapy, has now made its debut in several European countries. That means this earnings’ season will be the first chance to hear how the launch has gone, and we’ll get our first real indicator of what to expect in the quarters to come. Will patients flock to the every-seven-days dosage schedule, forcing rival GLP-1 companies to accelerate development of their own once-weekly products (and encouraging Amylin/Lilly/Alkermes to stay on course with their phase 2 once-monthly exenatide)? Or will factors like needle size, injection simplicity – and even the regularity of daily dosing, considered an advantage by some – give the edge to Victoza? (Novo Nordisk certainly isn’t resting on the success of this soon-to- be-blockbuster, having most recently launched Victoza in the swiftly growing Chinese market – a topic we explore in this issue’s interview with Novo Nordisk’s head of China, Ron Christie.) The global GLP-1 contest was already intensely competitive and has become more so, even before Bydureon’s entry to the US or the arrival of new players (e.g., Sanofi’s Lyxumia).
