Torreya is a globally active investment bank focused on the pharmaceutical sector. We began to track assets, people and companies in the industry with our own database in 2012. In “The Pharma 1000” report, we leverage our database to identify the top 1000 companies by value today. This presentation provides a summary of the key findings of the report. We hope to give you a greater sense of the global scale of the pharmaceutical industry and its extraordinary growth. We also wish to recognize the companies that appear on the Pharma 1000 list for the accomplishment of becoming a top company in one of the world’s most important and challenging Download the Full Report industries. 3 Torreya Pharma 1000 Study Approach . We identified approximately 30,000 pharmaceutical companies in 2012. Our team studied these companies and pulled out the active operating companies in ethical pharmaceuticals which had a tangible basis for valuation. We have tracked this group and added to it ever since. To be included in the dataset, a company had to be primarily focused on the production and marketing of ethical pharmaceutical products or be directly involved in the marketing of such products, to derive revenue from such marketing activities or to be doing research with the intention of developing marketed pharmaceutical products. We excluded OTC companies, pharmaceutical distributors, pure play manufacturers and API players from the ranking. Because over half the companies are not listed on a stock market, we developed an approach to impute value for private companies (based on financial metrics where available). Our approach is to use publicly-traded company multiples to impute private company value. We value publicly-traded companies using their enterprise value as this reflects the capital market’s valuation of core operations. This is computed using the market close price of a company’s common shares on September 15, 2020 multiplied by the number of common shares outstanding as of the last reported financing period. We then subtracted cash and liquid securities and added back debt to arrive at enterprise value. 4 The Evolving Global Pharmaceutical Sector 5 Sector Size Industry is quite large Torreya’s Torreya’s Estimate of Industry Size: Torreya’s Estimate of Total $1.24 Trillion in revenue Estimate of Total Global Revenues Global Value of of the Ethical Our estimate higher than what has been derived by EvaluatePharma and the Ethical Pharmaceutical IQVIA.* Pharmaceutical Sector in 2020: Sector in 2020: This estimate is the sum of net sales of the largest 1,600 companies in the pharmaceutical sector. $1.24 The value of the commercial side of the drug sector is approximately $6.65 $6.65 trillion. Of this, $5.65 trillion is associated with publicly-traded companies. Trillion Trillion Putting it in Perspective: Pharma is a large and complex growing part of the global economy. If the pharma sector were a country, it would be ranked #15 in the world.

This is because we classify a company with no approved product as a “biotechnology company” and a company with a marketed product that is not a big pharma, not a Japan pharma nor a China pharma as a specialty pharma company.

    GEF Pipeline Entry Project Concept and PDF-B Request Country: Serbia and Montenegro Project Title: Serbia: Reduction of Enterprise Nutrient Discharges Project (RENDR) (under the WB-GEF Investment Fund for Nutrient Reduction in the Black Sea/Danube Basin) GEF Implementing Agency: World Bank GEF Focal Area: International Waters GEF Operational Program: OP. 8 Waterbody-based Operational Program GEF Grant Amount: USD 6-9 million Total Project Cost: USD 12-18 million PDF-B Requested: US$ 350,000 PDF-B Cofinancing: US$ 35,000 (from government) Executing Agency: Ministry of Environment and Natural Resources of Serbia Implementation Start: January 2005 Duration: 5 years 1. Project Summary Serbia is among the largest nutrient polluters of the Danube River and enterprises, notably agro-processing and large scale livestock breeding farms are major sources of pollution. The global environment objective of the Reduction of Enterprise Nutrient Discharges Project would be to reduce nutrient pollution from hotspot enterprises located in the Republic of Serbia. This would also help the country of Serbia and Montenegro (SAM, the union of the Republic of Serbia and the Republic of Montenegro) meet its international commitments under the Danube River Convention. The development objective would be to reduce the negative public health, economic and amenity impact associated with water and soil pollution from enterprise pollutant discharges. The proposed project would consist of four components: (i) Regulatory Reform and Capacity Building; (ii) Investment in Industrial Nutrient Reduction (incl. fertilizer factories, agro-processors, and large-scale livestock farms); (iii) Awareness Raising and Replicability Strategy; and (iv) Project Management and Monitoring. 2. Country Ownership (a) Country Eligibility SAM has signed (2002) and ratified (2003) the Convention on Cooperation for the Protection and Sustainable Use of the Danube River (Danube Convention) (1994).

  • EP Vantage Interview - Silence Hoping to Have Something to Shout About in 2009
    December 22, 2008 EP Vantage Interview - Silence hoping to have something to shout about in 2009 Lisa Urquhart With its first product expected to go into the clinic potentially as early as January, Silence Therapeutics is hoping that 2009 will be year it has something to shout about and one that will reverse the alarming share price decline that has seen the company’s valuation slip from a high of over £170m in June 2007 to £21.6m today. Silence is one of a growing number of companies working in RNA interference (RNAi) and particularly short interfering RNA (siRNA), which work by selectively silencing or inactivating genes related to certain diseases. It is importantly one of only two companies that have composition of matter patent protection for their siRNA drugs. Speaking to EP Vantage, Iain Ross, chief executive of Silence, says: “It’s a big year coming up for us.” The group has spent most of the last 12 months strengthening its IP position, and next year comes the important move of the group’s lead candidate Atu027 into the clinic, an event Mr Ross says should take place in the first quarter of the year. Many expect it could be as soon as the end of January. Partnering focus What is less expected is the speed at which Mr Ross intends to partner the drug, which is being developed in solid tumours, with an emphasis on lung cancer. “We would be looking at doing something either at the end of 2009 or the beginning of 2010,” he says. Key to partnering discussions will be the drug demonstrating good safety data in a number of cancer patients, which could be the catalyst to starting talks with big pharma who have already started to ask about Atu027.

  • Md. Jury Awards $18M to Former Business Partner in Pharma Lawsuit – Maryland Daily Record
    11/26/2018 Md. jury awards $18M to former business partner in pharma lawsuit – Maryland Daily Record Md. jury awards $18M to former business partner in pharma lawsuit By: Anamika Roy Daily Record Legal Affairs Writer November 26, 2018 A jury in a federal lawsuit awarded a Rockville scientist $18 million in a lawsuit against his former business partners. In a lawsuit filed in U.S. District Court in Greenbelt, Claudio De Simone and ExeGi Pharma LLC alleged VSL Pharmaceuticals Inc., Leadiant Biosciences Inc. and Alfasigma USA Inc. tried to make a copy of a drug De Simone created without having access to the proprietary formula and sold a “knock-off” version of the drug. De Simone also alleged the copy product had never been clinically tested, unlike his product, which underwent extensive clinical research, the lawsuit states. After a three-week trial and about 12 hours of deliberations, a jury of seven women and two men found last week that the pharmaceutical companies owe De Simone more than $18 million in damages, including $15 million for false advertising, nearly $1.9 million for unjust enrichment and nearly $1 million for breach of contract, according to online court records. An attorney for De Simone said Monday that the jury was likely swayed in favor of his client because of “the degree of willful misconduct” on the other side. “We proved that they were marketing to the general public, that includes some very sick patients who rely on the product my client invented to manage severe symptoms of gastrointestinal diseases,” said Jeremy W.
