World Population 2003-2007

• World population to reach 6.6 billion by 2007 - growth concentrated in developing regions

• Declining birth rates and increases in life expectancy will continue to drive a gradual shift in the global demographic profile

• These trends will continue to drive up both pharmaceutical consumption and the cost of healthcare provision in both developed and developing countries

Latin America/Canada: Political, Business and Healthcare Environment

April 15, 202323

© 2002 IMS Health Incorporated or its affiliates. All rights reserved.

Political and Economic context

• Fragile economies and political instability will continue to affect the operating environment for pharmaceutical companies in most Latin American markets

• The currencies in all Latin American countries tend to be at risk from economic and political problems of their neighbours, while Mexico is particularly susceptible to movement in the US dollar

• The exchange rates are forecast to stabilise from 2004-05 onwards as the Latin American economies recover

• Progress towards increasingly open, market-led economies should benefit the pharmaceutical industry in the medium to long term

Source: IMS Health: IMS Market Prognosis Latin America 2003-2007

April 15, 202324

Economic context

• Canada has had the fastest growing GDP among the G7 group over the past two years, largely driven by buoyant domestic demand

• In addition, Canada has the strongest fiscal position among the G7 group with the Canadian budget in surplus for five consecutive years

• Canada is vulnerable to fluctuations of the US economy:US accounts for 73% of imports and 85% of exports

Source: IMS Market Prognosis Canada 2003-2007

April 15, 202325

© 2002 IMS Health Incorporated or its affiliates. All rights reserved.

Healthcare environment

• Lack of access to healthcare for large segments of the population in several Latin American countries

• Healthcare primarily provided through the public system, with little in the way of a primary care infrastructure

• Corruption and inefficiency within the public health sectors are rife, despite increasing government attempts to address the problems

• Hard-pressed governments will continue to implement healthcare cost-containment policies wherever possible - pharmaceutical spending being a key target

Source: IMS Health: IMS Market Prognosis Latin America 2003-2007

April 15, 202326

© 2002 IMS Health Incorporated or its affiliates. All rights reserved.

Healthcare environment

• Healthcare in Canada is publicly financed and privately delivered through the Medicare system

• Spiralling costs have prompted calls for a National Healthcare Reform, looking into

– Introducing new protection against ‘catastrophic’ prescription drug expenses

– Establishing a National Drugs Agency to evaluate drugs, regulate pricing, develop a National Formulary and control costs

– Reviewing patent legislation to facilitate access to generics

– Introducing health management approach to primary care

Source: IMS Market Prognosis Canada 2003-2007

April 15, 202327

© 2002 IMS Health Incorporated or its affiliates. All rights reserved.

Pharmaceutical business environment

• Growth of the pharmaceutical market is mainly driven by increasing demand and introduction of new drugs

• Cost containment measures, including a common drug review process, are putting downward pressure on market growth

– While higher prices for innovative treatment have been widely accepted, drugs categorised as less innovative will be the major target for containing cost

• The operating environment over the next few year looks set to be volatile while the healthcare reform is being debated

• Approval of new drugs by Health Canada is the slowest among OECD countries — 717 days in 2001

Source: IMS Market Prognosis Canada 2003-2007

April 15, 202328

© 2002 IMS Health Incorporated or its affiliates. All rights reserved.

Pricing

• Prescription drug prices remain free from direct government control in most major markets, with the exception of Brazil

• The reintroduction of government price controls remains a potential threat in Colombia and Argentina

• Given the recent economic turmoil, massive discounting as a marketing tool is widespread across the region

Source: IMS Health: IMS Market Prognosis Latin America 2003-2007

April 15, 202329

© 2002 IMS Health Incorporated or its affiliates. All rights reserved.

Pricing

• Prices of patented drugs in Canada are controlled by the Patented Medicines Prices Review Board (PMPRB)

• The PMPRB monitors Canadian prices in comparison to seven countries: US, UK, France, Germany, Italy, Sweden, Switzerland

• Price increases for individual products are tightly controlled and limited to rises in the Consumer Price Index (CPI)

– Pharmaceutical Manufacturers Price Index (PMPI) has increased by just 0.8% vs. 2.6% increase of the CPI between 1998-2001

• Introduction of the Common Review Process is likely to exert more downward pressure on prices

Source: IMS Market Prognosis Canada 2003-2007

April 15, 202330

© 2002 IMS Health Incorporated or its affiliates. All rights reserved.

Copy products

• Copy products will continue to account for substantial share of most Latin American markets

• Only gradual improvements in levels of intellectual property protection

• Some governments in the region will hesitate to introduce stronger patent protection - conflict regional/international trade agreements vs. protection of national pharmaceutical industries

Source: IMS Health: IMS Market Prognosis Latin America 2003-2007

April 15, 202331

© 2002 IMS Health Incorporated or its affiliates. All rights reserved.

Generics

• Seen by many governments in the Latin American region as the key to providing quality medicines at affordable prices

• Extensive copy product markets and the brand-consciousness of both prescribers and patients are major barriers to generics uptake

• Brazil has been most successful: true generics claiming 8% share of the Brazilian market by volume just 2 years after the first approval of bio-equivalent products

Source: IMS Health: IMS Market Prognosis Latin America 2003-2007

April 15, 202332

© 2002 IMS Health Incorporated or its affiliates. All rights reserved.

Generics

• While 42% of prescriptions written in Canada are generic, generic drugs accounted for only 14% of the value of the total retail and hospital markets in 2002

• Generics prices are not regulated by the PMPRB; market forces exert downward pressure, e.g., provincial formularies, new entrants, purchasing power of pharmacy chains

• The generics sector has experienced significant consolidation in recent years driven by entry of global players (Teva, Ratiopharm)

• The generics industry would benefit from the healthcare reform, esp. the review of patent legislation

Challenges for Abbott in the Latin America/ Canada region

• Performance across the region: How to close the gap and grow at least with the market? Which therapy classes and products, current and future, would drive growth?

• As markets continue to open up, where are opportunities for partnerships and licensing?

Economic &political context

Healthcare

Regulatory

• The Argentine economy remains in deep recession following the governments debt default and exchange rate devaluation in January 2002

• Argentina continues to suffer from political disintegration and social unrest which will continue into at least 2004

• A period of stabilisation for the exchange rate is projected in 2004-2007

• Public hospitals are key in providing access to even basic healthcare - almost half the population is being denied effective healthcare

• Erosion of healthcare funds due to increasing treatment cost, low levels of efficiency and endemic corruption

• Cost containment measures shift financial burden towards patients

• Efficient and transparent approval process in place; approval to import products already on the market in US, Europe or Japan within 6 months

• Harmonisation of regulations governing pharmaceuticals in Argentina, Brazil, Paraguay and Uruguay under Mercosur trade agreement

• Limited implementation of new patent protection law

Pharmaceutical business environment

Source: IMS Health: IMS Market Prognosis Latin America 2003-2007

• A number of multinationals pulled out of the Argentinean pharmaceutical market and have found it difficult to regain previously held market shares on their return

• Despite Roemmers and Bago heading the sales rankings in Argentina, the local industry is highly fragmented

• A true Argentinean generics market has yet to emerge; lack of regulations seen as major barrier

• OTC medicines account for <10% of the Argentine market by value

• The complex nature of the distribution system in Argentina limits the margins of individual players, compromises efficiency and encourages corruption

• Widespread discounting as marketing strategy since collapse of the economy

Regulatory

• The Colombian economy remains sluggish

• Long running Colombian civil war continues - attacks from rebel armed forces aimed at destabilising the political environment

• Currency depreciation risks remain - renewed rebel violence and widening public sector debt

• Healthcare reforms high on the governments agenda - expand healthcare coverage

• GP referral system introduced - shortage of doctors affects rural areas

• 7% of population have private health insurance

• Bioavailability and bioequivalence studies mandatory for generics - uncertainty about which products to comply

• Harmonisation of regulations governing pharmaceuticals in Bolivia, Colombia, Ecuador, Peru and Venezuela under the Andean Pact

• Improved intellectual property protection of pharmaceutical patents

Pharmaceutical business environment

• Colombian pharmaceutical market driven by price rather than volume growth

• Local pharmaceutical industry developed strongly - ability to copy new products

• Manufacturing by multinationals driven out - lawlessness and civil war

• Generics culture - doctors in public sector legally obliged to prescribe generically - generics companies gaining market share from original brand manufacturers

• Illegal OTC dispensing of prescription drugs - adoption of International Classification System for OTC medicines should help

Economic &political context

Healthcare

Regulatory

• The Mexican economy is recovering from recession

• Politically stable - but weak congressional majority will frustrate attempts to pass legislation

• A period of stabilisation for the exchange rate is projected in 2004-2007 - but susceptible to movements in the US dollar

• Public hospitals and clinics are key to providing access to healthcare - <3% of population have permanent private health cover

• State reimbursement of pharmaceuticals - limited to products included on essential drugs list

• Introduction of bioequivalent (interchangeable) generics in 1998 - good quality products at low prices for the government and patients

• Improvements in efficiency and transparency of approval process - registration times may lengthen in 2004 if introduction of re-registration and bioequivalence standards are ratified

• Tighter enforcement of GMP (Good Manufacturing Practices) standards

• Packaging and labelling requirements for drugs sold to institutional sector dropped in 2003 - reduce packaging costs for manufacturers

• Harmonisation with US and Canadian regulatory frameworks, as members of NAFTA

• Mexican pharmaceutical market remains an attractive target for foreign multinationals - despite recent slow-down in volume growth

• Local manufacturers halved over past decade - represent <20% of market in value terms

• Deliveries to retail pharmacies via wholesalers dominates pharmaceutical distribution

• OTC sales affected by recent economic downturn

• Physicians remain major promotional target - detailing visits typically brief and promotional strategies relatively basic

• Discounting remains widespread throughout distribution chain - driven by competition for market share

Healthcare

Regulatory

• Economic recovery is expected to continue in 2003-2004 as global economy picks up and economic and financial instability in neighbouring countries abates

• Unstable political situation - lack of congressional majority will frustrate necessary reform programmes and strengthening of leading opposition parties

• Nuevo Sol - most stable Latin American currency - continued stabilisation in 2004-2007

• Constitution guarantees healthcare for all - reality is patchy medical coverage, under-funded public facilities and a small undeveloped private healthcare sector

• 60% of pharmacy sales for medications without a doctors prescription

• Disrupted regulatory system due to change in government - personnel changes and increased internal bureaucracy to clamp down on corruption

• Proposals to require all imports to be labelled in Spanish - problems for multi-nationals

• Harmonisation of regulations governing pharmaceuticals in Bolivia, Colombia, Ecuador, Peru and Venezuela under Andean Pact trade agreement

• Increasing competition among generic manufacturers is driving overall market prices down

• Preferential bidding conditions in institutional sector for local producers - multinationals complain of discrimination

• Discounting - growing strength of pharmacy chains puts pressure on manufacturers to cut prices - trend to intensify

• The Venezuelan economy is rocked by political instability, national strikes and depreciation of the currency

• Moderate depreciation of the currency is expected in 2004 and beyond

• Economic and political crises complicating relations with neighbouring countries

• Healthcare coverage remains severely restricted - 16-20% little or no access to healthcare services

• No national drug reimbursement system - patients have to pay to visit a doctor

• Private sector well-established - primarily because of inadequacies in the public system - 25% of population have private health insurance

• Efficient and transparent approval process in place; generic and copy products approved in 60 days, original brands approved in 180 days

• Absence of adequate patent protection - 5% of products on Venezuelan market protected by patents

• Harmonisation of regulations governing pharmaceuticals in Bolivia, Colombia, Ecuador, Peru and Venezuela under the Andean Pact trade agreement

• Pharmaceutical companies have seen sharp falls in volume and value sales - economic recession and devaluation of the bolivar

• New law states any imported medicine with copies in Venezuela subject to VAT at 16%

• Few multinationals have manufacturing bases in Venezuela - others have established plants in neighbouring countries - greater social and political stability

• Doctors prefer to prescribe by brand - lack of confidence in generics quality

• Wholesalers maintain important role in distribution of pharmaceuticals

• OTC market hardest hit by depressed economy - non-essential status of OTC products - strong growth in sales of natural products
