enhance your competitor intelligence.
In-depth company profiles are given for the top 12 animal health companies and

Forecasts
Schering-Plough' s pending acquisition of Intervet means that by the end of
2007, almost 70% of the market will be concentrated in the hands of 12
companies. SP' s expanded animal health business will vie with Pfizer and
Merial for outright leadership of the sector, with each of these three giants
generating annual sales of more than US$2billion. The combined market share
held by the three leading players will be in excess of one-third.
Key Findings
Merger and acquisition deals have concentrated shares of the market
increasingly in the hands of a few leading players and have resulted in a
clearer split between ownership of interests in the ‘medicinal’
and ‘nutritional’ segments of the industry.
The report is tightly focused on the core animal health market - a definition
that spans veterinary pharmaceuticals, biologicals and medicinal feed
additives and excludes pure animal nutrition businesses.
Defined along those lines, the global market for animal health products was
worth almost US$18.6 billion in 2006.
