Abstract

The pharmaceutical industry discovers, develops, produces, and markets drugs or pharmaceutical drugs for use as medications to be administered (or self-administered) to patients, intending to cure them, vaccinate them, or alleviate the symptoms. Pharmaceutical companies may deal in generic or brand medications and medical devices. They are subject to a variety of laws and regulations that govern the patenting, testing, safety, efficacy, and marketing of drugs. In the pharmaceutical industry, the patent protection of drugs and medicines is accorded particular importance, because drugs and medicines can easily be copied or imitated (by analyzing a pharmaceutical substance) and because of the significant research and development spending and the high risks associated with the development of a new drug. The healthcare industry is also very sensitive and hyper-regulated. The analysis of the business model is a prerequisite for its appraisal. The evaluation depends on the prioritizing identification of the crucial value drivers.
