Introduction

Vaccination protects hundreds of millions of animals worldwide from disease and possibly death. Animals, just like humans, suffer from a range of infectious diseases. As veterinary medicine has advanced, prevention of disease has become a priority as healthy food comes from healthy animals. One of the best means of preventing disease is by creating immunity in the animal. This is usually achieved by vaccination.

Not all animals need every vaccine. Some, like clostridial disease prevention, are basically routine, just like childhood vaccination programmes. The vaccination programme chosen for farm animals depends on the management system, the location of the farm and the history of the herd or flock (and whether or not a disease is likely to be encountered). Most farm animals are young, and these animals (just like children) are often more susceptible to infection. So, for example, calves often need to be protected by vaccination against respiratory disease. Some of the diseases that can be prevented are shown below.

5. Fish - Enteric redmouth disease, furunculosis, vibriosis (vibrio anguillarum, vibrio salmonicida and Vibrio viscosus (now named moratella viscosus))

Analysis of Pfizer's Acquisition of Wyeth

Post the acquisition, Pfizer Animal Health is now the world’s leader in the discovery, development, manufacture and sales of veterinary vaccines and medicines for livestock and companion animals.

Relevance to Pfizer Animal Health Business

Fort Dodge Animal Health is one of the divisions of Wyeth, which is a leader in the manufacturing of prescription and over-the-counter vaccines and pharmaceuticals for veterinary medicine as well as livestock.

Reasons for the acquisition

1. Diversified its U.S. portfolio

The following products have been added to Pfizer Animal Health portfolio post acquisition:

• Beef and dairy animal health portfolio - FACTREL®, SYNOVEX®
• Swine market portfolio - SUVAXYN®, SUVAXYN PCV-2
• Poultry Health Portfolio - POULVAC®, MATERNAVAC® IBD-Reo
• Equine health portfolio - WEST NILE INNOVATOR ®, FLU VAC INNOVATOR ®, QUEST®, QUEST PLUS® 
• Canine portfolio - LYMEVAX®

2. Foray into new business areas

• Wyeth has expanded Pfizer's presence in animal health
• Augments in-line and pipeline portfolio in “invest to win” disease areas
• Enhances the scientific, manufacturing and pharmaceutical science capabilities of Pfizer
• Provides the best opportunities for world class, high performing talent in the industry

3. Strengthens Platforms for Improved, Consistent and Stable Earnings Growth

• Pfizer’s CAGR before acquisition (2008-13)= -5.3%
• Wyeth’s CAGR before acquisition (2008-13)= 4.3%
• Combined Pfizer-Wyeth CAGR (2008-13) = 0.9%
• Wyeth contributes a large revenue increment to Pfizer

4. Addresses Revenue Loss from Lipitor patent expiry

• Lipitor accounted for over 28% of Pfizer's sales in 2008
• Lipitor was going to lose US patent exclusivity in 2011, leading to significant revenue losses
• This acquisition makes up for the revenue loss from the exclusivity of Lipitor

Legal Issues due to the acquisition

The complaint charges that the proposed transaction likely would harm competition in each of the relevant markets by reducing the number of suppliers and leaving veterinarians and other animal health product customers with limited options. Without the competition provided by Pfizer and Wyeth in these markets, customers are more likely to see prices rise, according to the complaint. The complaint further alleges that the entry of new competitors in these markets would not be timely, likely, nor sufficient to offset the loss of competition, and that the transaction would increase the likelihood that Pfizer could act on its own or with other companies to raise prices.

Divesture of certain Animal Health Assets of Wyeth to Boehringer Ingelheim

Pfizer divested some of the Fort Dodge Animal Health products it acquired from Wyeth, within 10 days from the acquisition, to Boehringer Ingelheim to settle the anticompetitive effects the Federal Trade Commission believes are likely to result from the transaction in numerous markets for animal health products.

Due to this transaction, the Federal Trade Commission approved that it would not harm consumers in any prescription drug market where the companies currently overlap, reduce incentives to innovate, create intellectual property barriers, or allow Pfizer to engage in anticompetitive marketing.
