LONDON – The patent cliff is expected to erase around USD 65 billion in sales up to 2019 as some of the best-selling drugs face the loss of patent exclusivity. The drug manufacturers that are set to be badly beaten will include Otsuka, GSK, Eli Lilly, and AstraZeneca. Otsuka's atypical antipsychotic ABILIFY (aripiprazole) that it co-markets with Bristol-Myers Squibb is poised to lose USD 6.2 billion by end-2019 due to fierce generic competition. Likewise, GlaxoSmithKline’s Advair will see its sales skyrocket by USD 4.8 billion during the same period.

The combined peer group revenue and average operating profit margin remained unchanged as of 2013 in comparison with 2012. Revenue from the peer group came in slightly down by -0.2% to USD 718.7 billion. The average operating margin of the peer group was stable at 21.5%; this was, however, lower by 90 basis points from the year 2011. On the clinical front, R&D expenditure grew by USD 800 million to USD 111.9 billion in 2013, a hike of 0.7%.
