Our clinical pipeline &
market rationale
We decided to focus on medical R&D, as it becomes a popular investment for top pharma companies
Pharma innovation is increasingly sourced externally, from small companies
Innovation sourced externally appears to be more fruitful…
50
of top 20 blockbusters in the last decade originated from small biotech companies
… resulting to increased investment for R&D deals…
10
invested in external innovation by top pharma companies per year, with a third focused on smaller deals (<$1bn)
… increasing premiums paid for attractive, late-stage assets
60
median deal premiums for clinical / later-stage assets in 2019, highest ever recorded globally
Early R&D assets appear to have better ROI due to lower valuations vs. assets at launch phase
We are prioritizing our cannabinoid R&D pipeline development as there is high potential to achieve an asset sale in the hundreds of millions
