Hard to resist

Article Abstract:

A number of UK biotechnology companies involved in developing drugs have performed well in 1995. They include British Biotech which saw a rise in its share price following encouraging reports of an anti-cancer product. Oxford Molecular and Cortecs have also performed well, as has Chiroscience. Diagnostics companies have performed less consistently with Enviromed seeing a fall in its share price, and Drew Scientific seeing a share price rise but still below its placing price in May 1993.

Pharmaceuticals: catch the merger wave

Article Abstract:

Sandoz and Ciba have agreed to a merger which could have an impact on the pharmaceutical industry as a whole. The merger creates the second biggest drugs company world wide and large companies have a number of advantages in the industry. They have more power to buy technology from biotechnology firms, and enhanced purchasing power which helps at a time of price competition. UK pharmaceutical companies may follow this course, and analysts are assessing which companies will merge.
