    Top 25 Pharma & Biopharma

    Welcome to 2020 edition of Contract Pharma’s Top Companies Report. This year’s Top 25 Pharma and Biopharma firms reported pharma revenues of nearly $650 billion based on 2019 sales—a 5% increase compared to the year before.

    Takeda became the star performer of the year when it was thrust into the Top 10 for the first time, driven by its $62 billion Shire acquisition in 2018. The mega deal doubled its pharma revenues, which grew to $30.5 billion in 2019 from $16 billion the year prior.

    At the same time, this report is the swan song for both Celgene and Allergan. In the second largest pharma acquisition of 2019, Botox-maker Allergan was bought out by AbbVie for $63 billion. Celgene became a wholly owned subsidiary of Bristol-Myers Squibb following the completion of its $74 billion acquisition in November.

    Once again, for this year’s report, we partnered with research firm Evaluate, who provided financial and pipeline data information for each of the Top Companies featured. Thanks again to them for crunching the numbers. You can learn more about them at Evaluate.com. This year’s coverage begins on here and we hope you enjoy!
