Will Valeant be Buying Us?

Quote




This is silly. They're so over-leveraged after buying so many other companies, its doubtful they have any credit much less cash to actually plunk down and buy Galderma. I see Allergan or someone else maybe, but not Valeant.
 




Do not be so sure, it is their business model after all. Also, i do think it is inevitable the Galderma assets will be up for sale to whomever. There is no way they can have a sustainable business model with the current products meet profit goals and grow for the future and at the same time keep growing both sales and profits in the US. They have a better chance getting a better price for the key RX products if they sell within the next 6 - 12 months. Cetaphil will probably be rolled over to Loreal it fits more with their business model. Or they dramatically downsize and we ride out the storm until they can buy something. But if you are a share holder there are easier ways to get sustainable growth over the next 10 years. The current product mix does not have that kind of growth potential or life cycle and or longevity.
 
















Don't think that Valeant is over extended and can't buy Galderma. They are a Canadian based company which makes their taxes better, they have nearly unlimited borrowing ability (and a internal personal connection to the highest levels of JP Morgan Chase), it makes sense for them and they want to rule the world. I could see Allergan making a run at it too, but they don't have the financial abilities that Valeant has.

Galderma will be sold, it is inevitable. With the lack of products, a pipeline ripe with line extensions and a very overloaded staff its a no brainer. Valeant can come in and pick it up for a good price, layoff a large portion of the employees (both top and bottom) and become very profitable. That is their model and it has been very successful for them. Galderma is the low hanging fruit they've been waiting for to catapult them to the very top of the pharma industry.

Good luck to everyone and for many of you...don't let the door hit you on the ass on the way out (CP, KG, TR, MC, BJ, SS of Denver)

first of all don't over value yourself. Second, it would serve most of you right! you have been a bunch of spoiled babies that have been bitching for years. If they buy you, you will have something to complain about.

I don't wish positive producing sales people any ill will. But for the others I will laugh my ass off if it happens.
 












Let's look at the facts, shall we?

Valeant took a piss on Medicis!

So now it's time for Valeant to pull that crazy mad Cookie Monster (nom nom nom) move on Galderma!!

Get ready to be gobbled up!!!
 








All that I can say is that you better pray that Valeant doesn't buy you. I can't say too much as it might reveal my identity and ruin what I have planned. But, they have ruined many lives. So if it happens, get prepared to start looking for a job immediately!
 








For sale , Sold or not . There are big changes coming . Layoffs , RE ORG whatever you what to call it . Expanding the salesforce was a big mistake , that has been noted . Playing around with rebates , playing around with reps bonus their ability to earn vs another rep , all is a ticking time bomb .

Still , sadly most just sit it their seat waiting for more bad news . A few speak up but shame on the rest of you sheep , you will bring it on yourselves. Reps and DMs do have a voice , but fail to speak anywhere outside the shadows .

Are you happy about how you got paid this year ? The huge difference in rebate card swings from territory to territory . How tiny producing territories producing a third of yours go to inner circle ? How someone can increase their business by a single script and clean up on powerpoints competitions ?

Use your voice while you can .
 




Lets just hope that our executives push for significant severance packages for us. 2-4 weeks is an insult despite that bring prescedented in the industry. Galderma needs to show class one last time and push for 3 month minimums for the families that built it.

95% is done... Lets not kid ourselves
 




They sure aren't going to be buying Galderma, but as of of today, they are happily selling you the rights to Restylane, Dysport, Sculptra, Emervel, and Perlane so that they can get some much needed cash for their last ditch attempt to buy Allergan. Whatever happens with their bid for AGN, at least now Galderma finally has that true A&C "pillar" that they've been talking about for years now.
 




Very True, however, my hope is that we bring over the management, reps and expertise to properly sell and market the new products. The current Galderma Sales and Marketing leadership has no experience with the aesthetic side of the business. So my concern is that we take some great new assets and tie it back to the current and might I add very weak sales and marketing leadership and totally screw this up.

Let's hope for the best on this one. Does show Nestle is in it for the long haul. But please do not let these current bunch of arrogant asses run this thing into the ground.
