Industry
Competition
The Company faces competition based on a number of factors, including size, relative expertise and sophistication, speed and costs of identifying and optimizing potential lead compounds and of developing and optimizing chemical processes. The Company competes with the research departments of pharmaceutical companies, biotechnology companies, combinatorial chemistry companies, contract research companies and research and academic institutions. Many of these competitors have greater financial and other resources and more experience in research and development than the Company. Smaller companies may also prove to be significant competitors, particularly through arrangements with large corporate collaborators. The Company believes that the successful recruitment and retention of qualified Ph.D., masters and bachelor level scientists is a key element in achieving its strategic goals. The Company believes that as competitive pressures in the pharmaceutical industry to produce lead compounds increase, the recruitment and retention of chemists will become increasingly competitive. In order to meet this challenge, the Company actively recruits scientists at colleges and universities, through third-party recruitment firms and through contacts of the Company's employees.
Business
Plan
The Company's objective is to be the leading provider of comprehensive outsourced chemistry research and development services to the pharmaceutical and biotechnology industries. Key elements of the Company's business strategy include the following: (i) Expand Service Offerings, (ii) Increase Capacity, (iii) Leverage Customer Relationships, (iv) Expand Customer Base and (v) Leverage Proprietary Technology.
