CNBC just did a review. Noted that it was the 3rd European merger in a few months (HOE/RP and Sanofi/Synthelabo happened last month). Hemant Shah indicated that both companies were research driven and highly focused. Astra was losing patent protection and the new company would have $13 Billion in sales in 1999 treating cancer, ulcers, and respiratory problems. Shah indicated more mergers were inevitable because that was the only way that $100-$200 Billion companies could generate 20-30% growth rates. Large US companies not likely to merge were said to be PFE, WRK, and WLA.
