For Biotech companies at clinical stages (Phase I – III), we help with alignment of trial design with commercial goals and preparation for out-licensing, fundraising or partnering.
For companies planning to launch an asset, we enhance their expertise by providing support and insight from our global network of market access and pricing specialists.
How we work with you
We work as an outsourced partner, which means we can provide cost-effective solutions and flexible payment models, that can be scaled up and down over time:
Your Core FingerPost Team typically stays the same for every project relating to the asset, preserving knowledge and learnings.
Our experienced advisors remain involved, from proposal through to project completion.
Our carefully selected, specialist experts and partners are engaged when further capabilities are required.
We strive to negotiate the lowest possible prices for data services, operational expenses and other resources.
Working with academic institutions, investors and company stakeholders, we help promote awareness of the need to incorporate market access and pricing research into commercial strategy from early clinical development onwards.
We focus on long-term partnerships, helping clients grow their capital with confidence and clarity.
Market Size Assessment
Precise market sizing is vital for demonstrating the true commercial opportunity to potential acquirers / investors.
Example deliverables: Comprehensive market sizing report with detailed methodology and assumptions, visual summaries and detailed data tables suitable for incorporation into investor/acquisition presentations.
Financial Opportunity Assessment
Robust financial modelling is essential to demonstrate the economic value of assets to potential investors/acquirers, providing credible revenue projections and valuation parameters that will support premium acquisition discussions and highlight the commercial potential.
Example deliverables: Revenue forecast modelling, NPV analysis development, return on investment analysis, transaction comparables analysis, comprehensive revenue forecast models, detailed analysis of comparable transactions and benchmark valuation ranges, economically justifiable price modelling.
Competitive Landscape Analysis
A sophisticated understanding of the competitive landscape is critical for identifying defensible points of differentiation and for positioning assets optimally for investment/acquisition.
Robust pricing analysis demonstrates the revenue potential of assets to investors/acquirers while identifying the optimal value-based pricing strategy. This work will establish clear price points that maximise value while ensuring market access, a critical consideration for valuation.
Example deliverables: Pricing benchmark analysis, payer value perception research, comprehensive pricing strategy report, synthesis of payer interviews with verbatim feedback on value perception.
