Annual Report (Form 10-K), fiscal year 1993

Item 1. Business
General
Pfizer Inc. (the "Company") is a diversified, research-based health care company with global operations. The Company discovers, develops, manufactures and sells technology-intensive products in four business segments: Health Care, which includes a broad range of prescription pharmaceuticals, orthopedic implants, medical devices and surgical equipment; Consumer Health Care, which includes a variety of nonprescription drugs and personal care products; Animal Health, which includes animal health products and feed supplements; and Food Science, which includes ingredients for the food and beverage industries. Additionally, the Company's Financial Subsidiaries include a banking operation in Europe and a small captive insurance operation.
Comparative Segment and Geographic Data
Comparative segment and geographic data for the three years ended December 31, 1993 are set forth on pages 35 and 36, and in the Note "Financial Subsidiaries" on pages 41 and 42, of the Company's Annual Report to Shareholders for the fiscal year ended December 31, 1993 and are incorporated herein by reference.
Health Care
The Company's Health Care business is comprised of pharmaceuticals and hospital products. The Company competes with numerous other health care companies in the discovery and development of new, technologically advanced pharmaceutical and hospital products; in seeking use of its products by the medical profession; and in the sale of its product lines to wholesale and retail outlets, public and private hospitals, managed care organizations, government and the medical profession.
Methods of competition in health care vary with the product category. There are a significant number of innovative companies in the field. A critical factor in most markets in which the Company competes is the ability to offer technological advances over competitive products. The productivity of scientific discovery and clinical development efforts is central to long-term operational success since there are many companies that specialize in marketing products that no longer have patent or regulatory protection. Other important factors in these markets include the ability to transfer knowledge of technological advances to the medical community, product quality, prompt delivery and price.
The United States pharmaceutical marketplace has in recent years experienced intensified price competition, brought about by a range of market forces, including: increased generic competition, growth of managed care organizations, and legislation requiring pharmaceutical companies to provide rebates and discounts to government purchasers. Similar competitive forces, in varying degrees, have also been present in various other countries in which the Company operates.
Prescription pharmaceutical and hospital products, both in the United States and abroad, are promoted directly to the medical profession. Pharmaceutical products are distributed in large part to wholesale and retail outlets, hospitals, clinics, and managed care organizations. Hospital products are generally sold directly to medical institutions and, in some cases, through distributors and surgical supply dealers.
Pharmaceuticals
The Company's worldwide pharmaceutical products are comprised primarily of drugs which fall into the following major therapeutic classes: cardiovascular agents, anti-infectives, anti-inflammatories, central nervous system agents and anti-diabetes agents. In 1993, pharmaceuticals made up 69% of the Company's consolidated net sales, an increase from 63% in 1992 and 54% in 1991. Increases in both United States and international pharmaceutical revenues in 1993 were principally the result of strong sales of recently introduced products, including Procardia XL (nifedipine GITS), Norvasc (amlodipine besylate), Cardura (doxazosin), Diflucan (fluconazole), Zithromax (azithromycin), and Zoloft (sertraline).
Cardiovascular products are the Company's largest therapeutic product line accounting for 27% of the Company's consolidated 1993 net sales, an increase from 23% in 1992 and 18% in 1991. These products realized sales growth of 22% in 1993, including an 11% increase in sales of Procardia XL, a once-a-day calcium channel blocker for hypertension and angina, as well as the continuing rollout of Norvasc, an intrinsically once-a-day calcium channel blocker for hypertension and angina and Cardura, an alpha blocker for hypertension. U.S. cardiovascular sales grew 18% in 1993 and international sales of cardiovascular agents rose 34%.
Diflucan, an antifungal agent indicated for use in a variety of fungal infections including certain types which afflict AIDS and immunosuppressed cancer patients, and Zithromax, an oral antibiotic, were the largest products in the anti-infective class in terms of 1993 growth in net sales. Total anti-infective sales accounted for 22% of the Company's consolidated 1993 net sales, an increase from 20% and 18% in 1992 and 1991, respectively.
Worldwide sales of anti-inflammatories decreased to 5% of the Company's consolidated 1993 net sales. This compares to 9% in 1992 and 10% in 1991. This decline resulted primarily from the availability of generic versions of Feldene (piroxicam) in the United States since August 1992 and new competitive brand name products.
The Company's central nervous system agents include Zoloft, an anti-depressant introduced in the U.S. in 1992. Central nervous system agents accounted for less than 10% of the Company's consolidated 1993 net sales.
The Company's anti-diabetes agents, including Glucotrol (glipizide), accounted for less than 10% of the Company's consolidated 1993 net sales.
The Company's new product portfolio continues to undergo review by various regulatory agencies. The Company's products listed below are undergoing regulatory review by the United States Food and Drug Administration ("FDA") for the indications listed.
Product Indication(s) ------- ------------- Cardura Benign prostatic hyperplasia Cetirizine (launched in Canada in 1991 under the name Reactine) Low-sedating antihistamine; Pediatric Diflucan Vaginal candidiasis; Pediatric Enable (tenidap) (known as Enablex outside the United States) Osteo- and rheumatoid arthritis Glucotrol XL (glipizide GITS) Sustained-release antidiabetic Unasyn Injectable antibiotic-pediatric Zithromax Oral antibiotic-pediatric Zoloft Obsessive-compulsive disorder
In addition, the Company has marketing rights in the United States and Japan to XOMA Corporation, Inc.'s E5, a monoclonal antibody for the treatment of gram negative sepsis, which is undergoing FDA regulatory review.
To date, Diflucan has been launched in 60 countries and regulatory approvals have been obtained in 18 additional countries. Norvasc has been launched in 55 countries and approvals have been obtained in 25 additional countries. Cardura has been launched in 21 countries and approvals have been obtained in 35 additional countries. Zithromax has been launched in 19 countries and approvals have been obtained in 17 additional countries. Zoloft has been launched in 14 countries and approvals have been obtained in 9 additional countries.
Hospital Products
Hospital Products Group consists of two divisions - Howmedica and Medical Devices. Howmedica manufactures and markets orthopedic implants. Medical Devices consists of three core businesses - Valleylab, Schneider, and American Medical Systems, and two smaller businesses - Infusaid/Strato and Biomedical Sensors.
Howmedica's reconstructive hip, knee and bone cement products are used to replace joints which have deteriorated as a result of disease or injury. Major product lines are P.C.A. Hips, ABG Hips, Duracon Knee, and Simplex Bone Cement. Howmedica's trauma products are used by orthopedic surgeons to aid in trauma surgery and in setting fractures, and include the Gamma Nail, Luhr System and Alta System.
Schneider, an international leader in angioplasty catheters, also markets a peripheral stent product line. Schneider, which is active in the United States and Europe, acquired a distribution company in Japan with 1993 being the first full year of Schneider's direct operation in that country. Valleylab is a worldwide leader in electrosurgical devices.
Valleylab's continued investment in product lines for minimally invasive surgery represents a significant opportunity for future growth. American Medical Systems is a leader in impotence and incontinence devices. Its major product development activities in 1993 were focused on trends towards minimally invasive surgery.
Plans are being implemented to take advantage of manufacturing, marketing and distribution synergies between Strato Medical Corporation, a supplier of implantable vascular access ports, and Infusaid, an innovator in implantable infusion pumps. The combined operation will focus on advanced drug delivery systems. In 1993, Biomedical Sensors launched the Paratrend 7 intravascular continuous blood gas monitoring system, incorporating both electrochemical and fiber-optic technology. The continuous monitoring offered by the Paratrend 7 reduces the time to receive vital information, allowing pro-active diagnosis and therapy.
Consumer Health Care
The Company's Consumer Health Care products include proprietary health items, baby care products and toiletries, Plax pre-brushing dental rinse, and a number of products sold only in selected international markets, including Vanart hair care products in Mexico and the TCP line of antiseptic and germicidal products marketed primarily in the United Kingdom.
Among the better-known brands manufactured and marketed by Consumer Health Care are Visine (tetrahydrozoline HCl) eyedrops, Ben-Gay analgesic creams, Desitin diaper rash ointments, Unisom (doxylamine succinate) sleep aids, Plax pre-brushing dental rinse, Rid anti-lice products and Barbasol shave creams and gels. In 1993, Consumer Health Care introduced Unisom Sleep Gels, soft liquid-filled gels with a maximum-strength sleep aid formula, Daily Care Desitin for the prevention of diaper rash, and a new formulation of Rid. Advanced Formula Plax was introduced in early 1994.
Many other companies, large and small, manufacture and sell one or more similar consumer products. The Company is a significant competitor in this extensive market, and its principal methods of competition include product innovation and quality, customer satisfaction, broad distribution capabilities, advertising and promotion, and price. In general, the winning and retention of consumer acceptance of the Company's consumer products involve heavy expenditure for advertising, promotion, and marketing.
Animal Health
The Company's Animal Health operations include the discovery, development, manufacture and sale of animal health products and feed supplements. Major products include: veterinary products such as Terramycin LA-200 (oxytetracycline) (marketed as TM/LA outside of North America), a broad-spectrum injectable antibiotic; the Banminth (pyrantel tartrate), Nemex (pyrantel pamoate) and Paratect (morantel tartrate) anthelmintics; Mecadox (carbadox), an antibacterial for pigs; and Terramycin (oxytetracycline), a broad-spectrum antibiotic used for a variety of animal diseases. The Company's animal health business functions on a worldwide basis giving the segment a global approach to marketing and enabling it to effectively coordinate the launches of three animal health products: Advocin (danofloxacin), Dectomax (doramectin), and Aviax (semduramicin). Advocin, a broad-spectrum, third generation quinolone antibacterial used to control respiratory and other diseases in cattle, swine, and poultry has been launched in many Latin American, Asian, and African countries. Dectomax, a novel, second-generation avermectin with broad-spectrum activity against internal and external parasites in a number of animal species has been launched in Brazil, Argentina, and South Africa. Aviax, a potent, broad-spectrum ionophore anticoccidial, used to prevent coccidiosis in poultry is under regulatory review in many countries, with approvals already received in a number of markets.
Animal health and nutrition products are sold through drug wholesalers, distributors, retail outlets and directly to users, including feed manufacturers, animal producers and veterinarians.
A substantial number of other companies manufacture and sell one or more similar products for animal health use. There are hundreds of producers of animal health products throughout the world. The Company is a significant manufacturer of some of the products, such as injectable antibiotics, anthelmintics and anticoccidial products for the food animal market segments. With respect to the smaller pet segment, and other products for the food animal segments, the Company has a less significant market position.
Methods of competition with respect to animal health and feed supplement products vary somewhat but include product innovation, service, price, quality and effective transfer of technological advances to the market through advertising and promotion.
Food Science
The Food Science Group serves the global food processing industry with innovative food ingredients. Food Science continues to develop a strategic position of global leadership within the food ingredients business through the discovery and introduction of innovative food ingredients, linked with the added features of service and know-how for growth into value-added food ingredients systems. This strategic focus seeks to enable Food Science customers to provide an appealing array of healthy and tasteful foods, and, where possible, to provide a linkage to the Company's healthcare business. The specialty ingredients growth has been led by lite ingredients, including Litesse (polydextrose); dairy ingredients, featuring Chy-Max (chymosin); brewery ingredients; and food protectants. Appeal, taste, freshness and nutritional balance are quality parameters served by Food Science's ingredients and technology. Internal research and development remain key strengths and differentiate Food Science from many of its competitors. Products currently under development include fat extenders, intense sweeteners, flavors, food protectants and high temperature fat substitutes.
The Food Science business competes with other organizations for sales of most of their ingredients as well as substitute products. Some of these organizations produce and sell products that are either identical to, or serve the same function as, ingredients marketed by Food Science. The number of competitors varies with each particular ingredient. Methods of competition vary by ingredient but include innovation and quality, prompt delivery, ability to meet exacting specifications, technical service and cost.
Financial Subsidiaries
In 1992, the Company completed the transfer of its international banking operations from Puerto Rico to the Republic of Ireland. This subsidiary, Pfizer International Bank Europe (PIBE), operates under a full banking license from the Central Bank of Ireland. This reorganization and transfer was made in anticipation of the integration and unification of the European Union's financial markets. PIBE makes loans and accepts deposits in U.S. dollars in international markets and is an active Euromarket lender with a portfolio of loans, floating rate notes and Euronotes of high quality corporates and sovereigns. Loans are made primarily on a short-and medium-term basis, with floating interest rates.
The Company's insurance operation, The Kodiak Company Limited, reinsures certain assets, inland transport and marine cargo of Pfizer subsidiaries.
International Operations
The Company has significant operations outside the United States that, in general, parallel its United States businesses either through direct operations or through distributors. The Company's international businesses are subject, in varying degrees, to a number of risks inherent in carrying on business in certain countries outside the United States, including possible nationalization, expropriation and other restrictive government actions such as capital regulations. In addition, changes in the values of currencies take place from time to time and can be either favorable or unfavorable to the net income and net assets of subsidiaries operating outside the United States. It is impossible to predict future changes in foreign exchange values or the effect they will have on the Company. The Company actively engages in hedging its current transactional exposures against the impact of unfavorable foreign exchange rate movements. These hedging programs are routinely implemented by the Company's foreign operating units. In addition, from time to time, hedging programs designed to protect selected balance sheet positions and future cash flow exposures are conducted, generally by the Company's headquarters personnel.
Tax Matters
For tax years beginning after December 31, 1993, the Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act of 1993 reduced by 40% the benefits accruing to the Company under Section 936 of the Internal Revenue Code (the "Puerto Rico tax credit"). Such tax benefits will decline an additional 5% per year through 1998. For tax years beginning after December 31, 1997, the Puerto Rico tax credit benefit will be fixed at 40% of the current level.
In 1989, the Internal Revenue Service issued Notice 89-21 which deals, in part, with the tax accounting treatment of lump sum payments and assignments with respect to certain financial transactions which are similar to transactions entered into by the Company, and reported for tax purposes prior to the date of the Notice. If the Internal Revenue Service were to be successful in applying the Notice to these prior Company transactions, certain amounts which the Company believes are taxable only when and if repatriated to the United States would be required to be included in U.S. taxable income for the years 1988 through 1992. At this time, the Company continues to believe that its tax accounting treatment for the transactions in question was proper.
The Company has satisfactorily resolved all issues with the Internal Revenue Service for the years through 1986. The years 1987 through 1989 are currently under audit by the Internal Revenue Service. The Company believes that its accrued tax liabilities are adequate to cover its U.S. and foreign tax contingencies for all open years.
Patents and Research
The Company owns or is licensed under a number of patents relating to its products and manufacturing processes which, in the aggregate, are believed to be of material importance in its business. Based on current product sales, and in view of the vigorous competition with products sold by others, the Company does not consider any single patent or related group of patents to be significant in relation to the enterprise as a whole, except for the Procardia XL, Diflucan, Zoloft and Norvasc patents. Procardia XL is a once-a-day formulation of the Company's calcium channel blocker, Procardia (nifedipine), which is administered for the treatment of angina and hypertension. Procardia XL employs a novel drug delivery system developed and patented by Alza Corporation. The Company holds an exclusive license to use this delivery system with nifedipine until 2003. The Company holds patents relating to Diflucan, Zoloft, and Norvasc.
The Company spent approximately $974 million in 1993, $863 million in 1992, and $757 million in 1991 on Company-sponsored research and development throughout the world. In 1994, the Company plans to spend in excess of $1.1 billion on research and development. In 1992, the Company also established Pfizer Research and Development Company (PRDCO) in Ireland with an initial capitalization of approximately $1 billion to engage in research and development through a cost-sharing arrangement with Pfizer Ltd. (a Pfizer U.K. subsidiary) in exchange for a portion of property rights relating to the development of specific products.
Competition in research, involving the development of new products and processes and the improvement of existing products and processes, is particularly significant and results from time to time in product and process obsolescence. The development of new and improved products is important to the Company's success in all areas of its business.
Employees
Approximately 40,500 persons are employed by the Company throughout the world as follows: United States, 15,600; Europe, 10,800; Asia, 7,800; Canada/Latin America, 4,300; and Africa/Middle East, 2,000. The Company has a good relationship with its employees.
Regulation
Most of the Company's businesses are subject to varying degrees of governmental regulation in the countries in which operations are conducted. Such regulation in the United States involves a more complex approval process than in many other countries and therefore, often results in later marketing clearances and a corresponding increase in the expense of introducing new products in the United States. In many international markets, prices of pharmaceuticals are controlled by the government.
In 1990, Congress passed the Safe Medical Devices Act. The law contains numerous provisions obligating medical device firms to submit additional information to the U.S. FDA and increased the FDA's powers to investigate and sanction companies for violative practices. To date, the impact of this legislation has been manifested most visibly in delays in processing marketing licenses known as 510 (k) premarket notifications and product marketing applications ("PMAs") and in utilization of the new civil monetary penalties provision. The Company's Hospital Products Group is actively implementing strategies to maintain compliance with the requirements and the burdens that arise due to these provisions.
The 1990 Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act requires pharmaceutical companies to extend rebates to state Medicaid agencies based on each state's reimbursement of pharmaceutical products under the Medicaid program. The Veterans Health Care Act, passed in 1992, requires manufacturers to provide discounts on purchases of pharmaceutical products by the Department of Veterans Affairs (DVA) and by certain entities funded by the Public Health Service. The Company's net sales in 1993 were reduced by Medicaid rebates and rebates under related state programs which amounted to $70 million. In addition, in 1993, Pfizer provided $51 million in discounts to the federal government, primarily to the DVA and the Department of Defense, for drugs purchased in accordance with the Veterans Health Care Act.
In 1990, the FDA announced a call for data for ingredients contained in products bearing anti-plaque and related claims. The call for data is part of the FDA's ongoing review, begun in 1972, of over-the-counter drug products. The FDA is taking this administrative approach to evaluate the safety and efficacy of anti-plaque products and has not proceeded further with regard to 1989 regulatory letters it issued to the Company and several other manufacturers of products bearing anti-plaque claims. The Company submitted its response to the call for data relating to Plax, its pre-brushing dental rinse, on June 17, 1991. This filing, as well as filings of other manufacturers, is still under review, and is currently being considered by an FDA Advisory Panel.
In June 1992, the Generic Drug Enforcement Act was passed into law. The legislation provides for mandatory and permissive debarment of companies convicted of crimes related to abbreviated new drug applications and of individuals convicted of crimes related to development or approval of any drug product. Debarment is a prohibition against the company or individual from submitting, assisting in the submission or providing services for someone who has an approved or pending drug application. The law is reflective of a continuing trend in Congress to enhance FDA's enforcement powers over the entire regulated industry and stiffen penalties for violations of the Food, Drug and Cosmetic Act. To date, the FDA has utilized the provision to debar more than a dozen individuals.
In 1992, the Prescription Drug User Fee Act was also signed into law. It imposes fees for: a) certain human drug and biologic product applications, b) certain products listed under provisions of the Food, Drug and Cosmetic Act, and c) establishments in which prescription drugs in final dosage form are manufactured. The fees, which will increase over a five year period and additionally are subject to inflation adjustments, are intended to be dedicated to the review process for human drug applications. The legislative goals, expressed in companion correspondence, are to reduce the backlog of original and supplemental product applications and expedite the review of new applications. User fees were collected on specified applications filed after September 1, 1992. The financial impact of these fees on the Company was not material in 1993, while the Company expects to benefit from expedited review of its applications.
In Western Europe, the 12 countries currently comprising the European Union (formerly known as the European Community), are continuing the process of implementing directives, standards and regulatory control mechanisms designed to further harmonize requirements for the Union-wide approval and marketing of drugs and medical devices. These changes, which are not expected to be in full operation before the mid-1990s, are likely to have positive effects upon the Company's businesses. However, until the common requirements are implemented and the Company has some experience with them in practice, it will be impossible to determine the net impact on the Company. Also, by that time, the scope of these measures may have extended to other European countries whose applications to join the European Union are currently pending.
During 1993, Congress began debate on reform of the U.S. health care system. Numerous health care reform bills have been introduced, including the Administration's "Health Security Act". The Health Security Act includes provisions that would form an Advisory Council on Breakthrough Drugs, require rebates on pharmaceuticals reimbursed under the Medicare program, and authorize the Secretary of Health and Human Services to exclude from coverage under Medicare, or require prior authorization for, drugs the Secretary considers to be excessively priced. While these provisions could have an adverse impact on the Company's pharmaceutical business in the United States, other bills that have been introduced do not contain such provisions. It is uncertain whether legislation will be enacted in 1994 or, if legislation is enacted, whether it will have a significant adverse effect on the Company.
Raw Materials and Energy
Raw materials essential to the business of the Company and its subsidiaries are generally obtainable from multiple sources. The Company did not experience any significant restrictions on availability of raw materials or supplies during the last year, and none is expected in 1994. Energy was available to the Company in sufficient quantities to meet Company requirements and this condition is expected to continue in 1994.
Environment
Certain of the Company's operations are affected by Federal, State and local laws and regulations relating to environmental quality. The Company has made and intends to continue to make the necessary expenditures for environmental protection. Compliance with such laws and regulations is not expected to have a material adverse effect on the financial position, earnings or competitive position of the Company and its subsidiaries.

These properties are maintained in good operating condition and the manufacturing facilities have capacities considered adequate to meet the Company's needs.
Item 3.

Item 3. Legal Proceedings
The Company is involved in a number of claims and litigations, including product liability claims and litigations considered normal in the nature of its businesses. These include suits involving various pharmaceutical and hospital products that allege either reaction to or injury from use of the product.
As previously disclosed, numerous claims have been brought against the Company and Shiley Incorporated, a wholly owned subsidiary, alleging either personal injury from fracture of 60(degree) or 70(degree) Shiley Convexo-Concave (C/C) heart valves, or anxiety that properly functioning implanted valves might fracture in the future, or, in a few cases, personal injury from a prophylactic replacement of a functioning valve.
The Company believes that claims based on properly functioning implanted valves seeking recovery for alleged anxiety that the valves might fracture in the future do not state a cause of action and, accordingly, the Company has vigorously defended these cases. As of January 21, 1994, 59 cases have either been dismissed on motions to dismiss or for summary judgment, or have been voluntarily withdrawn by the plaintiffs. In the case of Kahn v. Shiley Incorporated and Pfizer Inc., however, the California Court of Appeal in 1990 held invalid all of the plaintiff's product liability claims relating to concerns with respect to plaintiff's properly functioning C/C heart valve, but permitted plaintiff to pursue claims based on deceit, which the trial court has held includes negligent and fraudulent misrepresentations.
Cases involving approximately 200 implantees (and spouses of some of them) were consolidated for certain pretrial purposes under the caption of the Kahn case pending in the Superior Court, Orange County, California. More than 100 of these were settled in early 1993. Trial of the first of the remaining cases, of six selected for trial, began July 29, 1993. After trial, but before verdict, most of the remaining cases as well as several unfiled claims, involving approximately 250 implantees, were settled.
In an attempt to resolve all claims alleging anxiety that properly functioning valves might fracture in the future, the Company entered into a settlement agreement in January 1992 in Bowling v. Shiley et al., a case brought in the United States District Court for the Southern District of Ohio that establishes a worldwide settlement class of people with C/C heart valves and their spouses, except those who elect to exclude themselves. The settlement provides for a Consultation Fund of $90 to $140 million (depending on the number of claims filed) from which valve recipients who make claims will receive payments that are intended to cover their cost of consultation with cardiologists or other health care providers with respect to their valves. The settlement agreement establishes a second fund of at least $75 million to support C/C valve-related research, including the development of techniques to identify valve recipients who may have significant risk of fracture, and to cover the unreimbursed medical expenses that valve recipients may incur for certain procedures related to the valves. The Company's obligation as to coverage of these unreimbursed medical expenses is not subject to any dollar limitation. Following a hearing on the fairness of the settlement, it was approved by the court on August 19, 1992. An appeal of the court's approval of the settlement was dismissed on December 20, 1993 by the United States Court of Appeals for the Sixth Circuit. A motion for rehearing en banc was denied on March 8, 1994. It is expected that most of the costs arising from the Bowling class
settlement will be covered by insurance and the proceeds of the sale of certain product lines of the Shiley businesses in 1992.
Of approximately 900 implantees (and spouses of some of them) who opted out of the Bowling settlement class, 12 currently have cases or claims pending in the Kahn consolidation in California; 4 have cases or claims pending outside of California; approximately 675 whose claims were included in the Kahn consolidation have been settled; approximately 100 have never filed a case or claim; and approximately 10 have working valve cases pending.
Several claims relating to elective reoperations of valve recipients are currently pending. Some of these claims relate to elective reoperations covered by the Bowling class settlement described above, and, therefore, the claimants are entitled to certain benefits in accordance with the settlement. Such claimants, if they irrevocably waive all of the benefits of the settlement, may pursue separate litigation to recover damages in spite of the class settlement. The Company is defending these claims.
Generally, the plaintiffs in all of the pending heart valve litigations discussed above seek money damages. Based on the experience of the Company in defending these claims to date, including available insurance and reserves, the Company is of the opinion that these actions should not have a material adverse effect on the financial position or the results of operations of the Company.
On September 30, 1993, Dairyland Insurance Co., a carrier providing excess liability coverage ("excess carrier") in the early 1980s, commenced an action in the California Superior Court in Orange County, seeking a declaratory judgment that it was not obligated to provide insurance coverage for Shiley heart valve liability claims. On October 8, 1993, Pfizer filed cross-complaints against Dairyland and filed third-party complaints against 73 other excess carriers who sold excess liability policies covering periods from 1978 to 1985, seeking damages and declaratory judgments that they are obligated to pay for defense and indemnity to the extent not paid by other carriers.
The Company's operations are subject to federal, state, and local environmental laws and regulations. Under the Comprehensive Environmental Response Compensation and Liability Act of 1980, as amended ("CERCLA" or Superfund"), the Company has been designated as a potentially responsible party by the United States Environmental Protection Agency with respect to certain waste sites with which the Company may have had direct or indirect involvement. Similar designations have been made by some state environmental agencies under applicable state superfund laws. Such designations are made regardless of the extent of the Company's involvement. There are also claims that the Company is a potentially responsible party or participant with respect to several waste sites in Canada. Such claims have been made by the filing of a complaint, the issuance of an administrative directive or order, or the issuance of a notice or demand letter. These claims are in various stages of administrative or judicial proceedings. They include demands for recovery of past governmental costs and for future investigative or remedial actions. In many cases, the dollar amount of the claim is not specified. In most cases, claims have been asserted against a number of other entities for the same recovery or other relief as was asserted against the Company. The Company is currently participating in remedial action at a number of sites under federal, state and local laws.
To the extent possible with the limited amount of information available at this time, the Company has evaluated its responsibility for costs and related liability with respect to the above sites and is of the opinion that the Company's liability with respect to these sites should not have a material adverse effect on the financial position or the results of operations of the Company. In arriving at this conclusion, the Company has considered, among other things, the payments that have been made with respect to the sites in the past; the factors, such as volume and relative toxicity, ordinarily applied to allocate defense and remedial costs at such sites; the probable costs to be paid by the other potentially responsible parties; total projected remedial costs for a site, if known; existing technology; and the currently enacted laws and regulations. The Company anticipates that a portion of these costs and related liability will be covered by available insurance.
The Company agreed to a consent order issued by the State of Connecticut's Department of Environmental Protection on January 28, 1994 in connection with the Company's operation of its pharmaceutical research and production facilities in Groton, Connecticut. The consent order, pursuant to which the Company agreed to pay a civil penalty of $150,000, resolves all matters raised in an administrative action brought by the agency against the Company. The action had alleged certain violations of state environmental regulations which incorporate provisions of the federal Resource Conservation and Recovery Act.
Through the early 1970s, Pfizer (Minerals Division) and Quigley Company, Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary, sold a minimal amount of one construction product and several refractory products containing some asbestos. These
sales were discontinued thereafter. Although these sales represented a minor market share, the Company has been named as one of a number of defendants in numerous lawsuits. These actions, and actions related to the Company's sale of talc products in the past, claim personal injury resulting from exposure to asbestos-containing products, and nearly all seek general and punitive damages. In these actions, the Company or Quigley is typically one of a number of defendants, and both are members of the Center for Claims Resolution (the "CCR"), a joint defense organization that is defending these claims. The Company and Quigley are responsible for varying percentages of defense and liability payments for all members of the CCR. Prior to September 1990, the cases involving talc products were defended by the CCR, but the Company is now overseeing its own defense of these actions. A number of cases alleging property damage from asbestos-containing products installed in buildings have also been brought against Pfizer.
On January 15, 1993, a class action complaint and settlement agreement were filed in the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Pennsylvania involving all personal injury claims by persons who have been exposed to asbestos-containing products but who have not yet filed a personal injury action against the twenty members of the CCR. The settlement agreement establishes a claims-processing mechanism that will provide historic settlement values upon proof of impaired medical condition as well as claims-processing rates over ten years. In addition, the shares allocated to the CCR members eliminate joint and several liability. The settlement is subject to the court's determination that the settlement is fair and reasonable.
Concurrently with the filing of the future claims class action, the CCR settled approximately 16,360 personal injury cases on behalf of Pfizer and Quigley, leaving approximately 22,900 cases pending (15,400 against Quigley and 7,500 against Pfizer). It is the CCR's intention to settle remaining and opt-out cases and claims on a similar basis to past settlements.
Costs incurred by the Company in defending the asbestos personal injury claims and the property damage claims, as well as settlements and damage awards in connection therewith, are largely insured against under policies issued by several primary insurance carriers and a number of excess carriers. The Company believes that its costs incurred in defending and ultimately disposing of the asbestos personal injury claims, as well as the property damage claims, will be largely covered by insurance policies issued by carriers that have agreed to provide coverage, subject to deductibles, exclusions, retentions and policy limits. In connection with the future claims settlement, the defendants have commenced a third-party action against their respective excess insurance carriers that have not agreed to provide coverage seeking a declaratory judgment that (a) the future claims settlement is fair and reasonable as to the carriers; (b) the carriers had adequate notice of the future claims class settlement; and (c) the carriers are obligated to provide coverage for asbestos personal injury claims. Based on the Company's experience in defending the claims to date and the amount of insurance coverage available, the Company is of the opinion that these actions should not ultimately have a material adverse effect on the financial position or the results of operations of the Company.
In connection with the divestiture of Minerals Technologies Inc. (MTI), to which the net assets of the Pfizer Minerals and the Quigley businesses were transferred, Pfizer and Quigley agreed to indemnify MTI against any liability with respect to products manufactured and sold prior to October 30, 1992, as well as against liability for certain environmental matters.
The Company has been named, together with numerous other manufacturers of prescription drugs and certain companies which distribute prescription pharmaceuticals, in at least fifty-one lawsuits (the majority of which are purported to be class actions) in the United States District Courts in Illinois, Pennsylvania, California, Texas, Minnesota and New York, as well as six lawsuits in California state courts, all brought by certain retail pharmacy companies. These cases allege, in essence, that the defendant drug manufacturers have violated the Sherman Act in that they have unlawfully agreed with each other (and, as alleged in some cases, with wholesalers) not to extend to retail pharmacy companies the same discounts which they allege were extended to managed care companies, mail order pharmacies and other institutional purchasers. Certain of the cases also allege violations of the Robinson-Patman Act in that the manufacturers allegedly have unlawfully discriminated against retail pharmacy companies by not extending to them such discounts. It is anticipated that additional cases may be filed. On February 4, 1994, 46 federal suits were transferred to the United States District Court for the Northern District of Illinois for coordinated pretrial preceedings. The remaining federal suits are expected to be transferred there as well. The Company believes these cases are without merit and will vigorously defend them.
FDA administrative proceedings relating to Plax are pending, principally an industry-wide call for data on all anti-plaque products by the FDA. The call for data notice specified that products that have been marketed for a material time and to a material extent may remain on the market pending FDA review of the data, provided the manufacturer has a good faith belief that the product is generally recognized as safe and effective and is not misbranded. The Company believes that Plax satisfied these requirements and prepared a response to the FDA's request, which was filed on June 17, 1991. This filing, as well as the filings of other manufacturers, is still under review and is currently being considered by an FDA Advisory Committee.
A consolidated class action on behalf of persons who allegedly purchased Pfizer common stock during the March 24, 1989 through February 26, 1990 period is pending in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York. This lawsuit, which commenced on July 13, 1990, alleges that the Company and certain officers and former directors and officers violated federal securities law by failing to disclose potential liability arising out of personal injury suits involving Shiley heart valves and seeks damages in an unspecified amount. The defendants in this action believe that the suit is without merit and are vigorously defending it. A derivative action commenced on April 2, 1990 against certain directors and officers and former directors and officers alleging breaches of fiduciary duty and other common law violations in connection with the manufacture and distribution of Shiley heart valves is pending in the Superior Court, Orange County, California. The complaint seeks, among other forms of relief, damages in an unspecified amount. The defendants in the action believe that the suit is without merit and are vigorously defending it.
On January 28, 1993, a purported class action entitled Kearse v. Pfizer Inc. and Howmedica Inc. was commenced in the United States District Court for the Northern District of Ohio. Howmedica Inc. ("Howmedica") is a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company. The action sought monetary and injunctive relief, including medical monitoring, on behalf of patients implanted with the Howmedica P.C.A. one-piece acetabular hip component, which was manufactured by Howmedica from 1983 to 1990. The complaint alleged that the prostheses were defectively designed and manufactured and posed undisclosed risks to implantees. On August 3, 1993, a virtually identical purported class action, Bradshaw/Davids v. Pfizer Inc. and Howmedica Inc., was brought and the Kearse case was subsequently voluntarily dismissed. The Company believes that the suit is without merit and is vigorously defending it.
