Bayer’s strategic review will take into account a potentially tougher outlook for cash flow, its chief executive said Tuesday, following abandoning a trial of the blood thinner Asundexian.
Bayer halted a large late-stage clinical trial of a new anticoagulant last Sunday due to a lack of efficacy, calling into question the pharmaceutical group’s most promising development project and worsening its litigation and litigation woes. of debts.
“Anything that has a negative impact on future cash flow makes the situation a little more tense,” Chairman Bill Anderson said on a conference call with analysts Tuesday.
“The impact of these recent events does not change our strategic options. It just means that some of these conditions are a little more stringent,” he added.
Bill Anderson also said he was considering a spinoff of the division that makes over-the-counter health products and crop protection products for agriculture.
