Impax Laboratories is a technology-based specialty pharmaceutical company utilizing our controlled-release and other in-house development and formulation expertise. In the generic pharmaceuticals market, we are primarily focusing our efforts on selected controlled-release generic versions of brand name pharmaceuticals. We are also developing other generic pharmaceuticals that we believe present one or more competitive barriers to entry, such as difficulty sourcing raw materials, complex formulation or development characteristics, or special handling requirements.
In the brand name pharmaceuticals market, we are developing products for the treatment of central nervous system, or CNS disorders. Our initial brand name product portfolio consists of development–stage projects to which we are applying formulation and development expertise to develop differentiated, modified, or controlled-release versions of currently marketed drug substances. We intend to expand our brand name products portfolio primarily through internal development and, in addition, through licensing and acquisition.
