The industry probability of success has continued to decline R&D | Innovative Medicines 2003-2007 2007-2011 64% 44% 22% 65% 3.9% 69% 54% 34% 70% 8.1% Source: KMR Group Pharmaceutical benchmarking Forum 2008 - 2010 Pharmaceutical Benchmarking Forum 2012 Pre-clinical Phase I Phase II Phase IIIRegistration 83% 91% NME Success Rates By Phase And Overall Average cycle times (yrs) 13.62009-2011 4.7 1.7 2.9 2.7 1.6

R&D environment is increasingly challenging 1972 2010 Efficacious Safe Efficacious Differentiated Safe Efficacious Differentiated Reimbursable R&D | Innovative Medicines

...and very significant challenges Declining returns and increasing risk in R&D Rising regulatory and payer requirements Few “easy” targets; declining success rates Longer cycle times and shorter patent lives Growing demand for innovative medicines Growing and ageing population Increasingly affluent emerging markets Technological advances Pressure on drug prices and market access Payers restricting prices and access Increased generic use and substitution Shifting geographic mix, to lower priced markets Financial and credit crisis National austerity measures Slowing economic growth Declining investor confidence

Pharma response: AZ

We have focused our R&D activities on three core areas Neuroscience Infection & vaccines CV- metabolism Respiratory, inflammation & autoimmunity Oncology Core therapy areas Opportunity-focused Heart disease 17 million deaths every year Cancer 7 million lives lost every year Diabetes 350 million people affected today Asthma 235 million sufferers today 13
14
The 5R framework: driving quality, not quantity Benefits Increasing our focus on key projects and competitive position Increasing the odds of pipeline to deliver Removing low value projects early Staffing projects to be competitive Freeing resources to innovate and re-invest in business priorities Right target Right safety Right patients Right commercial Right tissue/ Right exposure 14
15
We are an active collaborator with academia and industry
16
Current Pharma R&D landscape defined by various factors Players more focused to achieve breakthroughs Scientific leadership and the ability to access this internally and more than ever externally Strong regulatory involvement and hurdles Open innovation and collaboration Efficient management of work programmes with other collaborators and large external players Increased impact of payers and need to justify value
