Life sciences companies operate in a world of uncertainty. Issues related to cost and pricing pressures, clinical and operational innovation, customer and consumer engagement, and regulatory compliance have existed for decades. |
|
In addition, new and evolving technology advancements ? more sophisticated electronic medical records, wearable health care devices, next-generation sequencing, breakthroughs in genomics, immunotherapy, and gene therapy and use of real-world evidence and data analytics ? have primed the life sciences sector for disruption. | |
|
As life sciences companies confront these uncertainties, their finance professionals will be faced with a wave of financial reporting changes ? including those related to revenue recognition, leases, the definition of a business, and non-GAAP measures. Applying these changes will significantly impact reporting in an industry where mergers and acquisitions are common and companies enter into complex collaboration and licensing arrangements to develop, commercialize and ultimately market their drugs and devices. | |
|
Deloitte's eighth annual accounting and financial reporting update for the life sciences industry publication helps bring to life these significant reporting changes, providing finance professionals with a unique perspective on the transparent and timely implementation of the changes. |
