According to Mergermarket, Zentiva is monitoring potential acquisition targets in neighbouring countries where it is active. According to an unnamed source, the company focuses on larger acquisitions, such as Slovakofarma (Sales in 2002 equalled EUR 130m), in order to deliver the required synergies. The source added that he/she would be happy to complete the deal next year. Zentiva focuses primarily on acquisitions, which would boost its sales and distribution capacity in the new market as its production capacity is now utilized at about 65%. Source: Mergermarket.
