== Risks ==
''<u>Research and Development Uncertainty</u>''

The pharmaceutical industry's research and development process is characterized by high uncertainty and substantial costs. Failures in drug discovery and development are common, leading to significant financial investments without guaranteed returns.

''<u>Revenue Replacement Challenges</u>''

There is a possibility that the company might have trouble introducing new products that make enough money to replace the ones losing protection or facing competition. If this challenge isn't managed effectively, it could have a negative impact on the company's overall financial performance.

''<u>Regulatory Approval Complexity</u>''

Tough rules from regulators about how well drugs work and how safe they are can make it hard to get new drugs approved. Delays and not being sure when approvals will happen in different places can mean we miss chances in the market and might have problems with keeping enough of our products in stock.

''<u>Revenue Predictability Concerns</u>''

The unpredictable nature of revenue growth rates and demand patterns for newly introduced products introduces uncertainty into financial forecasting and planning.

''<u>Challenges in Selling New Products from Business Growth</u>''

There's a risk that when new products are introduced through business growth, they might not turn out as expected. Issues like failed clinical tests, problems with accurate data, regulatory obstacles, and selling difficulties could make it tough to achieve the anticipated benefits.
