  14. Macro-economic Outlook The current economic climate continues to put strain on credit markets, forcing companies and consumers to hold onto their cash. Robeco’s Macroeconomic Outlook Report predicts that 2009 will be characterized by an economic recession that is longer and deeper than any that have occurred for a quarter of a century. In spite of the economic crisis and continued expansion, Walgreens reduced the growth in expenses by 6% in fiscal 2008. This signifies increased efficiency.

  15. Industry Analysis In recent years the drug retail sector has been growing at a fluctuating rate. CAGR for 2004-2008 = 5% and is expected to increase to 5.8% for five year period 2008-2013. The retail drug sector, valued at $1.5 billion in 2008, is expected to reach $2 billion by the end of 2013. http://globalbb.onesource.com/web/Reports/ReportMainIndustry.aspx?SicCodeID=220585&Process=CP&Report=INDUSTRYSUMMARY( Accessed September 30, 2009)

  16. SWOT Analysis/Porter’s Five Forces Large number of buyers weakens buyer power, but negligible switching costs strengthens it.  MODERATE THREAT Highly competitive industry driven by number of players, low switching costs, and undifferentiated products. Drugs are thought of as commodities.  INTENSE RIVALRY High industry attractiveness and low barriers to entry.  STRONG THREAT Supermarkets and generics are large threats.  Strong Threat to branded drugs The large retailers purchase directly from several suppliers, and often carry their own brands as well. This puts pressure on suppliers. Careful of over reliance.  MODERATE THREAT http://globalbb.onesource.com/web/Reports/ReportMainIndustry.aspx?SicCodeID=220585&Process=CP&Report=INDUSTRYSUMMARY( Accessed September 30, 2009)
