AUSTRALIA HEALTHCARE - OVERALL
A healthy global portfolio In an increasingly volatile environment, pinpointing strong sector themes and companies underpinned by long-term structural growth is becoming more critical for investors seeking offshore diversification. We believe the healthcare sector fits the bill, with Healthcare Services (eg, ESRX, MCK, and CI (not rated) positioned as standout performers over the medium term, followed by Biotechnology (eg, BIIB and GILD (not rated)), Pharmaceuticals (eg, MRK and NVS (not rated)) and Medical Technology (eg, MDT and SJT (not rated)). In addition, we view two ETFs, domestically-traded iShares Global Healthcare EFT (IXJ (not rated)) and US listed iShares US Healthcare Providers (IHF (not rated)) as offering top-down sector exposure and options for investors seeking broader diversification in the space.

Diversifying offshore…but where should you invest? As the ASX200 is widely expected to underperform global markets again this year and offers poor diversification, investors are increasingly turning to international markets. The only question is where to invest? We believe global healthcare sits in a sweet spot, offering long-term structural growth via tailwinds from ageing populations, higher ROIC than most other industries, sustainable margins with high barriers to entry, continuous innovation and limited inter-exchangeability.
Value-based medicine - Healthcare Services front and centre Given an increasing focus on cost-effective healthcare, along with growing availability of generic drugs and Obamacare insurance mandates, we believe competitive power is shifting from drug manufacturers/suppliers to healthcare service providers. Thus, we believe Healthcare Services will be the standout performer over the medium term, featuring stocks such as Pharmaceutical Benefit Manager Express Scripts (ESRX), distributor McKesson (MCK); and insurer Cigna Corp (CI).
Global healthcare ETFs ETFs offer an increasingly popular way to gain direct access to global healthcare through a single trade. IXJ, the only Australia-listed ETF, has returned 71% over the past two years (>60% versus ASX200), while US-listed IHF, has seen a 63% two-year return (source: Bloomberg).

KEY CHARTS
Healthcare spending is unstoppable… Despite advances in medical technology, countries are struggling with rising healthcare costs, changing insurance coverage and uneven quality of care. Nowhere is this more evident than in the US, where since 2008, expenditure on health has totaled US$2.8trn, representing 17 .7% of GDP, an increase of 120bps. The personal burden is evident in a 2008 study that showed more than 60% of bankruptcies are due to high medical expenses. Unfortunately, healthcare spending is projected to continue on its growth path, with US CMS (Centres for Medicare and Medicaid Services) estimating a 6.3% CAGR to US$4.6trn through 2019, in line with the 7 % CAGR seen over the last decade and representing c20% of GDP.

… a complex volume-based system… The US healthcare distribution and purchasing system entails numerous transactions and caters to various stakeholders. Manufacturers tend to provide products through various distributors who supply end customers. The government sets drug-pricing benchmarks that are used to determine government reimbursement rates. Health plans, group purchasing organisations (GPOs) and pharmacy benefit managers (PBM for drugs) negotiate with manufacturers for discounts and rebates for the individuals enrolled in their plans or under their management based on volume, market share and formulary placement.
…transforming to focus on value and cost Against the above backdrop, we believe suppliers of products and services must spend time and effort to ensure justification of cost and utilisation to differentiate product offerings. In 2013, Harvard Business School Professor Michael Porter embraced this ‘value-agenda’, proposing a fundamentally new strategy to focus on high-value care with a goal to achieve the best patient outcomes at the lowest cost. Essentially, moving away from a supply-driven healthcare system organised around what physicians do to a patient-centred system organised around what patients need entails six interdependent and mutually reinforcing components.
Healthcare Services look most attractive Given the increasing focus on delivery of more efficient and cost effective healthcare, we believe competitive power is shifting from drug manufacturers and suppliers to Healthcare Services (eg Distributors, Pharmaceutical Benefit Managers (PBMs) and Managed Care Organisations (MCOs; insurers)). Thus, we believe Healthcare Services will be the standout performer over the medium term.

Healthcare- Going global
1. BACKGROUND
In a banks/resource-centric market, where the yield trade looks overdone, commodity prices are likely to remain volatile and overall earnings growth is modest, Australian investors have been increasingly turning to international investments to diversify portfolios, lower risk and potentially increase returns. However, given a soft global backdrop and increasing volatility, we believe investors buying overseas should pinpoint strong sector themes and focus on companies underpinned by long-term structural growth. We believe the healthcare sector fits the bill. Specifically, we believe ‘value-based medicine’ is the main catch-phrase across the space, with our segmental investment pecking order placing Healthcare Services as standout performers over the medium term (eg Express Scripts- ESRX; McKesson- MCK; Cigna Corp- CI; all not rated), followed by Biotechnology (eg Gilead Sciences- GILD; Biogen- BIIB; all not rated), Pharmaceuticals (Merck- MRK; Novartis- NVS; all not rated) and Medical Technology (Medtronic- MDT; St Jude Medical- SJT; all not rated). In addition, we v iew the only domestically-traded iShares Global Healthcare EFT (IXJ) and US listed iShares US Healthcare Providers (IHF) as offering top-down sector exposure and potential options for investors seeking broader diversification in the space.
2. THE LAY OF THE LAND
2.1 Defensive yield has delivered solid returns…
Since the beginning of 2010, the ASX has appreciated more than 55%, driven by defensive yield plays (+96%) offset by mining (-20%). However, in the current environment where economic growth is varied, global accommodative policies may diverge and US inflation looks likely to be stoked, we believe this trade may have reached a point of exhaustion. As prices of these defensive yield plays exceed underlying earnings and as market volatility ramps up, we think there is a high likelihood that this underlying fundamental gap differential will close.

2.4 …but fundamentals remain solid…
Looking forward, we continue to see healthcare as a standout sector against a backdrop of low global growth, as the defensive sector offers businesses with long-term structural growth prospects via:
• Tailwinds from ageing population
• Higher ROI than most other industries due to duopolies or oligopolies
• Higher pricing power, high innovation and limited inter-exchangeability
• M&A
• Expansion into emerging markets
• Implementation of the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act (Obamacare)

2.5 … supporting market leading earnings growth
Comparing 3-year earnings CAGR to 12-month forward PE across the market, healthcare and industrial sectors appear to stand out from the pack as well as the benchmarks. While valuations may appear extended, we believe in a world where global uncertainties are high, growth slowing, and risk of earnings revisions increasing, healthcare is still likely to catch a bid as the defensive sector offers businesses with long-term structural growth prospects, earnings consistency and certainty, along with the added potential benefits from lower AUD.

2.6 Global exposure and stock diversification is lacking…
The Australian stock market represents only 3% of global share markets, with high concentration risk as the top 10 stocks account for 55% of the ASX 200 and financials make up 40% of the index. Notably, the healthcare sector represents a mere 5% of the index, a far cry from the global MSCI index where healthcare has a 15% allocation.

2.8 …with bullishness seen across subsectors…
Using the same time period as above, strength of the S&P500 Healthcare index can be seen in almost across the majority of subsectors such as medical services providers, biotechnology, pharmaceuticals and medical devices. Compared to the ASX200 Healthcare index, the biotechnology sector takes a lead position, outperforming the index by nearly 40%, followed by providers (37%) and medtech (20%), with pharmaceuticals essentially the same. However, while the PE of the S&P500 Healthcare index has expanded 16% to 18.3x over this time, PEs across subsectors have varied widely, with expansion seen across providers (45% to 17 .8x), medtech (29% to 18.6x) and pharma (20% to 18.4x), while the biotechnology sector contracted (22% to 17 .5x) as earnings were adjusted higher and stock prices have pulled back on profit taking and pricing concerns.

3. GOING GLOBAL
3.1 Healthcare Services sit in the sweet spot
We believe a transformational shift is underway, where the traditional volume-based, fee-for-service healthcare is morphing into a value-based, consumer-driven structure, with increasing global awareness focusing the spotlight on cost and quality while customers have greater control over personal health management. Given the objective to deliver more efficient and cost effective healthcare, along with growing availability of generic drugs and Obamacare insurance mandates, we believe competitive power is shifting from drug manufacturers and suppliers to healthcare services (eg distributors, top tier pharmaceutical benefit managers (PBMs) and managed care organisations (MCOs; insurers)). Thus, we believe Healthcare Services will be the standout performer over the medium term.

3.2 ETF- instant geographic and stock diversification
We believe for investors seeking higher exposure to international healthcare equities and who do not want to buy companies directly or choose active fund managers with a record in international equities, ETFs offer a convenient top-down strategy to ‘buy’ markets. We highlight below two healthcare focused ETFs that have enjoyed strong momentum and have potentially superior weighting methodologies, which could allow these to continue leading the healthcare space going forward.

iShares Global Healthcare ETF (IXJ) - The only Australia-listed ETF that can provide investors with a broadly diversified portfolio of the mostly liquid, large cap global healthcare names. The US$2.2bn fund tracks the S&P Global Healthcare Sector Index, with 90 holdings across all healthcare sub-segments (ie biotech, pharma, medtech, and healthcare services). However, holdings are skewed to pharma/biotech (74%) and medtech (25%). The fund has returned 22.7% over the last 5 years and 40% over the past year, beating the ASX 200 Healthcare Index. Currently, the fund trades at a PE of 29.8x and has a P/B of 6.8x.

iShares U.S. Healthcare Providers (IHF) - A US$859.6m US-listed ETF that follows the Dow Jones US Select Healthcare Providers Index with exposure to companies that provide health insurance, diagnostics and specialised treatment. We v iew IHF as a good way to play the key thematic of value-based medicine as noted above. The fund holds 49 securities in its basket with the largest allocation going to healthcare providers (96.5%), with United Health (UNH) and Express Scripts (ESRX) at 13.8% and 9.5%, respectively. The fund has returned 12% since its 2006 inception, with returns of 21% over the past 5 years and 35% over the past year. Currently, the fund trades at a PE of 24.6x and has a P/B of 2.9x.

Strong share performance
We compared the iShares IHF and IXJ to the ASX200 healthcare index and broader market over the last two years. As seen in the chart below, iShares IXJ has been a fairly consistent outperformer, returning 71% over the past two years, 8% ahead of IHF, 30% above the ASX200 healthcare index and more than 60% above the ASX200. Given our belief that the healthcare service providers are better placed than pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies in the current cost-conscious, value-based operating environment, we believe IHF may prove to be a superior investment to IXJ, but see both outperforming the Australian healthcare index and broader market going forward.

4. HEALTHCARE SERVICES…BUYING THE DIPS
While not as well known as top-tier pharmaceutical, biotechnology and medical technology companies, we believe healthcare services, comprised of distributors, PBMs, and insurers, play a pivotal role in the provision and delivery of healthcare and should experience stable demand and good returns given:
• large market share and operating efficiency
• well-positioned- as a core fundamental driver is the need to control total healthcare costs; increased pricing scrutiny of all medical procedures and products including: surgeries, medical implants, pharmaceuticals, and capital equipment; cost-benefit will be questioned; playing squarely into regulatory mandates
• scale, networks, switching costs
• industry consolidation and partnerships
Figure 21: Healthcare Services SWOT
Strengths Weaknesses
Organic growth via aging population, customer awareness and new tech Need to show operational efficiencies across businesses
Healthy profit growth for drug suppliers Leverage with manufacturers/suppliers
Benefitting from patent expirations and new generic drugs Modest revenue growth as blockbuster drugs lose patents
At the heart of a system focused on higher efficiencies and lower cost Under heavy state and federal government regulation
Opportunities Threats
Improving sourcing and building efficient supply chains Increasing staff requirement and costs
Consumer-driven healthcare (CDHC) under Obamacare M&A among drugmakers putting pressure on distributor fees
Increasing scale, service networks and increasing switching costs Growing fee for billing, collection and payment processes
Profitable perhipheral healthcare services Capped insurer profits, restricted underwriting, increased competition
SOURCES: MORGANS, COMPANY REPORTS
Given this current cost-conscious, value-driven operating environment, we believe competitive power has shifted to drug distributors, top-tier PBMs, certain MCOs and health insurers, from manufacturers and suppliers as the latter must contend with increasing pricing pressure. We believe stock picking, in lieu of sector allocation, is the best strategy as sector valuation looks a little toppy.

4.1 PBMs - a critical cog in the healthcare value chain
We believe PBMs are becoming increasingly important in the provision of healthcare. PBMs manage drug benefits on behalf of employers and health plans through negotiating favourable prices from drug makers, where they receive a portion of that discount as payment, and creating and managing the formularies that dictate which drugs are covered and how much patients will pay out of their own pockets. In addition, PBMs also sell drugs, operating large specialty and mail-order pharmacies.

• Headquartered in St. Louis, Missouri, USA, the company is the one of the largest managers of prescription drug benefits from US employers and insurers, distributes specialty pharmaceuticals and medical supplies to providers, clinics, and hospitals, and also provides consulting services for pharmaceutical manufacturers to collect scientific evidence to guide the use of medicines.
• It manages more than one billion prescriptions each year for tens of millions of patients, with the aim to make drugs safer and more affordable. The company controls c50% of the US market (with CVS Health/Caremark control the remainder).
• A vocal critic of high drug prices, which the company has used to promote its services to potential customers, it is looking to negotiate with pharmaceutical firms to provide differentiated pricing depending on how well the medicines work.
• Management claims that ESRX challenges faced with digesting the US$29bn merger with Medco Health Solutions back in 2012 to become the biggest PMB in the US and losing its largest client UnitedHealth, which decided to run its own in-house pharmacy benefit business, are behind it.
• Management believes the company should benefit from a number of sector trends: has the clout to negotiate favourable prices from drug makers for health plans, and gets a cut of those savings; rising demand for specialty drugs should benefit the mail-order and specialty drug pharmacy business.
4.3 Distributors - a rational oligopoly
We believe the drug distribution space should continue to benefit from generic drug penetration, emerging biosimilars, an aging population, drug price inflation, new drug discoveries, and increased acquisitions and strategic

partnering. While patent losses on several blockbuster drugs and mergers among major drugmakers may put pressure on the distribution fees and limit strong top line growth over the near term, we view longer-term growth supported, as up to 26-28 million additional Americans will eventually be covered by health insurance under Obamacare by 2019 and better able to afford pharmaceuticals, targeting high-single to low-double-digit annual EPS gains. We also see stock benefiting from cost controls, divestitures of underperforming units, linking up with retail pharmacies in strategic partnerships and efficient capital allocation into acquisitions and common share buybacks. Currently, three companies generate 85-90% of all revenues across the US sector, Amerisource Bergen (ABC, not rated), Cardinal Health (CAH, not rated), and McKesson Corp (MCK, not rated).

• MCK looks well-placed as a premier global pharm distributor, with strong supplier pricing power, scale advantages and a solid track record of outperformance.
• Management sees benefits from high-growth specialty markets via expansion of current customer contracts, notably Wal-Mart (WMT), Target(TGT), and exclusive 5 year contract with Rite Aid, as traditional retailers look to distributors with larger scale to get better pricing and manage new regulatory burdens.
• McKesson continues to build scale in the US and global pharmaceutical distribution market, actively pursuing deals and acquisitions to drive growth (October 2013: US$8.3bn deal to buy German drugs wholesaler Celesio, given access to extensive drug distribution network in EU and US$10bn worth of generic drugs annually) expanding its global reach and drug purchasing power

Obamacare can be credited as the main driver of this growth, as the law forces people to buy health insurance, with subsidies offered via private insurers, it increased state-federal run Medicaid program, which is often run through private insurers, and new charges have been passed onto customers. In addition, Obamacare is driving sector consolidation, and helps to build a moat around existing players, resulting in lower competition, increased profit margins and growing shareholder returns.

5. BIOTECHNOLOGY
We believe biotechnology is the highest-profile subsector across healthcare, boasting high demand for effective treatments and new cures. However, the sector is facing increasing criticism about the rising and unsustainable cost of new therapies (eg hepatitis C, cancer, diabetes, etc) and an increasing emphasis on quality of care and value-based pricing.
Figure 26: Biotechnology SWOT
Strengths Weaknesses
Strong earnings growth and ROI underpinned by solid industry dynamics Sentiment-linked, with risks around R&D pipelines, M&A and regulators
Rich R&D piplines with a favourable regulatory environment Capital intensive with long development timelines
Opportunities Threats
M&A to broaden geographic reach and product offering Biosimilars (ie generic versions of biologic-based drugs)
Core drug discovery engine for pharma industry Fragmented, with smaller companies lacking capital for development
Non-cyclical provides defensive tilt to portfolios Recruiting and retention of the best and brightest
Scientific advances and growing unmet medical needs Political pressure and price controls
Improving efficiencies Increasing power of distributors, insurers and payers
Convergence of technologies Rapid technololgy innovation

5.1 Performance remains robust…valuation is attractive
This growth sector has posted 2 year returns of nearly 80%, with GILD and BIIB the standouts. While the sector is up 7% since the beginning of 2015, we believe there is a bit of "sell the leader” mentality across the space, as we would expect given a long stretch of continuous gains and significantly high valuations. However, we v iew recent pullbacks on pricing concerns, possibly cooling M&A and ‘risk-off’ sentiment, as a buying opportunity as fundamentals are positive, scientific advances endure, clinical progression is strengthening pipelines, the regulatory landscape looks supportive and higher efficiencies all make for bright prospects for continued sector growth. Interestingly, the US biotechnology index has outperformed the broader market 8 out of 10 times over in the 2Q/3Q timeframe.

6. PHARMACEUTICALS
We believe the pharmaceutical industry continues to evolve, as patent cliff issues and Obamacare impacts that had investor on edge for years are largely behind the large integrated firms, as the fundamentals continue to strengthen as the population ages leading to growing demand for drugs and services to fight disease such as obesity, diabetes and cancer. In addition, while clinical development remains costly, the sector is becoming much more focused on R&D projects with significant potential, culling non-performing assets and looking to growth inorganically via M&A.
Figure 29: Pharmaceutical SWOT
Strengths Weaknesses
Large operators with quality-focused strategic portfolios R&D budgets increasing as ROI declines
Strong manfacturing base with growing R&D pipelines Operate in a highly regulated environment and politically sensitive
Knowledge-based with strong clinical/regulatory expertise Innovative effectiveness varies widely
Strong brand reputations Fragmented internal capabilities
Opportunities Threats
Increasing consumer health focus Increasing aggressive generic industry
M&A to broaden geographic reach and product offering Biosimilars (ie generic versions of biologic-based drugs)
Globalisation and expansion in emerging markets Price pressure and exclusion formularies
Innovation and R&D pipelines Rebates and discounts for formulary position
SOURCES: MORGANS, COMPANY REPORTS
6.1 Performance strong, but valuation looks toppy
The US Pharmaceutical Index is up more than 12% YTD, a solid showing compared to the S&P 500 gaining only 3% over the same period. However, returns over the past two years vary widely, with BMY and BAYN the standouts at more than 55%, while GSK and SNY have been the laggards, down more than 10% over the same time period. In addition, the index trades above 1SD rich. Nevertheless, over the longer term, drug stocks tend to pay investors 4x higher returns that the boarder market. We believe this track record is not likely to slow any time soon, but would advocate stock selection over sector allocation, with major M&A deals happening and a host of clinical trial catalysts that could offer some outstanding breakthrough drug treatments.

6.2 M&A likely to keep the sector well bid
We believe competition for tomorrow’s blockbuster drugs is more intense than ever. In fact, pharmaceutical deals have accounted for 10.5% of total M&A worldwide through 1Q15, up from the historic 3-4% range. In 1Q15, M&A transactions targeting pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies has reached US$59.3bn, a 94% yoy increase and the highest activity seen in 6 years. This heightened activity is likely to remain, in our view, as drugmakers continue to intently watch developing drug candidates at other firms as their own R&D portfolios need to be replenished and older drugs are eroded by generic substitutes.
Figure 32: Pharmaceutical M&A activity
SOURCES: MORGANS, THOMSON REUTERS
6.3 Patent exposure and pipeline depth
We analysed key drug patent expiries over the next 5 years for top tier pharmaceutical companies as a percentage of total revenue to better understand what companies have the most exposure to potential declining revenues. While AbbVie appears to have the most to lose as Humira, a biologic for treatment of rheumatoid arthritis and at least five other diseases, patents expire (2017 US/2018 EU), we believe manufacturing complexity is likely to slow generic penetration. On the other hand, Bayer sit on top as it has very few patent losses over the next five year. The number of drug candidates in R&D pipelines over this timeframe can act as a counterbalance to patent expires. While we acknowledge differences in the probabilities of success, exact timing of launches and market potential make direct comparison difficult, we view pipeline depth as offering some insight into R&D productivity.

• Targeting mid-single digit top-line growth, with a safe yield and potential for inorganic growth as well as continued organic growth
• While acknowledging FX risk associated with owning ADRs, volatility of the Swiss Franc can present an opportunity, as a strong Franc may be used to acquire companies and add to inorganic growth.
7. MEDICAL TECHNOLOGY
We believe significant changes to the healthcare market over the past few years have impacted the medical technology sector the most. Intense pressure to control healthcare costs has focused manufactures on delivering increased value to the buyer at a decreased cost. While increasing value of a medical device and lowering its cost appears would appear to put profitability at risk, R&D needs to effectively identify value from stakeholders (eg physicians, nurses, technicians, and supply chain decision) to design a product that meets value expectations. We believe medical technology companies are addressing the burdens of stringent and complex procedures, through expanding product offerings, investing in emerging geographies and efficient capital allocation plans to gain scale.
Figure 35: Medical Technology SWOT
Strengths Weaknesses
Innovative research and product development Bridging the cost/value gap
Distinctive brands with diverse sources of healthcare revenue R&D effficiencies and value-based products
Rising consumerism A stringent, complex and highly regulated operating environment

Opportunities Threats
Ongoing scienfitic progress High competitive intensity
Higher healthcare consumption on demographic shift Intense global pressure to control healthcare costs

7.1 Performance strong
The US medical technology industry has grown at 5% per annum compared with 4% for the rest of the economy from 1997 to 2013. During this time, surgical appliance and supplies manufacturing, the largest component, grew at 6%, while ophthalmic goods manufacturing recorded 8% growth. We forecast continued mid-to high single digit sector growth, given the benefit from an average of 10k baby boomers retiring each day over the next decade and stability due to its recession-proof moniker. Given these strong fundamentals, the sector performance strongly and is current trading at 30% above its longer term average PE.
