Measurements in/of Consumer savings of at least six times the amount of FTC resources allocated to merger program. (efficiency
measure)

Other Information:
PERFORMANCE HIGHLIGHTS During FY 2010, the agency saved consumers approximately 16 times the amount of resources devoted to
the merger program, as calculated using the average consumer savings obtained under Performance Measure 2.1.2 ($586 million)
divided into the amount of resources used on the merger program. This result is largely attributable to consumer savings that
exceeded target due to the presence of several enforcement actions over the last three years in the pharmaceutical industry,
which involved significantly sized relevant product markets.

Target exceeded. During FY 2010, the agency saved consumers approximately 16 times the amount of resources devoted to the
merger program, as calculated using the average consumer savings obtained under Performance Measure 2.1.2 ($586 million) divided
into the amount of resources used in the current fiscal year. This result is in large part determined by the presence of several
enforcement actions over the last three years in the pharmaceutical industry, which involved significantly sized relevant
product markets. The FTC will continue to monitor and reassess the target moving forward. Data Source: The ratio of consumer
savings in merger actions to the amount of resources allocated to the merger program is calculated using data on consumer
savings obtained under Performance Measure 2.1.2, divided into the amount of monetary resources expended on the merger program
as reported by the FTC’s Financial Management Office.
