Eli Lilly seems to cycle through a period off active acquisition followed by periods of inactivity. This is probably due to the need to assimilate acquisitions into the corporate structure and adjust strategy as a consequence of such assimilation. Periods of inactivity normally follow a major acquisition as was the case after acquisition of Icos and Imclone Systems.

Eli Lilly has been partially attracted to mega merger transactions whereby the company expands through the acquisition and assimilation of strategic target assets to realize business growth. This is evidenced by the acquisitions of Icos and Imclone Systems, the latter to get a strategic position in the biotech sector.
