About this listen

 Pharmaceutical companies are scrambling to respond to the Trump administration's tariff threats, seeking to mitigate duties on their products while keeping the impact on their tax bills to a minimum. The industry has long leveraged complex transfer pricing arrangements to cut down on its tax bills, but now the looming tariffs could spark a major rethink for where companies make their drugs and the location of their crown jewel: the intellectual property. Pharmaceuticals were exempt from the initial wave of tariffs announced earlier this year, but subsequent months have seen threats of heavy fines and taxes from the administration and a looming national security investigation, which could result in heavy duties on the industry. In this week's Talking Tax podcast, Cronus Consulting founder Nick Shipley talked with reporter Caleb Harshberger about how pharmaceutical companies are navigating the chaos, and what it could mean for their tax planning and operations. Shipley is a consultant for the pharmaceutical industry. Do you have feedback on this episode of Talking Tax? Give us a call and leave a voicemail at 703-341-3690.
