Highlights
As a proportion of new lending commitments, first home buyer lending has fallen sharply since 2009. Between 2002 and 2009, first home buyers generally accounted for around 23% of monthly lending commitments. In March 2011, only 12% of lending commitments were for first time buyers.
More theoretically, the value of an investment property should be equal to the sum of all future discounted net rental income, with the discount rate being proportionate to the expected risk of the investment. This is analogous to how the value of a share is defined as the sum of all future discounted dividends.

There are some segments that will still be active in the forecasted upcoming subdued market. Refinancers will drive an increasing proportion of lending commitments. Downsizers and upgraders are also expected to account for a larger proportion of the market activity.

Report Summary

Seismic shifts are underway in the U.S. market for pet medications as the top veterinary brands of flea/tick spot-ons enter broader distribution; Bayer is leading the way with Advantage and K9 Advantix. At the same time, generic versions of fipronil (the active ingredient in Merial’s Frontline) are coming onto the scene, in some cases resulting in court battles and product withdrawals. Also upping the ante, major retailers including Walmart and Target are moving into the pet medications space both in store and online, representing new competition to veterinarians and third-party Internet retailers such as PetMed Express. The upshot is increased price pressure, but also potential for an expanded base of purchasers as pet specialty and mass-market retailers create stronger pet health departments centered around formerly vet-only products. Also bolstering market prospects, all of the world’s largest pharmaceutical companies continue to invest in medications for companion animals, often mirroring trends in human medications while targeting the needs of the growing populations of aging and overweight pets.

Bringing in broad perspective from other reports in Packaged Facts’ extensive Pet Medication Market Collection, this report analyzes the market for prescription, over-the-counter, and “ethical” (nonprescription medications whose distribution is restricted by the manufacturer to veterinarians) medications for dogs and cats, with a particular focus on brand-name products used by consumers and on antiparasitics. Retail sales are quantified and projected forward through 2015, and broken out by product type, animal type and retail channel. Despite the lingering impact of the recession, the market outlook remains strong, with U.S. retail sales projected to grow 38% from 2010 to 2015 to reach $9.3 billion. The report provides in-depth coverage of competitive trends and new product trends, and features exclusive consumer data from Packaged Facts’ May-June 2011 Pet Owner Survey. Uniquely cross-tabulated consumer survey results from Experian Simmons provide additional insight into pet medication consumer usage rates, demographics and psychographics.

The Latino Health and Beauty Care Shopper

Published:October 2011

No. of Pages: 146

Price : $3500

Report Summary

Latino consumers have an outsized impact on the market for HBC products in the United States. Over the past decade, spending by Latino consumers on personal care products grew more than 40%, nearly three times faster than it increased among non-Latino consumers. By 2015 Latinos will make up 20% of 18- to 49-year-olds, an age group critically important to HBC marketers, and will account for a growing share of consumers of HBC products in the future.

Packaged Facts The Latino Health and Beauty Care Shopper provides an in-depth analysis of the grooming and personal care habits of Latinas and Latino men. The report provides crucial insights into the HBC product preferences and brand choices of Latinas and Latino men to enable marketers of HBC products to refine their marketing approaches to this increasingly important consumer segment. For example, compared to women on average, Latinas are significantly more likely to use perfume, mascara and facial cleansing cream. Latino men are much more likely than men on average to use cologne or after shave, skin care products and professional personal care services such as pedicures and massages.

The report opens with a presentation of topline findings, including an overview of which national HBC brands perform best among Latino consumers. The next chapter analyzes current spending and projects total spending by Latinos on personal care products through 2016. The report continues with chapters on Latinas and their usage of cosmetics, skin care products, fragrances and personal care products such as deodorants. Another chapter provides in-depth analysis of usage patterns among Latino men for skin care and shaving products and for personal care products. The report concludes with chapters on oral hygiene habits and products and household usage of baby products and bath and shower products. Each chapter analyzes the volume and type of products used by Latinos and assesses the comparative success of major national HBC brands among Latino shoppers.

The Latino Health and Beauty Care market analyzes the usage by Latino men and Latinas of nearly 40 HBC products tracked by Experian Simmons National Consumer Study (NCS). Product categories included in the report that are used exclusively by Latinas include cosmetics and fragrances (eye shadow/eyeliner/eye brow pencil, mascara, foundation/concealer makeup, blushers/bronzers, lipstick and lip gloss, nail polish/nail care products and perfume/cologne/toilet water) and hair removal products.

The report analyzes usage by Latino men of after shave/cologne and usage by both Latino men and Latinas of the following product categories: skin care (facial cleansing/medicated products/toners, moisturizers/creams/lotions and suntan/screen and sunless products); hair care and hair care products (shampoo, hair conditioner, hair styling creams and gels, hair spray, at-home hair coloring products and home permanents and relaxers), shaving products (electric and battery shavers, disposable razors/shavers, razor blades for non-disposable razors, shaving cream or gel) and other HBC products (deodorants and antiperspirants and eye care products). Oral hygiene products covered in the report include manual and power toothbrushes, toothpaste, tooth whiteners, dental floss and mouthwash/dental rinse. The report also analyzes household usage of baby and children’s HBC products (baby oil and lotion, baby/children’s shampoo, baby wash/bath products, baby and bath powder) and bath and shower products (bar soap, body wash and liquid soap).

The principal source of primary research data used in the report is the Fall 2010 Experian Simmons NCS, which was fielded between October 2009 and December 2010. U.S. Government sources include the 2010 Census and 2009 American Community Survey of the Census Bureau and data from the Consumer Expenditure Survey of the Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS).

Fats and Salad/Cooking Oils in the U.S.: Butter, Margarine, Olive Oil, and Beyond

Published: October 2011
Price: $ 3500

Fats and oils products are a huge and growing market, with 2011 sales of $9.2 billion projected to near $10.6 billion by 2016. Research supporting the important role of specific types of fat in maintaining health has caused many consumers to rethink the role that fats and oils play in their diets, and marketers have responded by offering an increasing number of products squarely targeting those seeking healthy options. While value is still one of the primary drivers of fats and oils purchases, with private-label products dominating in a few key categories, the economy has recovered to the extent that consumers are once again making health and convenience budgetary priorities.

This completely new Packaged Facts report examines the U.S. Fats and Oils Market within the context of broader food industry trends in new product development and marketing. Major categories covered include butter, margarine, mayonnaise, cooking/salad oil, olive oil, cooking sprays, shortening, and popcorn oil. To accommodate the complexities of the U.S. market within shifting socioeconomic contexts, the report investigates not only the sales data, new product introductions, and marketing strategies, but also the lifestyle patterns determining trends in fats and oils.

Custom Packaged Facts consumer survey data provide insight into fats and oils usage, purchasing patterns, and health and wellness trends across consumer demographics, and Experian Simmons Market Research Bureau data provide a detailed look at category-level and brand penetration levels. The report Fats and Salad/Cooking Oils in the U.S.: Butter, Margarine, Olive Oil, and Beyond uses Information Resources, Inc. InfoScan Review data to quantify mass-market marketer and brand shares across seven product categories, and SPINSscan data to present category sales breakdowns in the natural and gourmet/specialty channels. Marketer and brand profiles in major categories further define the relationship between consumer attitudes and the market exigencies of product development.
