FDC Reports

F-D-C Reports is a specialized publishing and market intelligence company focused on the pharmaceutical, medical device, and healthcare industries. Founded in 1939 by Wallace Werble, the company became famous for its "color-coded" newsletters, most notably "The Pink Sheet," which provides in-depth coverage of drug regulatory and policy news. Other publications in its portfolio include "The Gray Sheet" for medical devices and "The Rose Sheet" for cosmetics and toiletries. The company's reporting is widely considered the gold standard for tracking FDA activities, legislative changes, and commercial trends affecting the life sciences sector. Over the decades, it has transitioned from a family-owned business to a key component of larger global information providers. After being acquired by Elsevier and later Informa, the F-D-C Reports portfolio is currently managed under the Citeline brand within the Norstella group.
