FINANCIAL INFORMATION

 

The sales volume for Dec/2010 fiscal term amounted to Yen 379,509 million, an 11.5% down from Yen 428,947 million in the previous term.  Sales of anti-influenza agent Tamiflu declined as sharply as 76.1%, as the swine flu pandemic subsided.  Excluding Tamiflu sales, which vary widely year to year, sales rose 4.2% to a record Yen 357,400 million, after absorbing the impact of a National Health Insurance (NHI) reimbursement price revision.  By Divisions, oncology Div up 14.1% to Yen 141,200 million; Bone & Joint Diseases Div up 8.7% to Yen 62,600 million; Renal Diseases Div down 5.9% to Yen 57,400 million, due to lower sales of Epogin (a recombinant human erythropoietin) as a result of NHI reimbursement price revision and more-intense competition; Transplant, immunology & Infectious Diseases Div down 1.5% to Yen 25,800 million.  The recurring profit was posted at Yen 65,088 million and the net profit at Yen 41,433 million, respectively, compared with Yen 90,395 million recurring profit and Yen 56,634 million net profit, respectively, a year ago. 

           

 (Jan/June/2011 results): Sales Yen 181,938 million (down 0.2 %%), operating profit Yen 35,191 million (up 27.7%), recurring profit Yen 36,182 million (up 38.3%), net profit Yen 17,087 million (up 4.3%).  (% compared with the corresponding period a year ago).  Sales of anti-influenza agent Tamiflu declined 61.7% to Yen 4,600 million.  After the exclusion of sales of Tamiflu and other operating revenues, sales amounted to Yen 170,200 million, an increase of 0.9% on the year.

 

For the current term ending Dec 2011 the recurring profit is projected at Yen 73,100 million and the net profit at Yen 37,000 million, on a 4.1% rise in turnover, to Yen 395,200 million.  Sales of anti-cancer “Avastin” will grow, backed by increased use for the treatment of colon cancer and expanded indication for lung cancer.  Sales of a rheumatoid arthritis drug will rally in the second half after temporary suspension of exports due to the Earthquake.  New drug licensing revenues from the parent company will also help.  Extraordinary loss on earthquake damage, etc, will be Yen 10 billion.  Production facilities at Utsunomiya Plant, damaged by the Earthquake, will be mostly restored in Sept 2011 for Yen 6 billion.   

 

The financial situation is considered FAIR and good for ORDINARY business engagements.            Max credit limit is estimated at Yen 11,972.9 million, on 30 days normal terms.
