The company's own explanation, not something inferred from the numbers.

The acquisition will bring in-house the manufacture of Asacol®, which has been handled by HPW, and strengthen the stable supply of the product by enabling the Company to manage manufacturing capacity, production planning and quality control directly and flexibly. Another reason is to bring HPW's expertise and experienced employees into the group to address future manufacturing needs and expand the product portfolio.
