Items this document does not state (13)
These are items the company does not state in this document. We do not leave them blank, nor fill them in from other sources or by inference.
The reasons the company gives
The company's own explanation, not something inferred from the numbers.Revenue declined due to drug price revisions, the entry of generic drugs for Desalex, and a decrease in Gatifloxacin-related revenue from new-drug overseas sales following the previous year's increase. Operating profit declined as a result of lower revenue. The interim net loss attributable to owners of the parent resulted from the recognition of a loss on the business transfer associated with the succession of the generic drug business and other items as extraordinary losses. The full-year forecast was revised to reflect the upfront contractual payment under the licensing agreement and the loss on the business transfer.
