Hisamitsu Pharmaceutical Co (4530 JP) has reported double-digit revenue and net profit growth in Q3FY24, mainly driven by 21% YoY growth in Salonpas focused OTC pharmaceutical products.
The company attributes OTC product revenue growth to aggressive sales promotion activities in Japan and overseas, recovery of domestic economic activity and inbound demand, and impact of the weaker yen.
Encouraged by Salonpas revenue recovery, Hisamitsu has raised FY24 guidance. The company has revised FY24 revenue guidance upward by 7% to ¥141 billion (up 10% YoY) from ¥132 billion.
