Hisamitsu Pharmaceutical Co (4530 JP) has announced solid Q3FY23 results, with double-digit revenue growth and triple-digit operating and net profit growth, mainly driven by the OTC business of the company.
With the resumption of sporting/outdoor events globally and increasing unwillingness to use opioid for pain relief especially in the U.S., Salonpas is expected to continue its growth trajectory.
Hisamitsu has reiterated FY23 guidance. However, considering the current progress rate of all the parameters versus guidance, we think actual performance of Hisamitsu will exceed guidance.
