SUMMARY
- Kaken Pharmaceutical (4521 JP) reported 2% YoY decline in revenue H1FY24, while operating profit decreased 33% YoY. Top selling products are impacted by NHI drug price revision and increasing competition.
- The company has reiterated FY24 guidance of flat revenue, 5% YoY decline in operating profit, and 23% YoY growth in net profit. Profitability is expected to deteriorate in H2.
- Kaken is not expected to see any immediate respite as the small contribution from the new products will not compensate for the revenue loss from its top selling products.
