2. Management Policies
1. Principal Management Policies
The Company is a joint holding company established on September 28, 2005 through the joint stock transfer implemented by Sankyo Company, Limited and Daiichi Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd. The Company and all the other companies in the DAIICHI SANKYO Group (the “Group”) are currently focused on solving various business issues, for the complete integration which is scheduled in April 2007.
The vision of the Group is to become a Japan-based “global pharma-innovator” that meets the medical needs of people worldwide by continuously developing innovative pharmaceuticals and related services. As a leading company in Japan’s pharmaceutical industry, DAIICHI SANKYO aims to develop a continuous stream of innovative drugs, and to expand its operations, built upon a global business bases, in the world’s major countries, and thereby to become a global player with its strong competitiveness in certain therapeutic areas.
In pursuit of this vision, the Company is determined to create three corporate values: economic value for shareholders through strong growth generated by innovative products; social value for the society by fulfilling a contributory role as a good corporate citizen; and human value by enhancing human development of the employees through proactive support for skill improvement.
2. Shareholder Profit Distribution Policies
The Company has prioritized the distribution of profits generated by the DAIICHI SANKYO Group businesses among the key management issues. The profit distribution is determined, while focusing on a level of return that is commensurate with underlying business performance and capital efficiency, based on comprehensive consideration of other factors, such as the need to build up retained earnings to fund future business development for growth strategies.
The Company has set a medium-term goal of achieving a dividend-on-equity (DOE) ratio of 5% (i.e. payout of total dividends equal to 5% of shareholders’ equity) by the fiscal year ending March 2010. Going forward, the Company plans to increase the level of dividends steadily toward this goal. The Company also plans to buy back, in a strategic manner, its own shares.
Undistributed earnings will be primarily used for investments in Daiichi Sankyo’s future growth strategies including the strengthening of R&D, corporate collaboration, and overseas business development.
3. Number of Shares of Common Stock per Unit
To increase the liquidity of its shares and expand its shareholder base, the Company has set the size of its share trading unit at 100 shares.
4. Business Performance Targets
The DAIICHI SANKYO Group aims to greatly enhance its earning power through the synergies created by the business integration, and a steady sales growth from its existing mainstay products and contribution by new products, while maintaining R&D spending at a level required to pursue the “global pharma-innovator” status. The performance goals for the fiscal year ending March 31, 2010 have been set to at net sales of ¥932.0 billion and operating income of ¥255.0 billion.
5. Medium- to Long-Term Management Strategies and Challenges
For the DAIICHI SANKYO Group, the ongoing integration process is an opportunity to make it prepared to take its first step as a Japan-based “global pharma-innovator.” The Company is actively tackling the issues discussed below as part of this process.
(1) | Realization of Complete Integration |
In line with the integration schedule, the first step toward the complete business integration was the establishment of the Company as a joint holding company through the stock transfer. Operational integration has since progressed in several areas. The integration of sales and marketing functions in the U.S., development functions in both Europe and the U.S., and the healthcare businesses was completed on schedule by April 2006. The two remaining goals to complete by the end of March 2007 are: the establishment of an independent operation outside the DAIICHI SANKYO Group by all the non-pharmaceutical businesses; and the complete integration of the pharmaceutical businesses of Sankyo Company, Limited and Daiichi Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd. through merger with the holding company, DAIICHI SANKYO.
The DAIICHI SANKYO Group is focusing its collective efforts on the realization of complete integration with an aim of realizing the highest level of operational efficiency in the industry. Various business integration committees have been formed to guide this process, including the installation of common support teams, such as one for the integration of the HR systems. By the time the merger has been completed, the Company expects the integration process will have delivered substantial benefits, ranging from improved use of personnel, streamlined cost structures and other operational synergies to stronger management and business development functions as well as more effective HR training and development.
(2) | Concentration on the Pharmaceutical Business |
To promote superior earnings and consistent growth, the DAIICHI SANKYO Group plans to concentrate on the pharmaceutical business consisting of prescription drug and healthcare product operations. The plan is to complete the establishment of an independent operation outside the DAIICHI SANKYO Group by the non-pharmaceutical businesses before the end of March 2007.
Fuji Flour Milling Co., Ltd. already concluded a merger agreement with Nitto Flour Milling Co., Ltd. in September 2005 and became independent of the Group when the merger came into effect in April 2006. Wakodo Co., Ltd. also will become independent of the Group in May 2006 as the Group is to sell its equity interests in Wakodo through a TOB by Asahi Breweries, Ltd.
(3) | Enhancement in Innovative Drug Discovery |
In order to achieve its goal of developing innovative new drugs to fulfill unsatisfied medical needs, the Company is working to build an R&D operation with specific management objectives. The principal objectives include (1) a global R&D organization of an appropriate scale; (2) sufficient scale to support innovative researches in the key therapeutic areas; (3) retention and development of researchers for in-house discovery of key drug candidates; and (4) effective and efficient controls on development projects coupled with timely decision-making.
The integration of the R&D management functions of Sankyo and Daiichi is one of the top management priorities within the overall integration process. Upon successful completion of the integration of the development organizations in Europe and the United States in April 2006, the Company has already started a global drug development process, a year ahead of the original schedule. Back in October 2005, the Company established the Global Executive Meeting of Research and Development (GEMRAD) as the deliberative body to facilitate the R&D-related decision making. GEMRAD has designated cardiovascular, glucose metabolic, infectious and cancer diseases as the strategic therapeutic areas for the DAIICHI SANKYO Group. The selection of drug development candidates within these areas has also been completed. Based on a priority evaluation on each candidate, GEMRAD has selected five pipeline drugs as the top-priority development projects for the DAIICHI SANKYO Group: prasugrel (CS-747), an antiplatelet agent; DU-176b, a factor-Xa inhibitor; CS-8663, a combination drug containing the antihypertensives olmesartan and amlodipine; DJ-927, a taxane derivative (oral anticancer); and DZ-697b, an antiplatelet agent. A development project team has been set up to manage R&D activities for each of these key pipeline drug candidates.
(4) | Enhancement of Earnings Bases in Japan and Overseas |
The integration of the domestic prescription drug businesses will result in a combined sales force of over 2,500 medical representatives (MRs), which will afford the DAIICHI SANKYO Group superior marketing power in terms of both quality and quantity. The integration will also facilitate further strengthening of relationships with medical wholesalers operating on a national scale, thereby enabling the implementation of a distribution strategy that make most use of economies of scale. Beginning in April 2007, the Company plans to concentrate its marketing power on promoting sales of the leading products, thereby increasing sales and creating a stronger base of sales operations within the domestic market. Collaborative activities have already commenced forOlmetec® (November 2005) andCravit® (April 2006) to accelerate the realization of merger benefits.
In overseas markets, the Company plans to take full advantage of larger economies of scale created by the integration and thereby achieve substantial increases in product value by conducting both development and marketing in-house for certain high-priority projects, particularly in the United States. To this end, management recognizes a critical need in the expansion of overseas development and marketing bases in the United States and other markets. The Company plans to focus on such expansion through various means which include the selective acquisition of external resources based on an alliance- and M&A-centered strategy.
The Company established DAIICHI SANKYO, INC. by integrating the U.S.-based operations of Sankyo and Daiichi, in April 2006 and has been expanding the U.S. operations.
In the healthcare drug operations, the Company established Daiichi Sankyo Healthcare Co., Ltd., by integrating the healthcare businesses of Sankyo and Daiichi, and started its operations in April 2006.
Going forward, the Company plans to strengthen its earnings base by constructing a low-cost operational structure and by expanding sales of exiting brands as well as new products, through its focus on integrated capabilities in R&D, sales and marketing.
In addition, in April 2006, the Company acquired all the shares of Zepharma Inc., the healthcare business of Astellas Pharma Inc. The plan is to integrate the operations of Zepharma with those of Daiichi Sankyo Healthcare in April 2007, which will strengthen its earnings base by further expanding the scale of operations and by boosting brand asset values.
6. Litigation
(1) | In the United States, numerous lawsuits seeking damages and other compensation were brought against Warner-Lambert Company and other pharmaceutical companies by certain patients who took the diabetes drug Rezulin, which had been sold until March 2000 using a compound whose generic name is troglitazone supplied by the Sankyo Company, Limited, a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company. A U.S. subsidiary of the Company, Sankyo Pharma Inc. (currently, DAIICHI SANKYO, INC.), is named as a defendant in a small portion of these cases, and it is defending these cases in cooperation with Warner-Lambert. In these cases, the compensation demanded from all defendants includes claims for both compensatory and punitive damages. In connection with the costs and damages to be borne by the Sankyo Company, Limited and its subsidiaries, there is a provision in the license agreement with Warner-Lambert indemnifying the Sankyo Company, Limited and its subsidiaries. |
(2) | Daiichi Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd., a subsidiary of the Company, has settled with most of the civil claims in the United States, following the earlier antitrust judgment against Daiichi related to its sales of bulk vitamins. In Europe, Daiichi was in the process of an appeal with the European Court of First Instance to reduce the fine initially imposed by the European Commission. |
In March 2006, the court ruled a reduction in the amount of the fine to §1,800 million and the Company accepted the ruling. As a result, the Company, which had already expensed a part of the fine as an extraordinary loss in the fiscal year ended March 31, 2002, charged the balance in the extraordinary losses in the fiscal year ended March 31, 2006.
(3) | With its local U.S. licensee as co-plaintiff, Daiichi Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd., a subsidiary of the Company, filed a patent infringement lawsuit in a U.S. district court against the Mylan Group, who had filed an application for a generic version of levofloxacin (one of the Company’s leading products). The U.S. district court ruled in favor of Daiichi in December 2004, which was then appealed by the Mylan Group. In December 2005, the appellate court affirmed the decision by the U.S. district court. |
Going forward, the DAIICHI SANKYO Group will continue to rigorously defend its intellectual property rights.

3. Results of Operations and Financial Position
The Company was established on September 28, 2005, as a joint holding company through the share transfer. Accordingly, as the current fiscal year is the Company’s first year of operation, year-by-year performance comparisons are not presented.
Performance figures for the fiscal year include the two subsidiaries’ consolidated results from April 1, 2005 through March 31, 2006, as well as the Company’s non-consolidated results from September 28, 2005 through March 31, 2006.
1. Result of Operations
(1) | Overview of the fiscal year |
While, the global pharmaceutical market continues to realize a certain level of growth, led by the U.S. market, the global market is characterized by such trends as the progressive globalization and the increasing strictness of new drug development standards as well as the intense competition centered on global mega pharmaceutical companies in the areas of both R&D and marketing activities. In the Japanese market, measures to contain healthcare costs advanced further as national university hospitals were reorganized into independent medical corporations and an increasing number of medical institutions have been adopting a new comprehensive in-hospital treatment evaluation system. In addition, the competition among increasingly prominent foreign-owned pharmaceutical companies and other major companies has intensified, which resulted in our business environment being intensively harsh.
The DAIICHI SANKYO Group focused its marketing efforts on expanding markets for its products by promoting the proper use of drugs through the provision of accurate information related to the efficacy and safety of its products. As a result, the Company posted consolidated net sales of ¥925.9 billion in its first inaugural fiscal year. The Company’s top-selling products in Japan included the antihypertensive agentsOlmetec® andCalblock®, the broad-spectrum oral antibacterial agentCravit®, andArtist®, a treatment for high blood pressure, angina, and chronic cardiac insufficiency. In overseas markets, leading contributors to the net sales included bulk exports of the synthetic antibacterial levofloxacin and the antihypertensive agent olmesartan (sold asBenicar® in North America and asOlmetec® in Europe).
In terms of profitability, the Company invested in improving quality and technology levels while promoting cost-reduction measures. As a result, the total cost of sales amounted to ¥290.7 billion (cost-of-sales ratio: 31.4%); selling, general and administrative expenses totaled ¥480.4 billion, of which research and development expenses accounted for ¥158.7 billion. Operating income was ¥154.7 billion and ordinary income was ¥159.7 billion.
The Company took an charge of ¥9.8 billion related to the business integration and also posted an impairment loss of ¥5.2 billion for idle property, plant and equipment in the extraordinary losses. Net income for the year ended March 31, 2006 amounted to ¥87.6 billion.
(2) | Segment Information |
(Operating Segments) Net sales of each operating segment include only sales to outside customers.
1) | Pharmaceuticals |
Net sales in the pharmaceuticals segment totaled ¥784.6 billion, and operating income amounted to ¥148.1 billion.
Uncertainty plagued the business environment in the Japanese prescription drug market with an ongoing impact of government initiatives to reduce healthcare spending, including more affirmative measures to promote the use of generic medicines, and a downward revision in the National Health Insurance (NHI) drug reimbursement tariff implemented in April 2006 by an average of 6.7%.
Under these harsh market conditions, sales of prescription drugs in the Japanese market totaled ¥431.4 billion. Although sales of the antihyperlipidemic agentMevalotin® declined, several leading products recorded higher sales, including the broad-spectrum oral antibacterial agentCravit® and the antihypertensive agentOlmetec®. Sales revenue was also increased by a receipt of the milestone payments related to the approval on manufacturing and marketing ofPlavix®.
Sales of prescription drugs in overseas markets totaled ¥289.5 billion. Sales of bulk pravastatin, an antihyperlipidemic agent, declined due to its patent expiration in Europe and fierce competition in the United States. Sales of the antihypertensive agent olmesartan (marketed asBenicar® in North America and asOlmetec® in Europe) increased significantly, and bulk exports of the synthetic antibacterial levofloxacin also generated a steady growth. In addition, favorable currency translation arising from yen depreciation contributed to the higher sales amount.
Sales of healthcare drugs amounted to ¥27.9 billion. Depressed market conditions in Japan and the entry of rival products resulted in lower sales of leading products such as the hair growth agentsKaroyan Gush® andCystina C®, a vitamin complex. The decrease was offset by brisk sales ofLamisil AT®, the switch-OTC formulation of a prescription drug for treating athlete’s foot.
2) | Other |
Sales in the other segment totaled ¥141.2 billion, and operating income amounted to ¥6.1 billion.
The DAIICHI SANKYO Group plans to focus its resources on the pharmaceutical business. To this end, the Company plans to spin off the non-pharmaceutical businesses as independent enterprises, and thereby to realize greater operational efficiency.
(3) | Dividends |
As initially projected, the Company will pay a year-end dividend of ¥25 per share.
As a result, together with the share transfer payment of ¥25 per share paid in lien of interim dividends on December 12, 2005, the dividend payout ratio (consolidated) will be 40.5 % and the dividends on equity ratio (consolidated) will be 2.9 %.
(4) | R&D Activities |
R&D spending by the DAIICHI SANKYO Group, which was mostly incurred in the pharmaceutical segment, totaled ¥158.7 billion (17.1% of net sales).
The R&D activities of the DAIICHI SANKYO Group are directed at realizing the Company’s vision of being a “global pharma-innovator.” The Group focused its R&D investments in the strategic therapeutic areas with the aim of bringing a continuous stream of world-class innovative drugs to the market, while also trying to shorten the lead time to launch a new product.
As part of the ongoing integration process, the Company first moved to integrate the R&D decision-making bodies of Sankyo and Daiichi. By unifying R&D management into an integrated structure, the Company aims to accelerate those high-priority development projects that are positioned to become the driving force for future business growth.
In terms of the development status of key projects, on the Sankyo side a regulatory approval was obtained in January 2006 forLoxonin® poultice (generic name: loxoprofen sodium), a percutaneous absorption-type analgesic and anti-inflammatory preparation, and the launch of the product is planned for May 2006 in Japan. In addition, on the Daiichi side, a regulatory approval was obtained in January 2006 forUrief® (generic name: silodosin), an agent for treating dysuria that was jointly developed with Kissei Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd., and forPlavix® (generic name: clopidogrel sulfate), an antiplatelet agent. Both products were launched also in May 2006. Based on an agreement reached in September 2005 to transfer the marketing rights to the Sanofi-Aventis Group, Daiichi transferred the approval forPlavix® to their Japanese subsidiary Sanofi-Aventis K.K. in March 2006. The Company plans to continue collaborating with Sanofi-Aventis K.K. on the manufacture and promotion ofPlavix® in Japan.
In January 2006, Sankyo concluded an agreement with U.S.-based KAI Pharmaceuticals, Inc. for KAI-9803 (internal code: CS-9803), a treatment for myocardial infarction and cerebral infarction currently in Phase I/II clinical trials in the United States, in which the Company gained exclusive worldwide development, manufacturing and distribution rights for that drug. The joint development of the drug with KAI Pharmaceuticals is expected to continues.
Based on its ongoing reviews of the R&D projects, the DAIICHI SANKYO Group terminated its involvement in the development of two drug candidates, CS-505, a treatment for arteriosclerotic disorders developed in-house due to its failure to demonstrate sufficient clinical efficacy in Phase II trials in the United States; andFidarestat®,a diabetic neuropathy agent being jointly developed with Sanwa Kagaku Kenkyusho Co., Ltd. in order to concentrate its R&D resources on more strategic candiates.
The results of a large-scale clinical trial “MEGA Study” featuring a Sankyo drug, pravastatin (brand name: Mevalotin®), were presented in November 2005 at the annual American Heart Association (AHA) Scientific Sessions. This trial was a special study initiated in 1993 as a contract research project sponsored by the Ministry of Health, Labor and Welfare (the Ministry of Health and Welfare at the time) targeting approximately 8,000 mild to moderate hyperlipidemia patients with no past history of coronary heart disease. It represents the first large-scale randomized, comparative study in Japan to test the drug’s efficacy in primary prevention against cardiovascular disease over an average observation period of more than five years. The results of the study clearly underlined the significant potential clinical benefits of antihyperlipidemic therapy in Japan. Going forward, the Company plans to communicate this information accurately and appropriately to the healthcare professionals communities.

The DAIICHI SANKYO Group expects the business environment in the year ending March 31, 2007 to remain challenging in Japan and in overseas markets. The Company plans to leverage its combined marketing forces to boost market presence and thereby strengthen the earnings base. At the same time, the Company will continue to focus on realizing increased efficiency.
On the sales front, the Company faces a particularly tough challenge due to a number of factors that will significantly depress revenues, including the effect of NHI price cuts in Japan; the expiration of the U.S. patent on pravastatin; and the planned reorganization of the DAIICHI SANKYO Group’s non-pharmaceutical businesses. On the other hand, the Company will be able to reinforce sales and promotional efforts in prescription drug market in Japan by utilizing its superior sales force for core mainstay products such as the antihypertensiveOlmetec®, the antihyperlipidemic agentMevalotin® and the broad-spectrum oral antibacterial agentCravit®. Another key sales goal in Japan is a smooth market introduction forUrief®, an agent for relieving symptoms of dysuria associated with prostatic hypertrophy (launched in May 2006).
In overseas prescription drug markets, the two major sales-related objectives are the prioritized allocation of resources to expand sales of the antihypertensive agent olmesartan (marketed asBenicar® in North America and asOlmetec® in Europe) and a continued focus on building cooperative relationships with alliance partners to maximize sales of the bulk agents pravastatin (an antihyperlipidemic agent) and levofloxacin (a synthetic antibacterial), as well as other major products. In the healthcare drug business, by having divested and integrated the healthcare operations of Sankyo and Daiichi into one entity and having also acquired Zepharma Inc., the main focus will be on expanding and strengthening the business base. Taking into account all the above factors, the DAIICHI SANKYO Group projects a 6.6% decline in overall sales to ¥865.0 billion.
On the profit side, the Company plans to invest consistently in critical R&D areas, as well as investing in sales bases outside of Japan. The Company also expects business integration costs to be incurred to achieve the complete integration in April 2007. A variety of efforts are now underway across the entire DAIICHI SANKYO Group to maintain profitability and build operational efficiency by restructuring the infrastructures and business processes, and by reducing cost and containing expenses. The company will continue to work on making group companies in non-pharmaceutical business become completely independent companies outside of the Group by March 2007. For the year ending March 31, 2007, the DAIICHI SANKYO Group projects a 30.2% decline in operating income to ¥108.0 billion and a 28.0% decrease in ordinary income to ¥115.0 billion, and a 46.4% decrease in net income to ¥47 billion.
Earnings at overseas subsidiaries are calculated using the foreign exchange rates of ¥115 = U.S.$1.00 and ¥135 = € 1.00.
Regarding dividend payment in fiscal 2006, although the Company forecasts its earnings to decline, it plans to pay cash dividend of 60 yen per share, up 10 yen compared to the current fiscal year, based on its policy to increase a level of cash dividends at a stable rate to the mid-term targeted ratio of 5% on a cash dividend on shareholders’ equity (DOE).
4. Business Risks
The following section provides an overview of the principal risks that could affect the business results and financial condition of the DAIICHI SANKYO Group. Any forward-looking statements or projections contained in this overview represent the best judgment of DAIICHI SANKYO Group management as of the end of the last fiscal year (March 31, 2006).
(1) | Research and Development Risk |
Research and development of new drug candidates is an extremely costly process that requires many years to complete successfully, during which time there is a continual risk that R&D activities on a particular compound may be terminated due to failure to demonstrate expected clinical efficacy. In addition, any changes in the terms of agreements with other third-parties governing R&D-related alliances, or the cancellation thereof, can also materially affect the outcomes of R&D programs.
(2) | Manufacturing and Procurement Risk |
The DAIICHI SANKYO Group manufactures some of its products at its own production facilities using original technology, but is also dependent on specific suppliers for the supply of some finished products, raw materials and production intermediates. Any delay, suspension or termination of such manufacturing or supply activities for any reason could have a material impact on the Company’s business results and financial position. Manufacture of pharmaceuticals in Japan is subject to strict regulation as stipulated in the Pharmaceutical Affairs Law. Any quality assurance problem that necessitated a product recall could have a material adverse impact on the Company’s business results and financial position.
(3) | Sales-related Risk |
Any decline in sales due to the emergence of unanticipated side effects of a drug, or due to the entry of generic products into a sector following the expiration of a patent, and the introduction of a rival product within the same therapeutic area, could have a material impact on the Company’s business results and financial position. Any changes in the terms of sales or technology transfer agreements, or the expiration or cancellation thereof, could have a material impact on the Company’s business results and financial position.
(4) | Legal and Regulatory Risk |
Prescription drugs in Japan are subject to a variety of laws, regulations and ordinances. Trends in regulatory measures relating to the medical treatment systems and the national health insurance, most notably the NHI price revisions that occur every two years, could have a material impact on the Company’s business results and financial position. Similarly, sales of prescription drugs in overseas markets are also subject to a variety of legal and regulatory constraints.
(5) | Intellectual Property Risk |
The business activities of the DAIICHI SANKYO Group could be subject to restraint or dispute in an event of the infringement of the patents or other intellectual property rights of other parties. Conversely, infringement of the intellectual property rights of the DAIICHI SANKYO Group by other parties could lead to a legal action by the Company to protect such rights. In either case, the resulting outcome could have a material impact on the Company’s business results and financial position.
(6) | Environmental Risk |
Certain of the chemicals used in pharmaceutical research and manufacturing processes include substances with the potential to exert a negative impact on human health and natural ecosystems. All DAIICHI SANKYO Group facilities operate on a self-regulated basis according to the internal standards designed to prevent the occurrence of any air or water pollution caused by plant emissions. The DAIICHI SANKYO Group also takes a proactive stance on environmental protection, for instance by employing substitute chemicals wherever possible to reduce a potential environmental impact of chemical substances used. Notwithstanding those efforts, there could be a material impact on the Company’s business results and financial position, were the emissions of a DAIICHI SANKYO Group facility determined to have resulted in a serious environmental problem.
(7) | Litigation-related Risk |
Besides potential antitrust issues, the DAIICHI SANKYO Group could also face litigation of various forms concerning its business activities, such as lawsuits related to drug side effects, product liability or labor disputes. Such developments could have a material impact on the Company’s business results and financial position.
(8) | Currency Fluctuation Risk |
Fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates could be a financially adverse effect on the Company. The DAIICHI SANKYO Group conducts business, including production, sales, import and export activities, on a global basis, and foreign exchange movements could therefore have a material impact on the Company’s business results and financial position.
(9) | Other Risks |
Other risks besides those noted above that could have a material impact on the Company’s business results and financial position include the suspension of its business activities due to an earthquake or other large-scale natural disaster; the interruption of the Company’s computer systems due to a network-mediated virus or other causes; changes in stock prices and interest rates; and collection issues on accounts and loans receivable due to default by a customer or a country specific problem at the customer.

Item | Fiscal 2005 (Year ended March 31, 2006) | |||
1. Scope of consolidation | (1) Consolidated subsidiaries: 57
Principal consolidated subsidiaries:
In Japan
Sankyo Co., Ltd., Daiichi Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd., Daiichi Asubio Pharma. Co., Ltd., Daiichi Fine Chemical Co., Ltd., Daiichi Radioisotope Laboratories, Ltd., Daiichi Pure Chemicals Co., Ltd., Daiichi Pharmatech Co., Ltd., Wakodo Co., Ltd., Sankyo Agro Co., Ltd., Nippon Nyukazai Co., Ltd., Sankyo Lifetech Co., Ltd.
Overseas
Daiichi Sankyo, Inc. Luitpold Pharmaceuticals, Inc. Sankyo Pharma GmbH | |||
Nippon Daiya Valve Co., Ltd., Kyushu Sankyo Co., Ltd. and Sankyo Foods Co., Ltd., which were consolidated subsidiaries of Sankyo Co. Ltd. were excluded from the scope of consolidation because of the sale of their shares and other reasons. | ||||
In addition, Daiichi Pharmaceutical Co. Ltd. sold off a part of its investments in two subsidiaries, Tokyo Iyaku Shiki Co., Ltd. and Nishimura Shiki Co. Consequently, the Company has excluded the two companies from consolidation and now accounts for them under the equity method. Daiichi Fine Chemicals Inc. completed its liquidation procedures and is no longer consolidated. | ||||
Dismed AG, previously a consolidated subsidiary of Sankyo Co., Ltd., merged with another consolidated subsidiary, as did the following four former consolidated subsidiaries of Daiichi Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd.: Kansai Daiichi Service Co., Ltd.; Daiichi Technos Co., Ltd.; Daiichi Suntory Biomedical Research Ltd.; and Daiichi Pharmaceutical (China) Co., Ltd. On March 31, 2006, Sankyo Pharma, Inc., a consolidated subsidiary of Sankyo Co., Ltd., and Daiichi Pharma Holdings, Inc., Daiichi Pharmaceutical Corporation, and Daiichi Medical Research, Inc., the latter three former consolidated subsidiaries of Daiichi Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd., merged to form Daiichi Sankyo, Inc. | ||||
The Company also began consolidating Daiichi Sankyo Healthcare Co., Ltd., Sankyo Grundstücks GmbH & Co. and Object München AG, which was established during the year. | ||||
(2) Non-consolidated subsidiaries (including Sankyo Insurance Agency Co., Ltd., Godo Real Estate Co. Ltd. and Shanghai Sankyo Pharmaceuticals Co., Ltd.) are small and are not material when measured by the amounts of total assets, net sales, net income (based on the Company’s ownership percentage), retained earnings (based on the Company’s ownership percentage), and other indicators. They have therefore been excluded from the scope of consolidation.
| ||||
2. Application of the Equity Method | (1) Affiliated companies accounted for under the equity method: 5
Name of principal company: Sanofi Pasteur Daiichi Vaccine Co., Ltd | |||
(2) Net income (based on the Company’s equity percentage), retained earnings (based on the Company’s equity percentage), and other indicators of those non-consolidated subsidiaries (including Sankyo Insurance Agency Co., Ltd., Godo Real Estate Co. Ltd. and Shanghai Sankyo Pharmaceuticals Co., Ltd.) and affiliated companies (including Tokyo Yakugyo Kaikan Co., Ltd.) that have not been accounted for under the equity method are not material or significant to the Company as a whole. Therefore, these companies have not been accounted for under the equity method, but are rather reported in the Company’s investment account under the cost method. |
Item | Fiscal 2005 (Year ended March 31, 2006) | |||
3. Fiscal Year-End of Consolidated Subsidiaries | The fiscal year-end of certain consolidated subsidiaries is December 31. In preparing the consolidated financial statements, the Company uses the financial statements of these companies as of their fiscal year-end. For major intervening transactions that occurred between the fiscal year-end of those companies and March 31, appropriate adjustments have been made in the consolidated financial statements. | |||
Name of subsidiaries that have fiscal year-end on December 31: Luitpoid Pharmaceuticals, Inc., Daiichi Asubio Pharmaceuticals, Inc., Sankyo Pharma GmbH and its 12 subsidiaries as well as Daiichi Pharmaceutical (Beijing) Co., Ltd. and 5 other subsidiaries. | ||||
Following its merger with Daiichi Pharma Holdings, Inc. et al, Sankyo Pharma, Inc. changed its fiscal-year end to March 31. However, for the current fiscal year, the Company consolidated Sankyo Pharma’s financial statements as of December 31, 2005.
| ||||
4. Accounting for Business Combination | (1) The Company was established through a joint transfer of shares by Sankyo and Daiichi (the wholly owned subsidiaries) and became the parent company of the wholly owned subsidiaries. The Company accounted for this business combination under the pooling of interests method in accordance with “Accounting for Business Combinations in the Establishment of Parent-Subsidiary Relationship Using the Exchange of Shares and the Transfer of Shares (Research Report No. 6 of the Accounting Systems Committee of the Japanese Institute of Certified Public Accountants).
(2) As a result of the comprehensive review of the wholly owned subsidiaries’ business operations, financial conditions, and management performance, the Company has determined that the pooling of interests accounting is appropriate for this business combination, since the wholly owned subsidiaries continue jointly to share the risks and rewards of the Daiichi Sankyo group. |

Item | Fiscal 2005 (Year ended March 31, 2006) | |
(d) Methods of Accounting for Significant Allowances | (1) Allowance for Doubtful Accounts
The Company covers the risk of credit losses from potential customer defaults by providing for this allowance. For normal accounts, the allowance is computed on the basis of the historical default rates. For specific over-due accounts, the allowance is based on individual account-by-account estimates of the amounts that may not be recoverable.
(2) Allowance for Sales Returns
To prepare for losses on potential returns of products after the end of the fiscal year, the Company’s certain subsidiaries provide for an amount equal to the sum of gross profits and inventory losses on such returned products, based on its estimate of possible sales returns.
For the current fiscal year, the provision for this allowance of ¥268 million is included in cost of sales.
(3) Allowance for Sales Rebates
To prepare for future sales rebates, the Company’s certain subsidiaries provide for this allowance calculated by multiplying an estimated sales rebate percentage for the fiscal year by the amounts of accounts receivable from and inventories held by wholesalers at the end of the fiscal year.
(4) Accrued Retirement and Severance Benefits
To prepare for future payments of employee retirement severance benefit, the Company’s domestic consolidated subsidiaries provide for an amount incurred by the fiscal year-end based on estimated projected benefit obligations and plan assets at the end of the fiscal year.
Certain overseas consolidated subsidiaries provide for such accruals in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the countries of their domicile.
Prior service cost is amortized under the straight-line method over a period of 5 to 10 years, which is equal to or less than the estimated average remaining years of service of the eligible employees at the time such prior year service cost was incurred.
Actuarial gains and losses are amortized under the straight-line method, beginning in the fiscal year following the year in which the gain or loss was initially measured, over a period of 5 to 10 years, which is equal to or less than the average remaining years of service of the eligible employees at the time such actuarial gain or loss occurred, except for Sankyo which recognizes actuarial gains or losses immediately as they occur.
(Supplemental Information)
Accompanying the enactment of the Defined Benefit Pension Plan Law, Daiichi, a consolidated subsidiary, received an approval of exemption from the Minister of Health, Labour and Welfare, on January 1, 2005, from the obligations for pension payment liabilities related to past employee service with respect to the substitutional portion of its Employees’ Pension Fund, and on May 31, 2005, a payment was made to transfer the plan assets related to the substitutional portion to the government based on the minimum liability.
For the current fiscal year, as a result of this return of the plan assets, the Company recognized an extraordinary gain of ¥163 million.
(5) Accrued Directors’ Retirement and Severance Benefits
To prepare for payments of directors’ retirement and severance benefits, the Company’s domestic consolidated subsidiaries provide for an amount equal to the total benefits that would have become payable at the end of the fiscal year, in accordance with the internal policies, had all directors resigned voluntarily.
Certain of the Company’s overseas consolidated subsidiaries record a provision for an amount incurred by the end of the fiscal year.
(6) Allowance for Contingent Losses
To prepare for possible future contingent losses, the Company provides an accrual for an amount of reasonably possible losses, by examining individual risks on a case by case basis. |
Item | Fiscal 2005 (Year ended March 31, 2006) | |
(7) Accrued soil remediation costs
Based on a survey completed on certain land for the scope of soil remediation, Sankyo, a consolidated subsidiary, has recognized a provision for soil remediation at an estimated amount of cleanup costs that Sankyo will reasonably incur for the fiscal year ending March 31, 2007 and thereafter. | ||
(e) Translation of Assets and Liabilities Denominated in Foreign Currencies into Yen | Receivables and payables denominated in foreign currencies are converted into yen amounts at the rates of exchange in effect at the balance sheet date, with resulting translation gains or losses recognized currently in earnings. The assets and liabilities of overseas consolidated subsidiaries are converted into yen amounts at the rates of exchange in effect at their balance sheet dates, while income and expenses are converted into yen amounts at the average exchange rates in effect over the respective periods, with resulting translation gains and losses recorded in a component of shareholders’ equity under translation adjustments or in the minority interests section of the balance sheet. | |
(f) Accounting for Significant Lease Transactions | Financing leases are accounted for using the same accounting method applied to operating leases, with the exception of those financing leases in which the legal title of the underlying property is transferred from the lessor to the lessee. | |
(g) Significant Hedge Accounting Methods | (1) Hedge Accounting Methods
The Company employs the deferred hedge method of accounting. Foreign exchange forward contracts that meet certain criteria are accounted as a hedge of underlying assets and liabilities. Interest rate swaps that meet certain hedge criteria and whose notional amounts, interest payments and maturities match with those of the hedged borrowings are accounted for by the special short-cut method, as if the interest rates of the interest rate swaps had been originally applied to the underlying borrowings.
(2) Hedging Instruments and Hedged Items
Hedging instruments: Foreign exchange forward contracts, and interest rate swaps
Hedged items: Accounts payable and receivable and forecasted transactions denominated in foreign currencies, and loans
(3) Hedge Policy
Certain consolidated subsidiaries hedge foreign exchange rate fluctuation risks relating to imports and exports and interest rate risks related to variable rate borrowings. The Company and its consolidated subsidiaries do not enter into speculative derivative transactions.
(4) Methods of Assessing Hedge Effectiveness
The hedge effectiveness of foreign exchange forward contracts as a hedge has not been assessed, as the principal terms of the hedging instruments are the same as those of the hedged items. The effectiveness of interest rate swaps accounted for by the special short-cut method has also not been assessed, as permitted under the standard. | |
(h) Accounting for Consumption Tax | The tax-exclusion (net of tax) method is used to account for the national and local consumption taxes. | |
5. Valuation Method for Assets and Liabilities of Subsidiaries Acquired in Business Combination | All assets and liabilities of an acquired business that becomes a consolidated subsidiary are valued on a full fair value basis without taking into account minority interests’ share in such assets and liabilities. | |
6. Amortization of Goodwill | Goodwill is being amortized mainly over a period of five years. However, if the amount is immaterial, it is written off currently in earnings. | |
7. Appropriation of Retained Earnings | The consolidated statement of retained earnings reflects the appropriation of retained earnings approved during the fiscal year. | |
8. Cash and Cash Equivalent in the Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows | Cash and cash equivalents in the consolidated statement of cash flows consist of: cash on hand, deposits which can be withdrawn upon demand, and highly liquid short-term investments that are easily convertible into cash with little risk of fluctuation in value, and that mature within three months of their dates of acquisition. |

Because the above asset groups are idle and have uncertain prospects for future utilization, their book values have been written down to a recoverable amount, and such reductions in the mount of ¥5,253 million were recorded as a loss on impairment in the extraordinary losses.
The impairment loss consisted of ¥2,442 million associated with buildings and structures, ¥1,888 million associated with machinery, equipment and vehicles, ¥901 million associated with land and ¥20 million associated with other assets.
The recoverable amount of an assets group is an estimated net realizable value, which was obtained based on third-party appraisal or the valuation amount for real estate tax purpose, with reasonable adjustments.
