  • Net sales: Down 12.9% on a steep decline in royalty income, despite higher sales of domestic pharmaceuticals and overseas pharmaceuticals.

  • Income: Down sharply due to the decrease in royalty income.

  • Although 1Q income fell below the full-year forecast of consolidated financial results, no revision to the forecast because of slippage of shipments of overseas pharmaceuticals into 2Q and anticipated sales of investment securities.
