Company announcement

“OlainFarm” Sets Another Sales and Profits
Record
OlainFarm’s unaudited profit and loss statement for the first half
of 2013 shows that the company had a turnover of 24.3 million lats
(34.6 million euros). It is 7% more than in the same period last
year. Consequently, the first half of 2013 is the most successful
in terms of turnover of “OlainFarm”
history.
"In the first
half of the year “OlainFarm” has managed to achieve yet another
sales record. We plan to retain this acceleration and increase it,
because the seasonality affects the pharmaceutical industry in a
way that the second half of the year is more successful.
Strategically we will continue to develop in the same direction -
introduce new products, will acquire and strengthen our presence in
the pharmaceutical markets. This will be achieved by closer
co-operation with other manufacturers for product distribution in
the CIS and other countries. Simultaneously we are expanding the
"Latvijas aptieka” network and we are actively engaging in medical
device and food supplements sub segment that is possible after
“OlainFarm” acquired the stocks of “Silvanols”,"
says Valerijs Maligins, Chairman of OlainFarm’s
Board.
“OlainFarm”
profit after tax
during this period was 3.63 million lats (5.16 million euros).
Particularly successful and thus also the most profitable 2nd
quarter in company’s history has been the 2nd quarter of 2013, in
which the net profit reached 1.68 million lats (2.39 million
euros),
which is an increase by almost 30% compared to
the same period last year.
In the first
half of 2013 there have been 18 completed registrations of
“OlainFarm” products in 7 different countries, as well as started
the registration processes in Turkey and Mongolia. The work also
continues on a number of new drug form developments including
clinical studies of injectible form of Kapikor
(Olvazol).
“OlainFarm” in
May 2013, received a discount of 5,21 million lats to the corporate
income tax (CIT) for long term investments
programme.
In the first
half of 2013 “OlainFarm” became the main stockholder in the third
biggest Latvian pharmaceutical company “Silvanols” by acquiring
70,88% stock.
Sales volumes
continued to grow in all key business markets, except Ukraine,
where it fell by 63% compared to the first half of 2012. This is
due to the fact that AS "OlainFarm" overshipped products to Ukraine
in the 4th quarter of 2012, resulting in sales to Ukraine in 2013
being smaller than usual. The most rapid growth in the first half
of 2013 was achieved in The Netherlands where sales increased by
1982%. In Canada, it has almost tripled, while in Belarus sales
increased by 33% Latvia by 32% and Russia by 26%. “OlainFarm’s”
