Any investment in our common stock or ADSs involves risk. Investors should carefully consider, in light of their own financial circumstances and investment objectives, the following risks before making an investment decision with respect to our common stock or ADSs. If any of the following risks actually occurs, it could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations, and future prospects, and the market value of our common stock or ADSs may be adversely affected.
The risks discussed below are those that we believe are material, but these risks and uncertainties may not be the only risks that we face. Additional risks that are not known to us at this time, or that are currently believed to be not material, could also have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations, future prospects and the market value of our common stock or ADSs.
Risks Relating to the Shire Acquisition
We may fail to realize the anticipated benefits of the Shire Acquisition and expect to continue to record significant expenses related to it.
On January 8, 2019, we acquired the entire issued and to-be-issued share capital of Shire pursuant to a Scheme of Arrangement under the laws of Jersey (the “Shire Acquisition”). The success of the Shire Acquisition depends on our ability to realize the anticipated growth opportunities and synergies leading to cost savings we expect from combining the companies' businesses. We will need to continue to devote significant time and resources to the reorganization of our personnel structure, enhancement of cost-efficiency and the strengthening of management and operational functions in order to realize the anticipated synergies of the Shire Acquisition. We expect to incur non-recurring cash costs totaling approximately $3.0 billion in connection with the integration of Shire in the first three fiscal years following the completion of the Shire Acquisition.
Furthermore, in connection with the Shire Acquisition and the application of our inventory policies to the acquired businesses, we recognized significant non-cash expenses relating to the unwinding of fair value adjustments to inventory as a component of cost of sales in the fiscal year ended March 31, 2019 and expect that such expenses will increase in future fiscal years. We also recorded significant intangible assets in connection with the Shire Acquisition and, as a result, amortization and impairment losses increased significantly in the fiscal year ended March 31, 2019, and are expected to continue to increase in the fiscal year ending March 31, 2020.
As a result of the non-recurring cash costs in connection with the integration of Shire, the continued expenses relating to the unwinding of fair value adjustments to inventory, the increase in amortization and impairment losses on certain intangible assets and ongoing financial expenses (such as interest expenses) related to the Shire Acquisition, we expect to record a net loss in the fiscal year ending March 31, 2020. We expect certain of these expenses to continue into the fiscal year ending March 31, 2021.
We recorded significant amounts of goodwill in connection with the Shire Acquisition, and, if we are unable to achieve the anticipated benefits of this acquisition, we could be required to recognize significant impairment losses related to such goodwill and to intangible assets recorded in connection with the acquisition, potentially up to their full value.
The expected synergies of the Shire Acquisition and the projected cash costs necessary to achieve the synergies may be affected by changes in the overall economic, political and regulatory environment, including applicable tax regimes and fluctuations in foreign exchange rates, and the realization of the other risks relating to our business described herein. Furthermore, the integration process may divert management’s attention from other strategic opportunities and the day-to-day operation of our business. If we are not able to successfully manage the integration process and create a unified business culture, the anticipated benefits of the acquisition and subsequent integration may not be realized fully or at all or may take longer or prove more costly to realize than expected.
Although integration activities are underway, we may face significant challenges in integrating the organizations, business cultures, procedures and operations of Takeda and Shire, including:
integrating personnel, operations and systems, such as research and development, manufacturing, distribution, marketing and promotional activities and information technology systems, while maintaining focus on selling and promoting existing and newly acquired or produced products;
inability to realize expected benefits from newly acquired or produced products, including pipeline products under development;
coordinating and integrating geographically dispersed organizations;
changes or conflicts in the standards, controls, procedures and accounting and other policies, as well as business cultures and compensation structures;
the need to manage, train and integrate Shire’s personnel, who may have limited experience with the respective companies’ business lines and products, and to retain existing employees, particularly high-skilled or other key employees and senior members of the management team;
maintaining and growing Shire’s customer base;
incremental tax exposure based on the differences in our corporate structure and Shire’s, including the exposure of each of the legacy Takeda businesses and the legacy Shire businesses to new tax regimes, particularly, in the case of Shire, to Japanese tax rules;
maintaining business relationships with suppliers, third-party alliance partners and other key counterparties; and
inefficiencies associated with the integration of the operations of the two companies.
Additionally, because we issued a significant number of additional shares of our common stock as part of the consideration for the Shire Acquisition, a failure to achieve the anticipated benefits of the Shire Acquisition could negatively affect our earnings per share.
We are subject to additional risks arising from the acquired businesses of Shire, particularly its plasma-derived and rare disease therapies, and from the legal, regulatory and tax regimes that Shire operated under.
We have assumed the risks related to Shire’s businesses, which differ from, or will amplify, certain risks we faced prior to the Shire Acquisition. For example, markets outside Japan, particularly the United States, represent a larger portion of the legacy Shire business than ours, and our overall exposure to these markets has increased following the completion of the Shire Acquisition. Additionally, the acquired Shire businesses include new areas for us, such as rare diseases and plasma-derived therapies. Plasma-derived therapies, in particular, present significant challenges relating to the sourcing and transportation of plasma, and production and distribution of plasma-derived products, all of which are complex and subject to extensive regulation, in addition to being capital intensive. If we are unable to manage this new business effectively, we may lose market share or customer confidence, be required to record charges related to idle capacity or impairment on facilities or take other actions which could materially and adversely affect the plasma-derived therapies business. Moreover, sales for the rare disease portfolio we acquired as part of the Shire Acquisition are particularly concentrated among small groups of customers, and we may be disproportionately affected by changes in their purchasing patterns, including if we are unable to appropriately manage this business.
Furthermore, we have become subject to additional legal, regulatory and tax regimes applicable to the acquired businesses of Shire, many of which are complex and could subject us to additional risks or liabilities. For example, the legacy Shire business is subject to evolving and complex tax laws in various jurisdictions and Shire routinely obtained advice on tax matters, including the tax treatment of the break fee of $1.635 billion it received in connection with the terminated offer to acquire Shire made by AbbVie, Inc. in 2014. In this respect, the Irish Revenue issued an assessment received by Shire on November 28, 2018 for €398 million on the basis that the break fee was a taxable capital gain. Based on continued advice that no tax liability should arise from the break fee, Shire has appealed this assessment and the appeals process is continuing. However, the appeal may not be successful and at this time the outcome is unknown. In addition, in connection with its acquisition of Baxalta Incorporated (“Baxalta”) in 2016, Shire agreed to indemnify Baxter International Inc., its affiliates and each of their respective officers, directors and employees against certain tax-related losses if the merger of Baxalta and Shire causes the prior spin-off of Baxalta by Baxter and related transactions to fail to qualify as tax-free. Although Shire received an opinion of tax counsel that the merger will not cause such prior transactions to fail to qualify as tax-free, such opinion is not binding on the tax authorities and the potential tax indemnification obligations are not limited in amount.
If we are unable to effectively manage these additional risks, our business, results of operations or financial conditions could be materially and adversely affected.
We have substantial debt, including a significant amount incurred in connection with the Shire Acquisition, which may limit our ability to execute our business strategy, refinance existing debt or incur new debt, and if we are unable to meet our goals for deleveraging, we could be at a greater risk of a downgrade of our credit ratings.
Our consolidated bonds and loans were ¥5,751.0 billion as of March 31, 2019, the majority of which was incurred in connection with the Shire Acquisition or represents indebtedness of Shire now included on our consolidated balance sheet. This significant amount of aggregate debt and the substantial amount of cash required for payments of interest and principal could adversely affect our liquidity. In particular, if we are unable to realize the anticipated benefits of the Shire Acquisition, we may not be able to service our indebtedness. We are also required to comply with certain covenants within various financing arrangements and violations of such covenants may require the acceleration and immediate repayment of the indebtedness, which may in turn have a material adverse effect on our financial condition. In particular, under the Loan Agreement with Japan Bank for International Cooperation (“JBIC”) that we entered into in December 2018 (the "JBIC Loan") for an aggregate principal amount of $3.7 billion, our profit before tax must not be negative for two consecutive years. As discussed above, we expect to continue to record significant expenses related to the Shire Acquisition and we expect certain of these costs to continue in the fiscal years ending March 31, 2020 and 2021. We may fail to realize the anticipated benefits of the Shire Acquisition, and expect to continue to record significant expenses related to it. If we record a net loss before tax in both of the fiscal years ending March 31, 2020 and 2021, and are unable to negotiate a waiver or otherwise prevent the acceleration of amounts due under the JBIC Loan, the amounts due thereunder and under our other financing arrangements containing cross-default provisions may become immediately due and payable, thus requiring us to refinance such debt which may result in increased interest costs. Furthermore, we may desire to or be required from time to time to incur additional borrowings, including in relation to the repayment or refinancing any of the Term Loan Credit Agreement that we entered into on June 8, 2018 (the “Term Loan Credit Agreement”) for an aggregate principal amount of $7.5 billion, the JBIC Loan, or any other indebtedness incurred in connection with the Shire Acquisition, such as the U.S. dollar and Euro-denominated bonds issued in November 2018 or the subordinated hybrid bonds issued in June 2019, or Shire’s previously existing indebtedness. Our ability to arrange a re-financing will depend on our financial position and performance, prevailing market conditions and other factors beyond our control. Moreover, if we decide to refinance indebtedness as it comes due, our overall leverage may not necessarily decrease.
We aim to decrease our leverage, with a target ratio of net debt to Adjusted EBITDA(1) of 2x or less within three to five years following the January 2019 completion of the Shire Acquisition and we have begun the process of disposal of certain non-core assets to generate cash in order to increase the pace of deleveraging. However, we may not be able to meet these goals if we are unable to sufficiently decrease our overall indebtedness, or if we are unable to achieve sufficient increases in earnings to offset our increased levels of debt. We may also not be successful in selecting non-core assets for disposal, and disposals may affect our business, financial condition or results of operations adversely, leading to larger-than-expected decreases in earnings. We may also not be able to dispose of such assets successfully in a manner that allows us to meet our goals or at all.
______________
(1) We define EBITDA as net profit before income tax expenses, depreciation and amortization and net interest expense. We define Adjusted EBITDA as EBITDA further adjusted to exclude impairment losses, other operating expenses and income (excluding depreciation and amortization), finance expenses and income (excluding net interest expense), our share of loss from investments accounted for under the equity method and other items that management believes are unrelated to our core operations such as purchase accounting effects and transaction related costs.
If we are unable to decrease our leverage, we may be unable to improve our credit ratings or be subject to ratings downgrades or other adverse actions by third-party ratings agencies. In May 2018, Moody’s (Japan) K.K. lowered our credit rating to A2 from A1, reflecting its expectations for our overall levels of leverage in the future, even in the absence of the Shire Acquisition, and in December 2018 Moody’s (Japan) K.K. further lowered our credit rating to Baa2, reflecting the increase in our ratio of net debt to Adjusted EBITDA after giving effect to the Shire Acquisition. In February 2019, S&P Global Ratings downgraded our ratings to BBB+, also in light of our aggregate debt and earnings profile following the Shire Acquisition. If we are unable to improve our credit ratings or if our credit ratings are further downgraded, it may negatively influence the terms for the refinancing of our existing debt or new borrowings on terms that we would consider to be commercially reasonable.
Risks Relating to Our Business
We may fail to realize the anticipated benefits of the Shire Acquisition and expect to continue to record significant expenses related to it.
On January 8, 2019, we acquired the entire issued and to-be-issued share capital of Shire pursuant to a Scheme of Arrangement under the laws of Jersey (the “Shire Acquisition”). The ultimate success of the Shire Acquisition depends on our ability to realize the anticipated growth opportunities and synergies leading to cost savings we expect from combining the companies’ businesses. We continue to devote significant time and resources to the reorganization of our personnel structure, enhancement of cost-efficiency and the strengthening of management and operational functions in order to realize the anticipated synergies of the Shire Acquisition. In connection with the integration of Shire, we incurred non-recurring cash costs totaling 1.85 billion USD in the fiscal year ended March 31, 2020 and expect to incur an additional 1.15 billion USD through the fiscal year ending March 31, 2022.
Furthermore, in connection with the Shire Acquisition, we recognized significant non-cash expenses relating to the unwinding of fair value adjustments to inventory as a component of cost of sales in the fiscal years ended March 31, 2019 and 2020 and expect that we will continue to incur a certain level of such expenses in future fiscal years. We also recorded significant intangible assets in connection with the Shire Acquisition and, as a result, amortization increased significantly in the fiscal years ended March 31, 2019 and 2020 and we expect to continue to record significant amounts of amortization expense in future fiscal years.
We recorded significant amounts of goodwill in connection with the Shire Acquisition, and, if we are unable to achieve the anticipated benefits of this acquisition, we could be required to recognize significant impairment losses related to such goodwill and to intangible assets recorded in connection with the acquisition, potentially up to their full value.
The expected synergies of the Shire Acquisition and the projected cash costs necessary to achieve the synergies may be affected by changes in the overall economic, political and regulatory environment, including applicable tax regimes and fluctuations in foreign exchange rates, and the realization of the other risks relating to our business described herein. Furthermore, the integration process may divert management’s attention from other strategic opportunities and the day-to-day operation of our business. If we are not able to successfully manage the integration process, the anticipated benefits of the acquisition and subsequent integration may not be realized fully or at all or may take longer or prove more costly to realize than expected.
Although integration activities are underway, we may face significant challenges in integrating the organizations, business cultures, procedures and operations of Takeda and Shire, including:
integrating operations and systems, such as research and development, manufacturing, distribution, marketing and promotional activities and information technology systems, while maintaining focus on selling and promoting existing and newly acquired or produced products;
inability to realize expected benefits from newly acquired or produced products, including pipeline products under development;
coordinating and integrating geographically dispersed organizations;
changes or conflicts in the standards, controls, procedures and accounting and other policies, as well as business cultures and compensation structures;
maintaining and growing Shire’s customer base;
incremental tax exposure based on the differences in our corporate structure and Shire’s, including the exposure of each of the legacy Takeda businesses and the legacy Shire businesses to new tax regimes, particularly, in the case of Shire, to Japanese tax rules;
maintaining business relationships with suppliers, third-party alliance partners and other key counterparties; and
inefficiencies associated with the integration of the operations of the two companies.
Additionally, because we issued a significant number of additional shares of our common stock as part of the consideration for the Shire Acquisition, a failure to achieve the anticipated benefits of the Shire Acquisition could negatively affect our earnings per share.
We have substantial debt, including a significant amount incurred in connection with the Shire Acquisition, which may limit our ability to execute our business strategy, refinance existing debt or incur new debt, and if we are unable to meet our goals for deleveraging, we could be at a greater risk of a downgrade of our credit ratings.
Our consolidated bonds and loans were 5,093.3 billion JPY as of March 31, 2020, the majority of which was incurred in connection with the Shire Acquisition or represents indebtedness of Shire now included on our consolidated statements of financial position. This significant amount of aggregate debt and the substantial amount of cash required for payments of interest and principal could adversely affect our liquidity. In particular, if we are unable to realize the anticipated benefits of the Shire Acquisition, we may not be able to service our indebtedness. We are also required to comply
with certain covenants within various financing arrangements and violations of such covenants may require the acceleration and immediate repayment of the indebtedness, which may in turn have a material adverse effect on our financial condition. Furthermore, we may desire to or be required from time to time to incur additional borrowings, including in relation to the repayment or refinancing any of our currently outstanding indebtedness. Our ability to arrange a re-financing will depend on our financial position and performance, prevailing market conditions and other factors beyond our control. Moreover, if we decide to refinance indebtedness as it comes due, our overall leverage may not necessarily decrease.
We have set goals to reduce the extent of leverage, and we are disposing certain non-core assets to generate cash in order to increase the pace of deleveraging. However, we may not be able to meet our goals if we are unable to sufficiently decrease our overall indebtedness, or if we are unable to achieve sufficient increases in earnings to offset our increased levels of debt. We may also not be successful in selecting non-core assets for disposal, and disposals may affect our business, financial condition or results of operations adversely, leading to larger-than-expected decreases in earnings. We may also not be able to dispose of such assets successfully in a manner that allows us to meet our goals or at all.
Credit rating agencies routinely evaluate our business, and their ratings are based on a number of factors, including our leverage, ability to generate cash flows, overall financial strength and diversification, as well as other factors beyond our control, such as the state of the global economy and our industry generally. For example, if we are unable to decrease our leverage, we may be unable to improve our credit ratings or be subject to ratings downgrades or other adverse actions by third-party ratings agencies. While our credit ratings remain investment grade, each rating agency reviews its ratings periodically, and there is no assurance that the current credit ratings assigned to us will not be downgraded. A downgrade of our credit ratings may materially and adversely affect the market prices of our equity and debt securities, the interest rates at which our borrowings are made and debt securities are issued, and fees charged to us by current or future lenders. This could make it significantly more costly for us to borrow money, to issue debt securities and to raise certain other types of capital and/or complete additional financings. Such negative credit ratings actions and the underlying reasons for such actions could materially and adversely affect our cash flows, results of operations and financial condition and the market price of, and our ability to pay the principal of and interest on, our debt securities.
Research and development of pharmaceutical products are expensive and subject to significant uncertainties, and we may be unsuccessful in bringing commercially successful products to market or recouping development costs.
Our ability to offset the effects of losses of exclusivity in our existing products and to continue to grow our business depends significantly on the success of our research and development activities in identifying, developing and successfully commercializing new products in a timely and cost-effective manner. To accomplish this, we commit substantial efforts, funds and other resources to research and development, both in-house and through collaborations with third parties. However, these research and development programs are expensive and involve intensive preclinical evaluation and clinical trials in connection with a highly complex and lengthy regulatory approval process. See “—IfWe discuss regulatory considerations below under “If we fail to comply with government regulations over product development, regulatory approvals and reimbursement requirements, our business could be adversely affected.” The research and development process for a new pharmaceutical product also requires us to attract and retain sufficient numbers of highly-skilled employees and can take up to 10 years to 15 years or longer from discovery to commercial launch. Moreover, even if we successfully develop and bring to market new products, there is only a limited available patent life in which to recoup these development costs.
During each stage of the approval process and post-approval life cycle of our products, there is a substantial risk that we will encounter serious obstacles, including the following:
unfavorable results from preclinical testing of a new compound;
difficulty in enrolling patients in clinical trials, or delays or clinical trial holds at clinical trial sites;
delays in completing formulation and other testing and work necessary to support an application for regulatory approval;
adverse reactions to the product candidate or indications of other safety concerns;
insufficient clinical trial data to support the safety or efficacy of the product candidate;
difficulty or delays in obtaining all necessary regulatory approvals in each jurisdiction where we propose to market such products;
failure to bring a product to market prior to a competitor, or to develop a product sufficiently differentiated from a competing product to achieve significant market share;
difficulty in obtaining reimbursement at satisfactory rates for our approved products from governments and insurers;
difficulty in obtaining regulatory approval for additional indications;
failure to enter into or implement successful alliances for the development and/or commercialization of products;
inability to manufacture sufficient quantities of a product candidate for development or commercialization activities in a timely or cost-efficient manner; and
the degree of market acceptance of any approved product candidate by the medical community, including physicians, healthcare professionals and patients, will depend on a number of factors, including relative convenience and ease of administration, the prevalence and severity of any adverse reactions, availability of alternative treatments, pricing and our sales and marketing strategy.
In addition, to the extent that new regulations raise the costs of obtaining and maintaining product authorizations or limit the economic value of a new product to its originator, our profitability and growth prospects could be diminished. Development of new and innovative products can also require the use of emerging platforms and technologies for which regulations either do not yet exist or are under development or modification. This may lead to greater uncertainty and risk in establishing the necessary data for approvals to conduct clinical trials and/or receiving marketing approvals.
As a result of the foregoing or other factors, we may decide to abandon the development of potential pipeline products in which we have invested significant resources, even where the product is in the late stages of development. Moreover, there can also be no assurance that we will be successful in bringing new products to market, marketing them, achieving sufficient acceptance thereof and recouping our investments in their development. For example, our pipeline compounds may not receive regulatory approval, become commercially successful or achieve satisfactory rates of reimbursement. Additionally, products approved for use and successfully marketed in one market may be unable to obtain regulatory approval, become
commercially successful or achieve satisfactory rates of reimbursement in other markets. As a result, we may be unable to earn returns on investments that we originally anticipated or at all, or may be forced to revise our research and development strategy, and our business, financial condition and results of operations could be materially and adversely affected.
If we fail to comply with government regulations over product development, regulatory approvals and reimbursement requirements, our business could be adversely affected.
Obtaining marketing approval for pharmaceutical products is a lengthy, complex and highly regulated process that requires intensive preclinical and clinical data, and the approval process can vary significantly depending on the regulatory authority. Relevant health authorities may, at the time of the filing of the application for a marketing authorization, or later during their review, impose requirements that can evolve over time, including requiring additional clinical trials, and such authorities may delay or refuse to grant approval. Even where we have obtained marketing approval for a product in one or more major markets, we may need to invest significant time and resources in applying for approval in other markets, and there is no assurance that we will be able to obtain such approval. In recent years, health authorities have become increasingly focused on product safety and on the risk/benefit profile of pharmaceutical products, which could lead to more burdensome and costly approval processes and negatively affect our ability to obtain regulatory approval for products under development. For example, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (the “FDA”), the European Medicines Agency (the “EMA”), and the Pharmaceuticals and Medical Devices Agency (the “PMDA”) in Japan have been implementing strict requirements for approval, particularly in terms of the volume of data needed to demonstrate a product’s efficacy and safety.
Even after regulatory approval is obtained, marketed products are subject to various post-approval requirements, including continual review, risk evaluations, comparative effectiveness studies and, in some cases, requirements to conduct post-approval clinical trials to gather additional safety and other data. Regulatory authorities in many countries have worked to enhance post-approval monitoring in recent years, which has increased post-approval regulatory burdens. Post-regulatory approval reviews and data analyses can lead to the issuance of recommendations by government agencies, health professional and patients or other specialized organizations, health professionals or patients regarding the use of products; forproducts. For example, such recommendations could include a recommendationrequest to limit the patient population of a drug’s indication, the imposition of marketing restrictions, including changes in product labeling, or the suspension or withdrawal of the product. Any such action canrecommendation, whether implemented or not, could result in reductions in sales volume and/or new or increased concerns about the adverse reactions or efficacy of a product. These substantial regulatory requirements have, over time, increased the costs associated with maintaining regulatory approvals and achieving reimbursement for our products.
If the regulatory approval process or post-approval, reimbursement, monitoring or other requirements become significantly more burdensome in any of our major markets, we could become subject to increased costs and may be unable to obtain or maintain approval to market our products. Any such adverse changes could materially and adversely affect our business, results of operations or financial condition.
If we fail to comply with laws and regulations governing the sales and marketing of our products, our business could be adversely affected.
We engage in various marketing, promotional and educational activities pertaining to, as well as the sale of, pharmaceutical products in a number of jurisdictions around the world. The promotion, marketing and sale of pharmaceutical products and medical devices is highly regulated and the sales and marketing practices of market participants such as us have been subject to increasing supervision by governmental authorities, and we believe that this trend will continue.
For example, in the United States,U.S., our sales and marketing activities are monitored by a number of regulatory authorities and law enforcement agencies, including the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (the “HHS”), the FDA, the U.S. Department of Justice, the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC"“SEC”) and the Drug Enforcement Administration (the “DEA”). These authorities and agencies and their equivalents in other countries have broad authority to investigate market participants for potential violations of laws relating to the sale, marketing and promotion of pharmaceutical products and medical devices, including the False Claims Act, the Anti-Kickback Statute, the United Kingdom (the “UK”) Bribery Act of 2010 and the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act, among others, for alleged improper conduct, including corrupt payments to government officials, improper payments to medical professionals, off-label marketing of pharmaceutical products and medical devices, and the submission of false claims for reimbursement by the federal government. Healthcare companies may also be subject to enforcement actions or prosecution for such improper conduct. Any inquiries or investigations into the operations of, or enforcement or other regulatory action against, us by such authorities could result in significant defense costs, fines, penalties and injunctive or administrative remedies, distract management to the detriment of the business, result in the exclusion of certain products, or us as a whole, from government reimbursement programs or subject us to regulatory controls or government monitoring of its activities in the future. We are also subject to certain ongoing investigations by governmental agencies.
Government policies and other pressures to reduce medical costs could have an adverse effect on sales of our pharmaceutical products.
We are subject to governmental regulations mandating price controls in various countries in which we operate. The growth of overall healthcare costs as a percentage of gross domestic product in many countries means that governments and payers are under intense pressure to control spending even more tightly. See “ItemItem 4. Information on the Company—B.Company-B. Business Overview—ThirdOverview-Third Party Reimbursement and Pricing.”
In the United States,U.S., there has been increasing pricing pressure from managed care groups and institutional and governmental purchasers. In particular, as managed care groups have grown in size due to market consolidation, pharmaceutical companies have faced increased pressure in pricing and usage negotiations, and there is fierce competition among pharmaceutical companies to have their products included in the care providers’ formularies. Moreover, as a result of the changing legislative and regulatory environment, including, for example, as a result of the upcoming 2020 presidential election, in the United StatesU.S. we have experienced heightened pricing pressure on, and limitations on access to, our branded pharmaceutical products sold in the United States.U.S. There has
been increasing attention paid to the level of pricing of pharmaceutical products by policymakers and stakeholders, which could lead to political pressure or legislative, regulatory or other efforts to introduce lower prices, and change how the pharmaceutical supply chain could operate. In addition, there are efforts by the federal government to reduce spending on the Medicare and Medicaid programs, including proposals by the Congressional Budget Office to require pharmaceutical companies to pay a minimum rebate on drug products covered under Medicare Part D for low-income beneficiaries and to cap federal Medicaid payments to the states. Congressional proposals to convert the Medicare fee-for-service program into a premium support program could also lead to significant reductions
in Medicare spending. The future of the U.S. healthcare legislation, as well as the potential impact of any new legislation, is uncertain, but we expect the health care industry in the United StatesU.S. will continue to be subject to increasing pricing and spending pressure, including from regulation and political and legal action.
In Japan, manufacturers of pharmaceutical products must have new products listed on the National Health Insurance (the “NHI”) price list published by the Ministry of Health, Labour and Welfare of Japan (the “MHLW”) for the coverage under the public medical care insurance systems. The NHI price list provides rates for calculating the price of pharmaceutical products used in medical services provided under various public medical care insurance systems. Prices on the NHI price list have been subject to revision generally once every two years on the basis of the actual prices at which the pharmaceutical products are purchased by medical institutions in Japan after discounts and rebates are deducted from the listed price. The average price of previously listed products generally decreases as a result of these price revisions. The Japanese government is currently undertaking healthcare reform initiatives with a goal of sustaining the universal coverage of the NHI program, and is addressing the efficient use of drugs, including promotion of generic use with a target of 80% penetration by volume by September 2020 with respect to products for which market exclusivity has expired. As part of these initiatives, the NHI price list is expected to be revised annually from April 1, 2021, which could lead to more frequent downward price revisions. In addition, cost-effectiveness analysis was officially introduced by the MHLW in April 2019. Products on the NHI price list nominated based on pre-defined criteria, such as the innovativeness and the financial impact, will be subject to review, and subject to price adjustments depending on outcome of this review.
In Europe, as in the United States,U.S., drug prices have been subject to downward pressure due to measures implemented in each country to control drug costs, and prices continue to come under pressure due to parallel imports, generic competition, increasing use of health technology assessment based upon cost-effectiveness and other factors. European pricing and reimbursement authorities have also intensified efforts to increase transparency of prices as well as exchange of information among the various European pricing authorities in order to raise pressure towards the industry. This pricing debate has impacted the overall political climate in Europe and has triggered a European policy initiative to review the pharmaceutical industry’s intellectual property incentives with a particular emphasis on orphan drugs. Any new legislation in this area would take at least two to three years to be adopted but could have significant impact on our business model. We are also facing similar pricing pressures in other regions, such as various emerging countries.
We are also facing similar pricing pressures in other regions and countries including China. We expect such pricing pressures to continue as we expand our business in those regions and countries.
We expect these efforts to control costs to continue as healthcare payers around the globe, in particular government-controlled health authorities, publicly funded or subsidized health programs, insurance companies and managed care organizations (the “MCOs”), increasingly pursue initiatives to reduce the overall cost of healthcare, restrict access to higher-priced new medicines, increase the use of generics and impose overall price revisions. Such further implementation of these policies could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.
The expiration or loss of patent or regulatory data protection over our products or patent infringement by generic manufacturers could lead to significant competition from generic versions of the relevant product and lead to declines in market share and price levels of our products.
Our pharmaceutical products are generally protected for a defined period by various patents (including those covering drug substance, drug product, approved indications, methods of administration, methods of manufacturing, formulations and dosages) and/or regulatory exclusivity, which are intended to provide us with exclusive rights to market the products for the life of the patent or duration of the regulatory data protection period. The loss of market exclusivity for pharmaceutical products opens such products to competition from generic substitutes that are typically priced significantly lower than the original products, which typically adversely affects the market share and prices of the original products.
Generic substitutes have high market shares in a number of key markets, including the United States,U.S., Europe and many emerging countries, and the adverse effects of the launch of generic products are particularly significant in such markets. The introduction of generic versions of a pharmaceutical product typically leads to a swift and substantial decline in the sales of the original product. Our active life cycle management efforts cannot fully mitigate the impact of competition from generics. In the United StatesU.S. and the European Union (“EU”), for example, political pressure to reduce spending on prescription drugs has led to legislation and other measures that encourage the use of generic products. In Japan, the government is implementing various measures to control drug costs, including by encouraging medical practitioners to use and prescribe generic drugs, and in June 2017 announced its intention to raise generic drug penetration with respect to products for which market exclusivity has expired to 80% by volume by September 2020. Legislation has also been passed in the United StatesU.S. and Europe encouraging the use of biosimilar products. Similar to generics, biosimilars aim to provide less expensive versions of innovative biologic products. New legislation has provided abbreviated pathways for the approval and marketing of biosimilar products, which may affect the profitability and commercial viability of our biologic products.
Certain of our products have begun to, or are expected over the next several years to, face declining sales due to the loss of market exclusivity. For example, following the expiration of patent protection over bortezomib, the active ingredient in VELCADE, one of our largest selling products in the United States,U.S., a competing bortezomib-containing product has been introduced. This has led to a decrease in sales of VELCADE, and further entry of competing products could result in substantial additional declines. Such decreases may accelerate following the scheduled expiration of patent protection over the formulation of VELCADE in 2022, or earlier if a competitor is able to develop a way to formulate VELCADE in a manner that does not infringe the relevant patent or succeed in getting the formulation patent invalidated. Patent protections over VYVANSE, which we acquired as part of the Shire
Acquisition and which was Shire’s largest selling product, are scheduled to expire in 2023, which we anticipate will lead to declines in sales. In addition, as patent protection has expired for PANTOPRAZOLEENTYVIO, which is currently our top selling product, will begin to lose regulatory exclusivity in many major markets including the United States and the EU in 2024 and in the U.S. and Japan in 2026, and we expect to see decreased sales of PANTOPRAZOLEENTYVIO have continued to decline in those markets.the long term as a result.
We may also be subject to competition from generic drug manufacturers prior to the expiration of patents if a manufacturer successfully challenges the validity of our patents, or if the manufacturer believes that the benefits of launching the generic drug “at risk”at risk (prior to the expiration of our patent) outweigh the costs of defending infringement litigation. For example, we received notice in June 2020 that an abbreviated new drug application (an “ANDA”) to sell a generic version of VYVANSE was filed in the U.S. which could lead to a challenge to the relevant patents and the possibility of the introduction of a generic competitor prior to its scheduled expiration. If such a competitor launches a generic product “at risk”at risk before the initiation or
completion of court proceedings, a court may decline to grant us a preliminary injunction to halt further “at risk”at risk sales and remove the infringing product from the market. While we may be entitled to obtain damages subsequently, the amount we may ultimately be awarded and able to collect may be insufficient to compensate for the loss of sales and other harm caused to us. Furthermore, if we lose patent protection as a result of an adverse court decision or a settlement, in certain jurisdictions, we may face the risk that government and private third-party payers and purchasers of pharmaceutical products may claim damages alleging they have over-reimbursed or overpaid for a drug.
If our patent and other intellectual property rights are infringed by generic drug manufacturers or other third parties, we may not be able to take full advantage of the potential or existing demand for our products. The protection that we are able to obtain for our prescription drugs varies from product to product and country to country and may not always be sufficient because of local variations in issued patents, or differences in national law or legal systems, including inconsistency in the enforcement or application of law and limitations on the availability of meaningful legal remedies. In particular, patent protection in emerging markets is often less certain than in developed markets. Certain countries may also engage in compulsory licensing of pharmaceutical intellectual property to other manufacturers as a result of local political pressure. Furthermore, the attention of our management and other personnel could be diverted from their normal business activities if we decide to litigate against such infringement. The realization of any such risks could adversely and materially affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.
We may have difficulty maintaining the competitiveness of our products.
The pharmaceutical industry is highly competitive, and in order to maintain the competitiveness of our product portfolio, we are required to maintain ongoing, extensive research for technological innovations, including new compounds, to develop and commercialize existing pipeline products, to expand our product portfolio through acquisitions and in-licensing, and to market our products effectively, including by communicating the efficacy, safety and value of our products to healthcare professionals. However, healthcare professionals and consumers may choose competitors’ products over ours nonetheless, if they perceive these products to be safer, more reliable, more effective, easier to administer or less expensive. The success of any product depends on our ability to effectively communicate with and educate the healthcare professionals and patients and convince them of the advantage of our products over those of our competitors. We often carry out costly clinical trials even after our products have been launched to produce data to be utilized for these purposes, but such trials do not always produce the desired outcomes. Furthermore, many of our competitors have greater financial and other resources to conduct such trials in more detail and with larger patient populations, which may ultimately enable them to promote their products more effectively than we do. Moreover, if relevant regulators increase their approvals of new therapies developed by competitors for the conditions treated by our products, such as in order to increase the number of treatment options available for rare or orphan diseases, our business and results of operations could be materially and adversely affected.
For example, in recent years, competitors have introduced novel hemophilia products, or such products have been approved for additional uses, which may affect (and in certain cases has affected) sales of our recombinant and plasma-based hemophilia products, such as our factor FVIII products and FEIBA. Moreover, certain competitors are developing other hemophilia therapies, including gene-based therapies, which, if successfully introduced, could also affect sales of our recombinant and plasma-based therapies. Increased competition from new products or therapies could similarly affect our other products.
In Japan, reduced approval times for drugs already marketed outside Japan have led to increased competition through the introduction of such drugs into the Japanese market by foreign competitors. In addition, new competing products or the development of superior medical technologies and other treatment options could make our products or technologies lose their competitiveness or become obsolete. As discussed above, our products are also subject to competition from inexpensive generic versions of our products, as well as generic versions of our competitors’ products, upon the expiration or loss of related patent protection and regulatory data protection, which may result in loss of market share. If we are unable to maintain the competitiveness of our products, our business, financial position and results of operations could be materially and adversely affected.
Furthermore, sales of the rare disease portfolio are particularly concentrated among small groups of customers, and we may be disproportionately affected by changes in their purchasing patterns, including if we are unable to maintain the competitiveness of our products.
We are subject to the risk of intellectual property infringement claims directed at us by third parties.
We are subject to the risk of infringement claims directed at us by third parties, even if we do not knowingly infringe on any valid third-party intellectual property rights. Although we monitor our operations to prevent infringement on the intellectual property rights of third parties, if we are found to have infringed the intellectual property rights of others or if we agree to settle infringement claims, we may be required to recall the relevant products, terminate manufacturing and sales of such products, pay significant damages or pay significant royalties.
We evaluate any such infringement claims to assess the likelihood of unfavorable outcomes and to estimate, if possible, the amount of potential losses. Based on these assessments and estimates, and in keeping with applicable accounting and disclosure standards, we establish reserves
and/or disclose the relevant litigation claims or decide not to establish reserves or disclose litigation claims. These assessments and estimates are based on the information available to our management at such time and involve a significant amount of management judgment. Actual outcomes or losses may differ materially from those envisioned by our current assessments and estimates. Although the parties to such patent and intellectual property disputes in the pharmaceutical industry have often settled through licensing or similar arrangements, the costs associated with these arrangements may be substantial and could include the payment of ongoing royalties. Furthermore, the necessary licenses may not be available on acceptable terms or at all. Therefore, if we are unable to successfully defend against infringement claims by third parties, our financial results could be materially and adversely affected.
The illegal distribution and sale by third parties of counterfeit versions of our products or products stolen from us could have an adverse effect on our reputation and business.
Third parties may illegally distribute and sell counterfeit versions of our products, which do not meetWe assumed certain tax related risks in connection with the rigorous manufacturing and testing standards to which our products are subject. A patient who receives a counterfeit drug may be at risk for a number of dangerous health consequences. Reports of adverse reactions to counterfeit drugs or increased levels of counterfeiting could materially affect patient confidence in our products,Shire Acquisition, which could haveresult in significant liability if the relevant tax authorities take a material adverse effectposition that amounts received or transactions are taxable.
In connection with the Shire Acquisition, we assumed certain tax related risks related to the legacy Shire business, including the tax treatment of the break fee of 1.635 billion USD that Shire received in connection with the terminated offer to acquire Shire made by AbbVie, Inc. in 2014. In this respect, the Irish Revenue issued an assessment received by Shire on our reputationNovember 28, 2018 for 398 million EUR on the basis that the break fee was a taxable capital gain, which was contrary to the advice that Shire received. Based on continued advice that no tax liability should arise from the break fee, Shire appealed the assessment and financial results.the appeals process is continuing. However, the appeal may not be successful and at this time the outcome is unknown. In addition, thefts at warehouses, at plants, or in transitconnection with its acquisition of inventoryBaxalta Incorporated (“Baxalta”) in 2016, Shire agreed to indemnify Baxter International Inc., its affiliates and each of their respective officers, directors and employees against certain tax-related losses if the merger of Baxalta and Shire causes the prior spin-off of Baxalta by Baxter and related transactions to fail to qualify as tax-free. Although Shire received an opinion of tax counsel that the merger will not cause such prior transactions to fail to qualify as tax-free, such opinion is not properly stored or that is sold through unauthorized channels could materiallybinding on the tax authorities and adversely affect patient safety, our reputation and our results of operations.the potential tax indemnification obligations are not limited in amount.
We may not be able to adequately expand our product portfolio through third-party alliance arrangements.
We expect that we will continue to rely on third parties for key aspects of our business, including the discovery and development of new products, in-licensing products, and the marketing and distribution of approved products. A major part of our research and development strategy is to initiate alliances with third parties in the biotechnology industry, academia and the public sector, and we believe that the overall strength of our research and development program and product pipeline depends on our ability to identify and initiate partnerships, in-licensing arrangements and other collaborations with third parties. However, there can be no assurance that any of our third-party alliances will lead to the successful development and marketing of new products. Moreover, reliance on third-party alliances subjects us to a number of risks, including:
We may be unable to identify suitable opportunities at a reasonable cost and on terms that are acceptable to us due to active and intense competition among pharmaceutical groups for alliance opportunities or other factors;
Entering into in-licensing or partnership agreements may require the payment of significant “milestones”milestones well before the relevant products are placed in the market, without any assurance that such investments will ultimately become profitable in the long term. To the extent such milestone payments are recorded as assets on our balance sheet,consolidated statement of financial position, any termination of the relevant partnership could require us to recognize an impairment loss up to the full value of such asset;
When we research and market our products through collaboration arrangements, the performance of certain key tasks or functions are the responsibility of our collaboration partners, who may not perform effectively or otherwise meet our expectations; and
Decisions may be under the control of or subject to the approval of our collaboration partners, and we may have differing views or be unable to agree upon an appropriate course of action. Any conflicts or difficulties that we may have with our partners during the course of these agreements or at the time of their renewal or renegotiation or any disruption in the relationships with our partners may affect the development, launch and/or marketing of certain of our products or product candidates.
In addition, a licensor may attempt to terminate its license agreement with us or elect not to renew it to pursue other marketing opportunities. Our licensors also could also merge with or be acquired by another company or experience financial or other setbacks unrelated to our licensing arrangements. Any of these events may force us to abandon a development project and adversely affect our ability to adequately expand or maintain our product portfolio.
OurThe COVID-19 pandemic may negatively affect our business, operating results and financial condition, may fluctuate dueand has negatively affected the trading price of our common stock and ADSs.
In December 2019, a novel strain of coronavirus (“COVID-19”) was reported to have originated in China. As COVID-19 continued to spread to other regions of the world, including, among others, Japan, North America, Europe and the U.K., the World Health Organization categorized the outbreak as a pandemic in March 2020. Global efforts to contain the spread of COVID-19 have continued to intensify in affected regions, with such efforts including travel restrictions, shelter-in-place orders and/or curfews, facility closures and the extended shutdown of businesses. We have taken a number of factorsactions in response to the spread of COVID-19, including implementing remote work arrangements where possible, canceling non-essential business travel, decreasing in-person meetings between our sales representatives and prescribers and placing a general pause on the initiation of new studies, other than for the development of “CoVIg-19”, a hyperimmune globulin treatment for COVID-19 being jointly developed with the other members of the CoVIg-19 Plasma Alliance, as well as new patient enrollment for ongoing studies with a small number of exceptions. The outbreak and preventative or protective actions that governments, corporations, individuals or we have taken or may take in the future to contain the spread of COVID-19 may result in a period of reduced operations, decreased product demand including due to reduced numbers of in-person meetings with prescribers, patient visits with physicians, vaccinations and elective surgeries, further delays in the start of clinical trials or other research and development efforts, business disruption for us and our suppliers, subcontractors, customers and other third parties
with which we do business and potential delays or disruptions related to regulatory approvals. However, these measures may not be comparable across periods.
Our operating resultseffective in stopping or significantly slowing the spread of COVID-19 in general or at our facilities, and financial conditionthere may fluctuate from quarter to quarterbe multiple waves of outbreaks. The effects of the outbreak and year to year for a number of reasons,related actions, including acquisitions, divestitures, major product launches, patent expiration or expiration of regulatory data protection for key products and other reasons. In particular, as partif significant portions of our effortsworkforce are unable to refocuswork effectively due to facility closures, issues relating to productivity or data security arising from the implementation of remote working arrangements, illness, quarantines, government actions, our actions, like those mentioned above, or other restrictions, may therefore hinder or delay our production capabilities (and, in particular, have resulted in a temporary decline in our plasma collections) and otherwise impede our ability to perform on our obligations to our customers, and may also result in increased costs to us. The outbreak and related actions may also prevent our suppliers, vendors or subcontractors from meeting their obligations to us, including the supply of plasma, which has no substitute, which could also impair our ability to meet our supply obligations or execute our business portfolio, weplans in a timely manner or at all, or require us to incur significant additional costs. Any costs associated with the COVID-19 outbreak may not be fully recoverable or adequately covered by insurance. The outbreak and related actions may also result in reduced customer demand or limit the ability of customers, including governments or government agencies, to perform their obligations to us, including in making timely payments to us. Any of these factors, depending on the severity and duration of the outbreak and its effects, could have recently entered into a number of significant transactions that are expected to affectmaterial adverse effect on our business, results of operations including:and financial condition.
the Shire Acquisition;
the acquisitionThe financial impact of TiGenix NV in July 2018;
the divestment of Wako Pure Chemical Industries, Ltd. (“Wako Pure Chemical”), one ofthese factors cannot be reasonably estimated at this time but may materially affect our consolidated subsidiaries, to FUJIFILM Corporation in April 2017;
the acquisition of ARIAD Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (“ARIAD”) in February 2017;business, financial condition and
the transfer of certain long-listed products, consisting of products for which patent protection and regulatory data protection have expired, to Teva Takeda Yakuhin Ltd., a wholly-owned subsidiary of Teva Takeda Pharma Ltd., a joint venture we formed with Teva Pharmaceutical Industries Ltd., in April 2016, and the subsequent sale of seven additional long-listed products in May 2017.
We intend to continue to pursue both acquisitions of new businesses and dispositions of existing businesses in the future. As a result, period-to-period comparisons of our results of operations, may not always be directly comparable, and these comparisons should not be relied upon as an indicationthe trading prices of future performance. Our operating resultsour common stock and ADSs were impacted by volatility in the financial condition are also subject to fluctuationsmarkets resulting from the risks described throughout this section.pandemic. The full extent to which the pandemic impacts our business, results or the trading price of our common stock and ADSs will depend on future developments, which are highly uncertain and cannot be predicted, including new information which may emerge concerning the severity and duration of the pandemic and actions to contain its spread or treat its impact, among others.
We have significant global operations across the world, including emerging markets, which expose us to additional risks.
Our global operations, which encompass approximately 80 countries and regions across the world, are subject to a number of risks, including the following:
difficulties in monitoring and coordinating research and development, marketing, supply-chain and other operations in a large number of jurisdictions;
risks related to various laws, regulations and policies, including those implemented following changes in political leadership and trade, capital and exchange controls;
changes with respect to taxation, including impositions or increases of withholding and other taxes on remittances and other payments by our overseas subsidiaries;
varying standards and practices in the legal, regulatory and business cultures in which we operate, including potential inability to enforce contracts or intellectual property rights;
trade restrictions and changes in tariffs;
complex sanctions regimes in various countries such as the United States,U.S., the EU and other jurisdictions, violations of which could lead to fines or other penalties;
risks related to political instability and uncertain business environments;
changes in the political, economic or social climate, including inter-country relationships;
acts of terrorism, war, global climate change, extreme weather events, medical epidemics or pandemics such as the recent COVID-19 pandemic, and other sources of social disruption; and
difficulties associated with managing local personnel and preventing misconduct by local third-party alliance partners.
Any one or more of these or other factors could increase our costs, reduce our revenues, or disrupt our operations, with possible material adverse effects on our business, financial condition and results of operations. Further expansion overseas has been one of our key strategies, and, in the fiscal year ended March 31, 2019,2020, regions outside of Japan accounted for 72.8%82.0% of our consolidated revenue, with the United StatesU.S. in particular contributing 39.5%48.5% of consolidated revenue, and we anticipate that these proportions will further increase once Shire’s businesses have been included in our consolidated results of operations for a full fiscal year.revenue. We expect that markets outside Japan, particularly the United StatesU.S. and also Europe, the U.K., Canada and emerging markets, will continue to be increasingly important to our business and results of operations, increasing the likelihood that any of these risks is realized.
We may not be able to realize the expected benefits of our investments in emerging markets.
We have been also taking steps to grow our business in emerging markets, which we define to include Russia/Commonwealth of Independent States (“CIS”), Latin America, Asia (excluding Japan) and Other (including the Middle East, Oceania and Africa). Our revenue from emerging markets was ¥291.6456.9 billion JPY (or 13.9% of our total revenue) for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2019,2020, and we intend to pursue further growth in such emerging markets. In particular, we believe that there is an attractive opportunity to grow our business in China.
However, there is no guarantee that our efforts to expand sales in emerging markets will succeed. Some countries may be especially vulnerable to periods of global financial instability or may have very limited resources to spend on healthcare. Emerging markets present particular challenges in obtaining funding, achieving market access for our products and successfully ensuring that we receive appropriate levels of reimbursement. Emerging markets also tend to require substantial efforts in patient support and other programs. All of these factors may adversely affect the profitability of our businesses in these emerging markets.
In order to successfully implement our emerging markets strategy, we must also attract and retain qualified personnel, despite the possibility that some emerging markets may have a relatively limited number of persons with the required skills and training. We may also be required to increase our reliance on third-party agents within less-developed markets, which may put us at increased risk of liability. In addition, many emerging markets have currencies that fluctuate substantially, and if such currencies are devalued and we cannot offset the devaluations, our financial performance in such countries may be adversely affected. Further, many emerging markets have relatively weak intellectual property protection and inadequate protection against crime, including counterfeiting, corruption and fraud. Operations in certain emerging countries, where corruption may be more prevalent than in more developed countries and where internal compliance practices may not be well established, may also pose challenges from a legal and regulatory compliance perspective. Moreover, we may face additional legal and regulatory barriers to achieving growth, such as restrictions on the import of raw
materials or other trade regulations (for example, on the import of plasma into China) that will require us to expend additional resources to achieve our goals.
For reasons including but not limited to the above, sales withinsignificant parts of our operations across the world including emerging markets carrypresents significant risks, and the realization of such risks could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.
We face risks relating to the expected exit of the United Kingdom from the European Union.
On June 23, 2016, the United Kingdom held a remain-or-leave referendum on the United Kingdom’s membership within the European Union, the result of which favored the exit of the United KingdomThe U.K.’s withdrawal from the EU (commonly known as “Brexit”). A process became effective on January 31, 2020. The subsequent transition period (sometimes called the implementation period) is expected to last until December 31, 2020 and creates uncertainties affecting business operations in the EU. The withdrawal by the U.K. from the EU, particularly if the transition period expires without a trade agreement between the U.K. and the EU, could result in the deterioration of negotiation will likely determine the future terms of the United Kingdom’s relationship with the EU,economic conditions, volatility in currency exchange rates, and increased regulatory complexities, as well as whether the United Kingdompotential for product shortages, increased costs or other similar effects. Given the lack of progress on a future trade agreement between both parties, regulatory arrangements for the U.K. beyond December 2020 have not been clarified, which could impact our future operations in the U.K. Particular uncertainty exists about the most appropriate way to supply medicines to Northern Ireland after December 31, 2020, given the lack of agreement on how the Northern Ireland Protocol will be ableimplemented with regard to continue to benefit from the EU’s free trade and similar agreements. Additionally, Brexit has impacted the EMA, which is the primary regulator of the pharmaceutical industry in the EU and which has stated that it expects to lose about 25% of its 900 staff members due to the EMA’s relocation from London to Amsterdam as a result of Brexit. The EMA has developed a business continuity plan that allows EMA to temporarily scale back or temporarily suspend lower priority activities during the relocation and as it prepares for Brexit. For example, the EMA noted in its annual report for 2018 that, in order to be able to concentrate on Brexit and the EMA’s relocation to Amsterdam, it had to delay updating its guidelines on the development of new medicines to treat hemophilia A and B. Delays in EMA processes such as this caused by Brexit may adversely affect or delay our business, including our ability to develop and market new or existing products in the EU.medicines.
The timing of Brexit and potential impact of Brexit on our market share, sales, profitability and results of operations is unclear. Depending on these outcomes during and after the terms of Brexit andtransition period, as well as any continuingpotential impact on the EMA, economic conditions in the United Kingdom,U.K., the European UnionEU and global markets may be adversely affected by reduced growth and volatility. The uncertainty before, during and after the period of negotiation is also expected to have a negative economic impact and increase volatility in the markets, particularly in the Eurozone. Such volatility and negative economic impact could, in turn, adversely affect our revenues, financial condition or results of operations.
Our results of operations and financial condition may be adversely affected by foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations.
We manufacture and sell products to customers in numerous countries, and we have entered and will enter into acquisition, licensing, borrowings or other financial transactions that give rise to translation and transaction risks related to foreign currency exposure. Fluctuations in currency exchange rates in the markets where we are active could negatively affect our results of operations, financial position and cash flows. For the fiscal year ended March 31, 2019, 72.8%2020, 82.0% of our sales were in markets outside Japan, and we expect this proportion to be even higher for subsequent fiscal periods, due to anticipated increases in overseas sales of growth driver products and the contribution of Shire’s results to our results of operations, particularly in the U.S. market.Japan. Our consolidated financial statements are presented in Japanese yen, and by translating the foreign currency financial statements of our foreign subsidiaries into yen, the amounts of our revenue, operating profit, assets and equity, on a consolidated basis, are affected by prevailing rates of exchange.
We utilize certain hedging measures with respect to some of our foreign currency transactions. However, such hedging measures do not cover all of our exposures and, even to the extent they do, they may only delay, or may otherwise be unable to completely eliminate, the impact of fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates.
Our reliance on third parties for the performance of certain key business functions, particularly product manufacture and commercialization, heightens the risks faced by our business.
We rely on suppliers, vendors and partners, including alliances with other pharmaceutical companies, for certain key aspects of our business, including manufacture and commercialization of products, support for information technology systems and certain human resource functions. We do not control these partners, but we depend on them in ways that may be significant to us. If these parties fail to meet our expectations or fulfill their obligations to us, we may fail to receive the expected benefits. In addition, if any of these third parties fails to comply with applicable laws and regulations in the course of its performance of services for us, there is a risk that we may be held responsible for such violations as well. This risk is particularly serious in emerging markets, where corruption is often prevalent and where many of the third parties on which we rely do not have internal compliance resources comparable to our own. Any such failures by third parties, in emerging markets or elsewhere, could adversely affect our business, reputation, financial condition or results of operations.
Our dependence on third parties for the inputs for our products subjects us to various risks, and changes in the costs of materials may adversely affect our profitability.
Although we develop and manufacture the active ingredients used in some of our products at our own facilities, we are dependent on third-party suppliers for a substantial portion of the raw materials and compounds used in the products we produce. The price and availability of the raw materials for our products, including chemical compounds and biologics, are subject to the effects of weather, natural disasters, market forces, the economic environment, fuel costs and foreign exchange rates. If our cost for such materials increases, we may not be able to make corresponding increases in the prices of our products due to market conditions or our relationships with our customers, and as a result, our profitability could be materially and adversely affected.
In particular, we rely on third-party suppliers of key manufacturing inputs of certain drug products, including, but not limited to, ADCETRIS, ADVATE, ADYNOVATE, ALUNBRIG, CINRYZE, CUVITRU, ENTYVIO, FEIBA, FIRAZYR, GATTEX/REVESTIVE, HYQVIA, LEUPRON, MEPACT, NINLARO, TAKHZYRO, and VELCADE. Furthermore, certain active ingredients for these products are sourced from a single supplier. We also rely in part on third-party sources to provide the donated plasma necessary for our plasma-derived therapies. In addition, although we dual-source certain key products and/or active ingredients, we currently rely on a single source for production of the final drug product for certain of our products, including, but not limited to, ADDERALL XR, ADYNOVATE, ALOFISEL, ALUNBRIG, CINRYZE, CUVITRU, FIRAZYR, HYQVIA, LIALDA, MEPACT, NINLARO,
PENTASA and TAKHZYRO. Sources of some materials may be limited to a single supplier, and if such supplier faces any difficulty in supplying the materials, we may not be able to find an alternative supplier in a timely manner or at all. If materials become unavailable or if quality problems related to the materials arise, we may be forced to halt production and sales of products that use them. In the event that any of our third-party suppliers is delayed in its delivery of such raw materials or compounds, is unable to deliver the full quantity ordered by us at the appropriate level of quality, or is unable to deliver any raw materials or compounds at all, our ability to sell our products in the quantities demanded by the market may be impaired, which could damage our reputation and relationships with customers and patients. In such a case, our business and results of operations could be adversely affected.
The manufacture of our products is technically complex and highly regulated, and supply interruptions, product recalls or other production problems caused by unforeseen events may reduce sales, adversely affect our operating results and financial condition and delay the launch of new products.
The manufacture of our products is technically complex and highly regulated, and as a result we may experience difficulties or delays including but not limited to the following:
seizure or recalls of products or shut-downs of manufacturing plants;
problems with business continuity, including as a result of a natural or man-made disaster, at one of our facilities or at a critical supplier or vendor;
failure by us or by any of our vendors or suppliers to comply with the Good Manufacturing Practice (the “GMP”) and other applicable regulations and quality assurance guidelines, which could lead to manufacturing shutdowns, product shortages, and delays in product manufacturing;manufacturing and /or administrative, enforcement or other actions by regulatory authorities if regulatory authorities deem our products to be adulterated or otherwise in violation of applicable laws;
problems with manufacturing, quality assurance/quality control or supply, or governmental approval delays, due to our consolidation and rationalization of manufacturing facilities and the sale or closure of certain sites;
failure of a sole source or single source supplier to provide us with necessary raw materials, supplies or finished goods for an extended period of time, which could impact continuous supply;
failure of a third-party manufacturer to supply us with semi-finished or finished products on time;
construction or regulatory approval delays related to new facilities or the expansion of existing facilities;
the inability to obtain sufficient components or raw materials on a timely basis or at a cost-effective price due to public health crises, medical epidemics or pandemics such as the COVID-19 pandemic;
additional costs related to deficiencies identified by regulatory agencies in connection with inspections of our facilities, and enforcement, remedial or punitive actions by regulatory authorities if we fail to remedy any deficiencies; and
other manufacturing or distribution problems including limits to manufacturing capacity due to regulatory requirements (e.g. Registration, Evaluation, Authorisation and Restriction of Chemicals (“REACH”) regulation in the EU), changes in the types of products produced, physical limitations or other business interruptions that could impact continuous supply.
In addition, despite efforts at compliance, from time to time we or our partners may receive notices of manufacturing, quality-related, or other observations following inspections by regulatory authorities around the world, as well as official agency correspondence regarding compliance. For example, on June 9, 2020 the FDA issued a warning letter related to our manufacturing plant in Hikari, Yamaguchi, Japan which included several technical observations, including observations about procedures, personnel, records, investigations, training, equipment, and oversight. We are reviewing the warning letter and will respond to the FDA within the required timeframe. This action resulted from a routine inspection by the FDA of our Hikari manufacturing plant in November 2019. Following the inspection, we immediately put into place a comprehensive corrective action/preventative action plan, and the issues raised as part of the inspection are being addressed within the context of those activities. However, we or our partners may receive additional or similar observations and correspondence in the future, whether regarding the Hikari plant or otherwise. If we are unable to resolve these observations and address regulator concerns in a timely fashion, our business, financial condition and results of operations could be materially affected.
The development and manufacture of biologics including products added to our portfolio following the completion of the Shire Acquisition and stem cell therapies resulting from our acquisition of Tigenix NV in July 2018, present heightened or additional risks. The manufacture of biologics, including stem cell products, is highly complex and is characterized by inherent risks and challenges, such as raw material inconsistencies, logistical
and sourcing challenges, significant quality control and assurance requirements, manufacturing complexity (including heightened regulatory requirements) and significant manual processing. Unlike products that rely on chemicals for efficacy, such as most pharmaceuticals, biologics are difficult to characterize due to the inherent variability of biological input materials. As a result, assays of the finished product may not be sufficient to ensure that the product will perform in the intended manner. Problems with the manufacturing process, even minor deviations from the normal process, could result in product defects or manufacturing failures that result in, among other things, lot failures, product recalls, product liability claims or insufficient inventory, which could be costly to us or result in reputational damage.
Furthermore, sourcing and transportation of plasma and production and distribution of plasma-derived products is complex, capital intensive and subject to extensive regulation. If we are unable to manage these inherent risks and challenges, we may lose market share or customer confidence, be required to record charges related to idle capacity or impairment on facilities or take other actions which could materially and adversely affect the Plasma-Derived Therapies business.
Any of the above may reduce sales, delay the launch of new products, and adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.
The illegal distribution and sale by third parties of counterfeit versions of our products or products stolen from us could have an adverse effect on our reputation and business.
Third parties may illegally distribute and sell counterfeit versions of our products, which do not meet the rigorous manufacturing and testing standards to which our products are subject. A patient who receives a counterfeit drug may be at risk for a number of dangerous health consequences. Reports of adverse reactions to counterfeit drugs or increased levels of counterfeiting could materially affect patient confidence in our products, which could have a material adverse effect on our reputation and financial results. In addition, thefts at warehouses, at plants, or in transit of inventory that is not properly stored or that is sold through unauthorized channels could materially and adversely affect patient safety, our reputation and our results of operations.
We are involved in litigation relating to our operations on an ongoing basis, and such litigation could result in financial losses or harm our business.
We are involved in various litigation relating to our operations on an ongoing basis, including claims related to product liability and intellectual property as well as to antitrust, sales and marketing and other regulatory regimes. Given the inherent unpredictability of litigation, it is possible that an adverse outcome in one or more pending or future litigation matters could have a material adverse effect on our operating results or cash flows. For a description of certain ongoing litigation, see Note 32 to our audited consolidated financial statements included in this annual report.statements.
Economic, financial and financialenvironment conditions may have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.
Growth of the global pharmaceutical market has become increasingly tied to global economic growth. In this context, a substantial and lasting slowdown of the global economy or major national economies could negatively affect growth in the global pharmaceutical market and, as a result, adversely affect our business. In particular, weak economic conditions can have a particularly adverse impact on pharmaceutical demand in markets having significant co-pays or lacking a developed third-party payer system, as individual patients may delay or decrease out-of-pocket healthcare expenditures. Negative economic developments could also reduce the sources of funding for national social security systems, leading to heightened pressure on drug prices, increased substitution of generic drugs, and the exclusion of certain products from formularies.
Following the global financial crisis in 2008, economic growth continuescontinued to be stagnant in major developed countries while the pace of growth in many emerging economies continued to decline. Since the outbreak of COVID-19, economic growth has declined.and is expected to continue to significantly slow down. The Brexit referendum inU.K.’s exit from the U.K,EU, political volatility in the United States following recent mid-term elections,U.S., including in relation to the 2020 presidential election, continued instability in the Middle East and North Korea and global developments in trade and security policy have increased political and economic uncertainty. To the extent that economic or financial conditions continue to weaken and not improve in any of our major operating markets, demand for our products or product pricing could be negatively affected. In addition, to the extent that the current or future economic and financial conditions negatively affect the global business environment, we could experience a disruption or delay in the performance of third parties on which we rely for parts of our business, including collaboration partners and suppliers. See “The COVID-19 pandemic may negatively affect our business, operating results and financial condition, and has negatively affected the trading price of our common stock and ADSs.”
Such disruptions or delays could have a material and adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.
We may have difficulty maintaining the competitiveness of our products.
The pharmaceutical industry is highly competitive, and in order to maintain the competitiveness of our product portfolio, we are required to maintain ongoing, extensive research for technological innovations, including new compounds, to develop and commercialize existing pipeline products, to expand our product portfolio through acquisitions and in-licensing, and to market our products effectively, including by communicating the efficacy, safety and value of our products to healthcare professionals. However, healthcare professionals and consumers may choose competitors’ products over ours nonetheless, if they perceive these products to be safer, more reliable, more effective, easier to administer or less expensive. The success of any product depends on our ability to effectively communicate with and educate the healthcare professionals and patients and convince them of the advantage of our products over those of our competitors. We often carry out costly clinical trials even after our products have been launched to produce data to be utilized for these purposes, but such trials do not always produce the desired outcomes. Furthermore, many of our competitors have greater financial and other resources to conduct such trials in more detail and with larger patient populations, which may ultimately enable them to promote their products more effectively than we do. Moreover, if relevant regulators increase their approvals of new therapies developed by competitors for the conditions treated by our products, such as in order to increase the number of treatment options available for rare or orphan diseases, our business and results of operations could be materially and adversely affected.
For example, in recent years, competitors have introduced additional plasma-based hemophilia products, or such products have been approved for additional uses, which may affect (and in certain cases has affected) sales of our plasma-based hemophilia products, such as FEIBA. Moreover, certain competitors are developing other hemophilia therapies, including gene-based therapies, which, if successfully introduced, could also harm sales of our plasma-based therapies. Increased competition from new products or therapies could similarly affect our other products.
In Japan, reduced approval times for drugs already marketed outside Japan have led to increased competition through the introduction of such drugs into the Japanese market by foreign competitors. In addition, new competing products or the development of superior medical technologies and other treatment options could make our products or technologies lose their competitiveness or become obsolete. As discussed above, our products are also subject to competition from inexpensive generic versions of our products, as well as generic versions of our competitors’ products, upon the expiration or loss of related patent protection and regulatory data protection, which may result in loss of market share. If we are unable to maintain the competitiveness of our products, our business, financial position and results of operations could be materially and adversely affected.
Our products may have unanticipated adverse effects or possible adverse effects, which may restrict use of the product or give rise to product liability claims.
As a pharmaceutical company, we are subject to significant risks related to product liability. Unanticipated adverse reactions or unfavorable publicity from complaints concerning any of our products, or those of our competitors, could have an adverse effect on our ability to obtain or maintain regulatory approvals or successfully market our products, and may even result in recalls, withdrawal of regulatory approval or adverse labeling of the product.
While our products are subject to comprehensive clinical trials and rigorous statistical analysis during the development process prior to approval, there are inherent limitations with regard to the design of such trials, including the limited number of patients enrolled in such trials, the limited time used to measure the efficacy of the product and the limited ability to perform long-term monitoring. In the event that such unanticipated adverse reactions are discovered, we may be required to add descriptions of the adverse reactions as “precautions”precautions to the packaging of our products, recall and terminate sales of products or conduct costly post-launch clinical trials. Furthermore, concerns relating to potential adverse reactions could arise among consumers or medical professionals, and such concerns, whether justified or not, could have an adverse effect on sales of our products and our reputation. We could also be subject to product liability litigation by patients who have suffered or claim to have suffered such adverse reactions resulting in harm to their health.
Although we maintain product liability insurance at coverage levels that we believe are appropriate, we could be subject to product liability that significantly exceeds such levels. Product liability coverage is also increasingly difficult and costly to obtain, and may not be available in the future on acceptable terms. Therefore, in the future, it is possible that we may need to rely increasingly on self-insurance for the management of product liability risk. In cases where we self-insure, the legal costs that we would bear for handling such claims and potential indemnifications to be paid to claimants could materially and adversely affect our financial condition. In addition, the negative publicity from product liability claims, whether or not justified, may damage our reputation and may negatively impact the number of prescriptions of the product in question or our other products. As a result, our business, financial condition and results of operations could be materially and adversely affected.
Sales to wholesalers are concentrated, which exposes us to credit risks and pricing pressures.
A significant portion of our global sales are made to a relatively small number of wholesale distributors, retail chains and other purchasing groups. In the fiscal year ended March 31, 2020, there were two wholesale distributors, AmerisourceBergen Corporation and McKesson Corporation, that accounted for over ten percent of Takeda’s total revenue. If one of our significant wholesale distributors encounters financial or other difficulties, such distributor may decrease the amount of business that it does with us, and we may be unable to collect the amounts that the distributor owes us on a timely basis or at all. Furthermore, the concentration of wholesale distributors has been increasing through mergers and acquisitions. In addition to increased credit risks, this has resulted in such distributors gaining additional purchasing leverage, which may increase pricing pressure on our products. Such credit concentration risks and pricing pressure could adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.
We may not be able to attract and retain key management and other personnel.
In order to produce, develop, support and market our products, we depend on the expertise and leadership of our senior management team and other key members of our organization. The loss of key members of our organization, including senior members of our scientific and management teams, high-quality researchers and development specialists, could delay or prevent the achievement of major business objectives. The market for such talentstalent has become increasingly competitive, including in specific geographic regions and in specialized fields such as clinical development and biosciences, and we are required to invest heavily in the recruitment, training and retention of qualified individuals, including salary and other compensation to reward performance and incentivize employees. Despite our efforts to retain them, key employees could terminate their employment with us for any reason or for no reason, and there is no assurance that we will be able to attract or retain key employees and successfully manage them. Our inability to attract, integrate and retain highly skilled personnel, particularly those in leadership positions, may weaken our succession plans and may materially adversely affect our ability to implement our strategy and meet our strategic objectives, which could ultimately adversely affect our business and results of operations.
We are increasingly dependent on information technology systems and our systems and infrastructure face the risk of theft, exposure, tampering or other intrusions.
A variety of important processes relating to the research and development, production and sale of our products depend heavily on our information systems, including cloud-based computing, or those of third party providers to whom we outsource certain business functions, including the storage and transfer of critical, confidential, sensitive or personal information regarding our patients, clinical trial subjects, vendors, customers, employees and others. We also increasingly seek to develop and collaborate on technology-based digital health products, such as mobile applications that aim to improve patient welfare in a variety of ways, which could lead us to store and transfer personal information about individual patients, customers and others. The size, age and complexity of these computerour information technology systems make them potentially vulnerable to service interruptions, malicious intrusions and random attacks. Cyber-attacks are increasing in frequency, sophistication and intensity. Such attacksintensity, and opportunistically in response to, for example, the spread of COVID-19 and implementation of remote working arrangements. These and other cyber-attacks are made by groups and individuals with a wide range of motives (including, but not limited to, industrial espionage) and expertise, including organized criminal groups, “hacktivists,”hacktivists, nation-states and others. Cyber-attacks could include the deployment of harmful malware, denial of service attacks, worms, social engineering and other means to affect service reliability and threaten data confidentiality, integrity and availability. The development and maintenance of systems to safeguard against such attacks is costly and requires ongoing monitoring and updating as technologies change and efforts to overcome security measures become increasingly more sophisticated. Moreover, the costs related to these security measures are expected to continue to increase. Despite our efforts, the possibility of a future data compromise cannot be eliminated entirely, and risks associated with intrusion, exposure, tampering, and theft remain. For “zero-dayzero-day threats,” or new vectors of attack which are currently unknown, the risk that our defenses will be inadequate are particularly pronounced.
Although we have not, to date, detected any material breaches of our information technology systems, data systems or personal information, the risk of such breaches remains and cannot be completely negated. If our data systems are compromised, our business operations may be impaired, we may lose profitable opportunities, or the value of those opportunities may be diminished, and we may lose revenue because of unlicensed use of our intellectual property or confidential or proprietary information. Cyber-attacks could significantly impact the availability of data systems that are essential to conducting routine business operations across the company, including product manufacturing or clinical development, and the recovery efforts could be both time consuming and costly. If personal information of our customers or employees is misappropriated, our reputation with our customers and employees may be injured resulting in loss of business and/or morale, and we may incur costs to remediate possible injury to our customers and employees or be required to pay fines or take other action with respect to judicial or regulatory actions arising out of such incidents. Data privacy or security breaches by employees and others with permitted access to our systems, including in some cases third-party service providers to which we may outsource certain business functions, may also pose a risk that sensitive data, including intellectual property or personal information, will be exposed to unauthorized persons or to the public.
Changes in data privacy and protection laws and regulations, particularly in Europe, or any failure to comply with such laws and regulations, could adversely affect our business and financial results.
We are subject to laws and regulations globally regarding privacy, data protection, and data security, including those related to the collection, storage, handling, use, disclosure, transfer, and security of personal data. Significant uncertainty exists as privacy and data protection laws may be interpreted and applied differently from country to country and may create inconsistent or conflicting requirements. For example, the EU’s General Data Protection Regulation (the “GDPR”), which imposes additional obligations on companies regarding the handling of personal data and provides certain individual privacy rights to persons whose data is processed, became effective on May 25, 2018. Moreover, significant regulatory fines may be imposed on us for violation of these requirements, particularly in the case of the GDPR, which are set at a maximum of the higher of €2020 million EUR or 4% of
annual global turnover for the most serious breaches, or the higher of €1010 million EUR or 2% of annual global turnover for certain others. There is also significant uncertainty as to how the various EU member states or individual regulators will implement and interpret the GDPR, and we are still in the process of identifying and unifying differences between our and Shire’s historical GPDRGDPR compliance practices. Furthermore, legislators and regulators in the United StatesU.S. are proposing new and more robust cybersecurity rules in light of the recent broad-based cyberattackscyber-attacks at a number of companies.companies, as well as data privacy laws, such as the California Consumer Privacy Act, which became effective on January 1, 2020. Compliance with existing, proposed and recently enacted laws (including implementation of the privacy and process enhancements called for under GDPR) and regulations can be costly; any failure to comply with these regulatory standards could subject us to legal and reputational risks. Misuse of or failure to secure personal information could also result in violation of data privacy laws and regulations, proceedings against us by governmental entities or others or damage to our reputation and credibility and could also have a negative impact on revenues and profits.
Social media platforms and new technologies present risks and challenges for our reputation and business.
Consumers, the media, pharmaceutical companies and other parties increasingly use social media and other new technologies to communicate about pharmaceutical products and the diseases they are intended to treat. For pharmaceutical companies, the use of these technologies requires specific attention, monitoring programs and moderation of comments. For example, negative or inaccurate posts or comments about us or our products on any social media networking platforms could damage our reputation and business. Social media could also be used to bring negative attention to us or to the pharmaceutical industry as a whole, which could in turn cause reputational harm to us and negatively impact our business. The nature of evidence-based health care, however, may prevent us from rapidly and adequately defending our interests against such comments. In addition, our employees and partners may use social media and mobile technologies inappropriately, which may expose us to liability, or which could lead to breaches of data security, loss of trade secrets or other intellectual property or public disclosure of sensitive information, including information about our employees, clinical trial subjects or customers.
Sales to wholesalers are concentrated, which exposes us to credit risks and pricing pressures.
A significant portion of our global sales are made to a relatively small number of wholesale distributors, retail chains and other purchasing groups. In the fiscal year ended March 31, 2019, our largest wholesale distributor accounted for 10.8% of our total revenue. If one of our significant wholesale distributors encounters financial or other difficulties, such distributor may decrease the amount of business that it does with us, and we may be unable to collect the amounts that the distributor owes us on a timely basis or at all. Furthermore, the concentration of wholesale distributors has been increasing through mergers and acquisitions. In addition to increased credit risks, this has resulted in such distributors gaining additional purchasing leverage, which may increase pricing pressure on our products. Such credit concentration risks and pricing pressure could adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.
We face risks from the pursuit of acquisitions, and the anticipated benefits and synergies resulting from acquisitions may not be realized.
We regularly pursue acquisitions for a number ofseveral reasons, including strengthening our pipeline, complementing existing lines of business, adding research and development capabilities or pursuing other synergies. The pursuit of these acquisitions requires the commitment of significant management and capital resources in various stages, from the exploration of potential acquisition targets to the negotiation and execution of an acquisition to the integration of an acquired business into our own. The required commitment of time and resources may divert the attention of management or capital or other resources away from our day-to-day business. Moreover, we may not be able to recoup the investment of capital or other resources through the successful integration of acquired businesses, including the realization of any expected cost or other synergies. Specifically, we may encounter the following difficulties:
We may face significant challenges in combining the infrastructure, management and information systems of acquired companies with ours, including integrating research and development, manufacturing, distribution, marketing and promotion activities and information technology systems;
There may be difficulties in conforming standards, controls, procedures and accounting and other policies, as well as business cultures and compensation structures;
We may not be able to retain key personnel at acquired companies, or our own employees may be motivated to leave due to acquisitions;
We may not be successful in identifying and eliminating redundancies and achieving other cost savings as expected; and
We may not be able to successfully realize benefits from acquired products, including pipeline products under development.
Integrating the operations of multiple new businesses with that of our own is a complex process that requires significant management attention and resources. The integration process may disrupt our existing and other newly acquired businesses and, if implemented ineffectively, could have an adverse impact not only on our ability to realize the benefits of a given acquisition but also on the results of our existing operations. Integration-related risks may be heightened in cases where acquired businesses’ operations, employees or customers are located outside our major markets and we incur
higher costs than anticipated due to regulatory changes, environmental factors or foreign exchange fluctuations. We continue to pursue strategic business acquisitions globally as a key part of our continuous growth strategy. If we are not able to achieve the anticipated benefits of any future acquisitions in full or in a timely manner, we could be required to recognize impairment losses, we may not be able to recoup our investment, and our business, financial position and results of operations could be materially and adversely affected. Particularly, we may be unable to achieve the expected revenues pursuant to licensing, co-promotion or co-development agreements or collaborations. We may also assume unexpected contingent or other liabilities, or be required to mark up the fair value of liabilities (or mark down the fair value of assets) acquired upon the close of an acquisition.
We may incur substantial costs due to our environmental compliance efforts or claims relating to our use, manufacture, handling, storage or disposal of hazardous materials.
Our research and development and manufacturing processes use hazardous materials, including chemicals and radioactive and biological materials, and produce hazardous waste. National and local laws and regulations in many of the jurisdictions in which we operate impose substantial potential liability for the improper use, manufacture, handling, storage and disposal of hazardous materials as well as for land contamination, and, in some cases, this liability may continue over long periods of time. Despite our compliance efforts, we cannot completely eliminate the risk of accidental contamination and any resultant injury from these materials. For example, real properties that we owned or used in the past or that we own or use now or in the future may contain detected or undetected contamination resulting from our manufacturing operations at those sites or the activities of prior owners or occupants. We may suffer from expenses, claims or liability which may fall outside of or exceed our insurance coverage. Furthermore, changes to current environmental laws and regulations may impose further compliance requirements on us that may impair our research, development and production efforts as well as our other business activities.
We
Our business may suffer large losses in the event of a naturalbe adversely affected by climate change, extreme weather events, earthquakes, civil or other disaster, such as an earthquake, terrorist attackpolitical unrest, terrorism or other catastrophic event, in anyevents.
In recent years, extreme weather events and changing weather patterns such as storms, flooding, droughts and temperature changes have become more common. As a result, we are potentially exposed to various natural disasters or extreme weather risks such as hurricanes, tornadoes, droughts or floods, typhoons, tidal waves, wildfires or other events that may result from the impact of climate change on the markets in which we operate.
environment. In addition, Japan, the U.S. and other regions in the world in which we operate are subject to the risk of earthquakes and other natural disasters includingsuch as earthquakes, tsunamis and/or volcanic eruptions, tidal waves, typhoons, floods and hurricanes. For example, the Great East Japan Earthquake and subsequent tsunami that occurred in March 2011 caused unprecedented property and other damage, although we did not incur any significant damage to our facilities. In addition, othereruptions. Other events outside our control, such as war, civil or political unrest, deliberate acts of sabotage, terrorism or industrial accidents such as fire and explosion, whether due to human or equipment error, could damage, cause operational interruptions, or otherwise adversely affect certain of our manufacturing or other facilities as well as potentially cause injury or death to our personnel. In the event of a major natural disaster or other uncontrollable event or accident, our facilities, particularly our production plants, may experience catastrophic loss, operations at such facilities may be halted, shipments of products may be suspended or delayed and large losses and expenses to repair or replace facilities may be incurred. Such negative consequences could cause product shortages, significant losses of sales or require significant unexpected expenditures, and materially adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations. In addition, our business may also be adversely affected if our suppliers or business partners were to experience a catastrophic loss due to natural disasters, terrorism, accidents or other uncontrollable events.
Although we purchase comprehensive global insurance to cover property damage and consequent business interruption for certain potential losses at sites owned by us and at certain critical supplier sites, we do not maintain earthquake insurance in Japan,policies to cover all potential losses and therefore our insurance policies may not be adequate to cover all possible losses and expenses. For instance, we do not maintain earthquake insurance in Japan.
We may experience difficulty implementing sustainability-related measures or in meeting the expectations of stakeholders.
In recent years, governmental and regulatory authorities, counterparties such as vendors and suppliers, investors, the public at large and others have increasingly focused on sustainability and social responsibility-related issues, particularly as they relate to the environment. Moreover, we have committed to reducing our carbon footprint, decreasing the waste created by our business and enhancing our water stewardship, and expect our vendors and suppliers to cooperate in these initiatives. However, we may be unable to meet such standards or achieve our goals, and our efforts to do so may for example impose significant additional costs on us, require us to seek alternative vendors or suppliers or impair our ability to procure or use certain materials. Conversely, if we are unable to meet such standards, we may not be able to continue to administer our business as we desire. Moreover, to the extent that we are unable to meet the expectations of stakeholders, including governmental and regulatory authorities, counterparties, investors, or the public, our reputation may be harmed, we may face increased compliance or other costs and demand for our securities and our ability to participate in the debt and equity markets may decrease. Furthermore, such standards and expectations are subject to ongoing change and refinement, and may shift in unexpected and potentially significant ways, which we may struggle to accommodate.
We may have to recognize additional charges on our statements of incomeprofit or loss due to impairment of goodwill, other intangible assets and equity method investments.
We carry significant amounts of goodwill and intangible assets on our balance sheetconsolidated statements of financial position as a result of past acquisitions, including the Shire Acquisition. As of March 31, 2019,2020, we had goodwill of ¥4,161.44,012.5 billion JPY and intangible assets of ¥4,860.4 billion.4,171.4 billion JPY. Goodwill and intangible assets recorded in relation to acquisitions are recognized on our balance sheetconsolidated statements of financial position on the acquisition date. Under IFRS, we are required to examine such assets for impairment annually or whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. See “ItemItem 5. Operating and Financial Review and Prospects—A.Prospects-A. Operating Results—CriticalResults-Critical Accounting Policies—ImpairmentPolicies-Impairment of Goodwill and Intangible Assets.”
We occasionally enter into business ventures with third-party entities where we have significant influence over the decisions on financial and operating policies, but do not have control or joint control (referred to as “investmentsinvestments in associates”)associates). We also enter into joint arrangements whereby we and the other parties that have joint control of the arrangement have rights to the net assets of the arrangement (referred to as “joint venture”)joint venture). We account for these investments using the equity method of accounting. As of March 31, 2019,2020, the carrying amount of investments accounted for using the equity method was ¥114.7 billion.107.3 billion JPY. Under IFRS, at each reporting period, we are required to determine whether there is objective evidence that the investment in each associate or joint venture is impaired.
The recognition of such impairment charges may adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.
If we fail to maintain effective internal control over financial reporting, the accuracy and timeliness of our financial reporting may be adversely affected, which could cause investors to lose confidence in our reported financial information and may lead to a decline in the trading price of our ADSs.
Our common stock is currently listed on the Tokyo Stock Exchange and other local Japanese stock exchanges, and we have established internal control over financial reporting pursuant to the requirements applicable to companies listed only in Japan. In addition, our ADSs are listed on the New York Stock Exchange (the “NYSE”), making us subject to, among other things, the requirements under the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 (the
“Sarbanes-Oxley “Sarbanes-Oxley Act”). The standards for internal control over financial reporting under the Sarbanes-Oxley Act are significantly more extensive than those applicable to companies listed only in Japan. For example, we will beare required, pursuant to Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act (“Section 404”), to furnish a report by management on, among other things, the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting. This assessment will need tomust include disclosure of any material weaknesses identified by our management in our internal control over financial reporting, as well as a statement that our independent registered public accounting firm has issued an opinion on our internal control over financial reporting. Pursuant to the instructions to Form 20-F, we expect to include this report in our next annual report filed with the SEC, which we currently expect will be filed by no later than July 31, 2020. We are still in the costly and challenging process
Neither our management nor independent registered public accounting firm has ever performed a comprehensive evaluation of our internal control over financial reporting in accordance with the provisions of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act because no such evaluation has been required, and we
We cannot be certain that material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting will not develop or be identified. Any failure to achieve and maintain adequate internal control over financial reporting or to implement required, new or improved controls, or difficulties encountered in their implementation could cause material weaknesses or other deficiencies in our internal control over financial reporting in the future. If we are unable to successfully remediate any material weaknesses or other deficiencies in our internal control over financial reporting, the accuracy and timing of our financial reporting may be adversely affected, and investors may lose confidence in our financial reporting, and the price of our ADSs may decline as a result. In addition, if we are unable to continue to meet these requirements, we may not be able to remain listed on the NYSE.
We are subject to additional risk due to uncertainty relating to the calculation of LIBOR, EURIBORLondon Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”), Euro Interbank Offered Rate (“EURIBOR”) and other reference rates and their potential discontinuance.
The JBIC Loan and the Term Loan Credit Agreement are subject to a floating interest rate calculated in reference to the LIBOR, while the floating rate Euro-denominated senior notes we issued in connection with the Shire Acquisition are subject to floating rate interest calculated in reference to EURIBOR. LIBOR, EURIBOR and other interestInterest rate, equity, commodity, foreign exchange rate and other types of indices which are deemed to be “benchmarks”benchmarks are the subject of ongoing national, international and other regulatory guidance and proposals for reform. Some of these reforms are already effective while others are still to be implemented. These reforms may cause such “benchmarks”benchmarks to perform differently than they have performed in the past or to be discontinued entirely or may have other consequences that cannot be predicted, which could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition or results of operations or require us to seek to amend the terms of the relevant indebtedness, which may require significant additional time, effort or money in the form of consent payments or otherwise, and may not be possible on cost-efficient terms or at all.
In particular, regulators and law enforcement agenciesThe LIBOR that is currently produced in seven tenors across various currencies will cease to be in use by the United Kingdom and elsewhere are conducting criminal and civil investigations into whether the banks that contribute information to the British Banker Association (the “BBA”) in connection with the daily calculationend of LIBOR may have been under-reporting or otherwise manipulating or attempting to manipulate LIBOR. A number of BBA members banks have entered into settlements with their regulators and law enforcement agencies, as well as the ICE Benchmark Administration (the current administrator of LIBOR), which may result in changes to the manner in which LIBOR is determined or the establishment of alternative reference rates. On July 27, 2017, the Chief Executive of the U.K. Financial Conduct Authority (the “FCA”), which regulates LIBOR, announced that the FCA will no longer persuade or compel banks to submit rates for the calculation of LIBOR after 2021. Such announcement indicates that the continuation of LIBOR on the current basis cannot and will not be guaranteed after 2021. Notwithstanding the foregoing, it appears highly likely that LIBOR will be discontinued or modified by 2021. A number of alternatives to LIBOR have been proposed or are being developed, but it is not clear which, if any, will be adopted. Any of these alternative methodsand may result in interest payments that are higher than expected or that do not otherwise correlate over time with the payments that would have been made on such indebtedness for the interest periods if the applicable LIBOR rate was available in its current form. More generally, any of the foregoing changes, any other changes to LIBOR as a result of national, international and other regulatory guidance and proposals for reform or other initiatives or investigations, or any further uncertainty surrounding the implementation of such changes, could have a material adverse effect on affected indebtedness.
At this time, it is not possible to predict the effect that these developments, any discontinuance, modification or other reforms to LIBOR EURIBOR or any other reference rate or the establishment of alternative reference rates may have on LIBOR, EURIBOR, other benchmarks or floating rate indebtedness.
Risks Relating to the ADSs
A holder of ADSs has fewer rights than a holder of our common stock has, and a holder of ADSs has to act through the depositary to exercise those rights.
The rights of shareholders under Japanese law to take various actions, including voting their shares, receiving dividends and distributions, bringing derivative actions, examining a company’s accounting books and records and exercising appraisal rights, are available only to holders of record. Because the depositary, through its custodian agents, is the record holder of the shares underlying the ADSs, only the depositary can exercise those rights in connection with the deposited shares. Pursuant to the deposit agreement, the depositary will endeavor, to the extent practicable, to make efforts to vote or cause to be voted the shares underlying the ADSs as instructed by the holders and will pay to the holders the dividends and distributions collected from the Company. The depositary and its agents may not be able to send voting instructions to holders of ADSs or carry out their voting instructions in a timely manner. Furthermore, the depositary and its agents will not be responsible for any failure to carry out any instructions to vote, for the manner in which any vote is cast or for the effect of any such vote. As a result, holders of ADSs may not be able to exercise their right to vote. Moreover, in the capacity as an ADS holder, such holder will not be able to bring a derivative action, examine the Company’s accounting books or records or exercise appraisal rights except through the depositary.
Rights of shareholders under Japanese law may be more limited than under the laws of other jurisdictions.
Our Articles of Incorporation, Regulations of the Board of Directors, Regulations of the Audit and Supervisory Committee and the Companies Act govern our corporate affairs. Legal principles relating to such matters as the validity of corporate procedures, directors’ and officers’ fiduciary duties, and shareholders’ rights may be different from those that would apply to a non-Japanese company. Shareholders’ rights under Japanese law may not be as extensive as shareholders’ rights under the laws of other jurisdictions. ADS holders may have more difficulty in asserting their rights as a shareholder than such holders would as shareholders of a corporation organized in another jurisdiction. In addition, Japanese courts may not be willing to enforce liabilities against the Company in actions brought in Japan that are based upon the securities laws of other jurisdictions.
Because of daily price range limitations under Japanese stock exchange rules, a holder of ADSs who has surrendered his or her ADSs in favor of shares of our common stock may not be able to sell his/her shares of our common stock at a particular price on any particular trading day, or at all.
Stock prices on Japanese stock exchanges are determined on a real-time basis by the equilibrium between bids and offers. These exchanges are order-driven markets without specialists or market makers to guide price formation. To prevent excessive volatility, these exchanges set daily upward and downward price fluctuation limits for each stock, based on the previous day’s closing price. Although transactions may continue at the upward or downward limit price if the limit price is reached on a particular trading day, no transactions may take place outside these limits. Consequently, a holder of ADSs who has surrendered his or her ADSs in favor of shares of our common stock wishing to sell on a Japanese stock exchange at a price above or below the relevant daily limit may not be able to sell his or her shares at such price on a particular trading day, or at all.
U.S. investors may have difficulty in serving process or enforcing a judgment against us or our directors or executive officers.
We are a limited liability, joint stock corporation incorporated under the laws of Japan. Many of our directors and executive officers reside in Japan, Europe or elsewhere outside of the United States,U.S., and a large portion of our assets and the assets of these persons are located in Japan and elsewhere outside the United States.U.S.. It may not be possible, therefore, for U.S. investors to effect service of process within the United StatesU.S. upon us or these persons or to enforce against us or these persons judgments obtained in U.S. courts predicated upon the civil liability provisions of the federal securities laws of the United States.U.S. There is doubt as to the enforceability in Japan, in original actions or in actions for enforcement of judgment of U.S. courts, of liabilities predicated solely upon the federal securities laws of the United States.U.S.
Investors holding less than a full unit of shares will have limited rights as shareholders.
Our Articles of Incorporation provide that 100 shares of our common stock constitute one unit. Although holders of ADSs may withdraw shares of our common stock constituting less than one unit, in connection with the direct holding of the shares of our common stock, the Companies Act imposes significant restrictions and limitations on holders of shares of our common stock that do not constitute a full unit. In general, holders of shares of our common stock constituting less than one unit do not have the right to vote with respect to those shares.
Dividend payments and the amount you may realize upon a sale of our ADSs will be affected by fluctuations in the exchange rate between the U.S. dollar and the Japanese yen.
Cash dividends, if any, in respect of the shares of our common stock represented by our ADSs will be paid to the depositary in Japanese yen and then converted by the depositary into U.S. dollars, subject to certain conditions. Accordingly, fluctuations in the exchange rate between the Japanese yen and the U.S. dollar will affect, among other things, the U.S. dollar amounts a holder of ADSs will receive from the depositary in respect of dividends, the U.S. dollar value of the proceeds that a holder of ADSs would receive upon sale in Japan of the shares of our common stock obtained upon surrender of ADSs and the secondary market price of ADSs.
Our shareholders of record on a given record date may not receive the dividend they anticipate.
The customary dividend payout practice of publicly listed companies in Japan may significantly differ from the practices widely followed or otherwise deemed necessary or fair in foreign markets. We ultimately have a discretion to determine any dividend payment amount to our shareholders of record as of a record date, including whether we will make any dividend payment to such shareholders at all, only after such record date. For that reason, our shareholders of record on a given record date may not receive the dividends they anticipate.
ADS holders may not be entitled to a jury trial with respect to claims arising under the deposit agreement, which could result in less favorable outcomes to the plaintiff(s) in any such action.
The deposit agreement governing the ADSs provides that, to the fullest extent permitted by law, ADS holders waive the right to a jury trial for any claim they may have against us or the depositary arising out of or relating to our shares, the ADSs or the deposit agreement, which may include any claim under the U.S. federal securities laws.
If we or the depositary were to oppose a jury trial based on this waiver, the court would have to determine whether the waiver was enforceable based on the facts and circumstances of the case in accordance with applicable state and federal law. To our knowledge, the enforceability of a contractual pre-dispute jury trial waiver in connection with claims arising under the federal securities laws has not been finally adjudicated by the United StatesU.S. Supreme Court. However, we believe that a contractual pre-dispute jury trial waiver provision is generally enforceable, including under the laws of the State of New York, which govern the deposit agreement, or by a federal or state court in the City of New York, which has jurisdiction over matters arising under the deposit agreement. In determining whether to enforce a contractual pre-dispute jury trial waiver, courts will generally consider whether
a party knowingly, intelligently and voluntarily waived the right to a jury trial. We believe that this would be the case with respect to the deposit agreement and the ADSs. It is advisable that prospective investors consult legal counsel regarding the jury waiver provision before investing in the ADSs.
As a result, if a holder or beneficial owner of ADSs brings a claim against us or the depositary in connection with matters arising under the deposit agreement or the ADSs, including claims under federal securities laws, such holder or beneficial owner may not be entitled to a jury trial with respect to such claims, which may have the effect of limiting and discouraging lawsuits against us or the depositary. If a lawsuit is brought against us or the depositary under the deposit agreement, it may be heard only by a judge or justice of the applicable trial court, which would be conducted according to different civil procedures and may result in different outcomes than a trial by jury would have, including outcomes that could be less favorable to the plaintiff(s) in any such action.
Nevertheless, if this jury trial waiver is not enforced under applicable law, an action could proceed under the terms of the deposit agreement with a jury trial. No condition, stipulation or provision of the deposit agreement or the ADSs serves as a waiver by any holder or beneficial owner of ADSs or by us or the depositary of compliance with any substantive provision of the U.S. federal securities laws and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder.

| A. | History and Development of the Company.Company |
We are a global, values-based, research and development (“R&D”) driven biopharmaceutical company with operations in approximately 80 countries. We bring highly innovative, life changing medicines to patients across the globe, with prescription drugs marketed directly or through our partners in approximately 100 countries worldwide. Our global workforce is committed to bringing better health and a brighter future to patients. We develop and market pharmaceutical products to treat a broad range of medical conditions including GI diseases, cancer, neurological and psychiatric diseases, andin gastroenterology (“GI”), rare diseases including immunologyrare metabolic, rare hematology and hematology,heredity angioedema, oncology, neuroscience, as well as plasma-derived therapiesPlasma-Derived Therapies (“PDT”) and vaccines. We are also committed to our corporate social responsibility program, which is dedicated to global health, and our access to medicine strategy, which aims to increase access to innovative and potentially lifesaving medicines for patients with some of the highest unmet medical needs across the world.
Our 238-year239-year history started in 1781, when Chobei Takeda began selling traditional Japanese and Chinese medicines in Doshomachi, Osaka. After Japan’s Meiji Restoration opened the country to increase overseas trade in the late 1860s, we were one of the first companies to begin importing western medicines into Japan. In 1895, we began our pharmaceutical manufacturing business, and our research division was formed in 1914, allowing us to begin to introducediscover our own pharmaceutical products. In 1925, we were incorporated as Chobei Takeda & Co., Ltd. and our name was later changed to Takeda Pharmaceutical Company Limited. In 1949, our shares were listed on the Tokyo and Osaka stock exchanges. We began expanding into overseas markets in the 1960s, first in Asia and, subsequently, other markets around the world. We began enhancing our overseas business infrastructure in the late 1990s, with the formation of new subsidiaries in the United StatesU.S. and Europe.
Since 2014, our efforts have been focused on enhancements to our research and developmentR&D capabilities and successful cross-border merger and acquisition activities and post-acquisition integration. For example, in February 2017, we acquired ARIAD Pharmaceuticals, Inc., a commercial-stage biotechnology company, and into obtain late stage assets for the treatment of cancer. In July 2018, we acquired TiGenix NV, an advanced biopharmaceutical company developing novel stem cell therapies for serious medical conditions, with the aim to bring new treatment options to patients with gastrointestinal disorders.
Most recently, we completed the acquisition of Shire in January 2019, we completed our acquisition of Shire.2019. With the Shire Acquisition, we have taken the nexttook a major step in our development into a global pharmaceutical company. The Shire Acquisition allowsallowed us to create a global, values-based, research and development-drivenR&D-driven biopharmaceutical company with an attractive geographic footprint withincluding a significantly increased presence in the United States,U.S., an important and innovation-driven market. Specifically, the Shire Acquisition strengthensstrengthened our core therapeutic areas, bringing together Takeda and Shire’s complementary positions in GI and neuroscience and providing leading positions in rare diseases and plasma-derived therapiesPDT to complement ourTakeda’s previously existing strength in oncology and focused efforts in vaccines. It also createscontributed to a highly complementary, robust, modality-diverse pipeline and a strengthened research and developmentR&D engine focused on innovation.
During the three fiscal years ended March 31, 2019,2020, we have also divested a number ofseveral businesses and assets in non-core areas. For example, in April 2017, we completed the sale of our shares in Wako Pure Chemical to FUIJIFILM Corporation and in December 2017, we entered into an agreement with Takashimaya Company Limited to sell our Tokyo Takeda building and the Takeda Shin-Edobashi building. Further, in July 2018, we sold and divested all our shares and assets in Multilab Indústria e Comércio de Produtos Farmacêuticos Ltda. to Novamed Fabricação de Produtos Farmacêuticos Ltda and in August 2018, we sold and divested all our shares and assets in Guangdong Techpool Bio-Pharma Co., Ltd. to Shanghai Pharmaceutical Holding Co. Ltd. We will continue to divest certaindivesting businesses and assets as we integrate Shire and focus onthat are not core to our core business. For example, on May 9, 2019, we announced the sales of two of our non-core businesses, Xiidra® (lifitegrast ophthalmic solution) and TachoSil™ (Fibrin Sealant Patch). For additionaloperations to accelerate deleveraging. See Item 5.A, Operating Results, for further details on these transactions, see Note 33 to our audited consolidated financial statements included in this annual report.divested businesses and assets.

Initiatives to Mitigate the Effect of COVID-19
Takeda’s response to the COVID-19 outbreak is focused on three priorities:
Safeguarding employees and their families, and reducing the impact of COVID-19 on the healthcare system.
Maintaining business continuity, especially the supply of Takeda medicines to patients.
Developing potential therapies to treat or prevent COVID-19.
In order to address the issues relating to COVID-19, in January 2020 we organized a Global Crisis Management Committee, and we are taking a number of initiatives with the support of internal and external experts. The committee is co-led by Takeda’s Chief Global Corporate Affairs Officer and the President of our Global Vaccines Business Unit, with support from cross-functional working group.
With regards to measures to safeguard employees, we have initiated work from home policies and enhanced our technology to support such initiatives. We have applied our telework guidance broadly to our global employees including as many of our customer facing employees as possible, especially those who interact with health care professionals. We also have canceled all non-essential travel and are discouraging the gathering of large groups of employees. For our employees who are required to continue to work on-site in our manufacturing, laboratory, and bio-life plasma donation facilities, we have implemented enhanced safety measures to mitigate the spread of the virus.
In order to maintain business continuity, we are managing levels of inventory, including assessing alternative suppliers for the production of our medicines, to secure product supply continuity for patients. This strategy is generally applied across our global supply chain for key starting materials, excipients, raw materials, APIs, and finished products. We are tracking the situation as it evolves and will take all necessary actions in an effort to ensure supply continuity for the people we serve.
In R&D, working alongside our Contract Research Organization partners, we are taking measures to minimize the disruption to ongoing clinical trials. We are assessing and developing solutions, including through direct-to-patient home delivery of study medicines and remote monitoring of patients. We have, however, placed a temporary pause on the initiation of new clinical trials, with the exception of CoVIg-19, a potential anti-SARS-CoV-2 polyclonal hyperimmune globulin medicine to treat individuals with serious complications from COVID-19.
CoVIg-19 is an example of Takeda’s initiatives to develop potential therapies to combat COVID-19. We joined with global plasma companies to form the CoVIg-19 Plasma Alliance in April 2020, guided by our values of putting patients first, setting aside individual company interests to work together with multiple partners. In doing so, we can focus on expediting the process to develop and deliver a potential therapy for COVID-19. In addition, we are also evaluating existing internal assets as potential therapies for COVID-19, while also researching novel approaches.
Finally, Takeda is also aiding the COVID-19 response through donations, including approximately 25 million USD to non-profit organizations including the Red Cross and United Nations-led organizations, while also providing in-kind donations.
Research and Development
Research and developmentThe R&D of pharmaceutical products is a lengthy and expensive process that can span more than 10 years. The process includes evaluations of themultiple studies to evaluate a product’s efficacy and safety, application for approvalfollowed by submission to regulatory authorities who review the data and investigation and approval by regulatory authorities.decide whether to grant marketing approval. Only a small number of compounds pass such detailedrigorous investigation and are usedbecome available for use in clinical treatments.treatment. Once approved, there is ongoing research and developmentR&D support for marketed products, including medical affairs and other investments.
Clinical trials, which must comply with regional and international regulatory guidelines, generally take five to seven years or longer and require substantial expenditures. As a result, only a small fraction of compounds that enter the clinical trials results in commercially viable products. In general, clinical trials are performed in accordance with the guidelines set by the International Conference on Harmonisation of Technical Requirements for Registration of Pharmaceuticals for Human Use. The relevant regional regulatory authorities areinclude the FDA for the U.S, the EMA for the EU, the MHLW for Japan, the FDA for the United States and the EMANational Medical Products Administration (“NMPA”) for the EU.China.
The three phases of human clinical trials, which may overlap with each other, are as follows:
|
| |
| Phase I (“P-I”) clinical trials | Conducted using a small group of healthy adult volunteers in order to evaluate safety and the absorption, distribution, metabolism and excretion of the drug. |
| Phase II (“P-II”) clinical trials | Conducted using a small group of patient volunteers in order to evaluate safety, efficacy, dosage and administration methods. P-II clinical trials may be divided into two sub-categories, P-IIa and P-IIb. P-IIa are usually pilot studies designed to demonstrate clinical efficacy or biological activity. P-IIb studies look to find the optimum dose at which the drug shows biological activity with minimal side-effects. |
| Phase III (“P-III”) clinical trials | Conducted using a large number of patient volunteers in order to evaluate safety and efficacy in comparison to other medications already available or placebo. |
Of these three phases, Phase III requires the largest expenditures and thus the decision to proceed with Phase III testing is a critical business decision in the drug development process. For those drug candidates that pass Phase III clinical trials, a New Drug Application ("NDA"(“NDA”) or a Marketing Authorization Application (“MAA”) is submitted to the relevant governmental authorities for approval, andwhich if granted permits the subsequent launch of the drug. The preparation of an NDA or MAA submission involves considerable data collection, verification, analysis and expense. Even after the launch of the product, health authorities require post-marketing surveillance of adverse events, and they may request a post-marketing study to provide additional information regarding the risks and benefits of the product.
In July 2016, we initiatedTakeda’s R&D engine is focused on translating science into highly innovative, life-changing medicines that make a five-year researchcritical difference to patients. Takeda supports dedicated R&D efforts across three areas: Innovative Biopharma, PDT and development transformation program to re-invigorateVaccines. The R&D engine for Innovative Biopharma, the pipeline and build an agile, global research and development organization driven by innovative science. A significantlargest component of our R&D investment, has produced exciting new molecular entities (“NMEs”) that represent potential best-in-class and/or first-in-class medicines in areas of high unmet medical need across our core Therapeutic Areas (Oncology, Rare Diseases, Neuroscience, and GI). Over the program has been an intensive focuspast several years, and more recently bolstered by our acquisition of Shire, we have also harnessed the potential of cell and gene therapies by investing in the following three key areas:
Therapeutic area focus: Leveraging therapeutic area expertise to progress innovative assets.
Partnerships new capabilities and capabilities: Enhancing capabilitiesnext-generation platforms internally and through external collaborations.
Innovative research engine: Developing new technologies and new modalities to treat disease.
Our research and development efforts are focused in four key therapeutic areasa network of oncology, GI, rare diseases and neuroscience, plus the plasma-derived therapies and vaccines business areas.
We have also concentrated our in-house research and development operations in Japan and the United States. We intend to integrate the legacy Shire research and development operations into ours.

Availability of Raw Materials
In the ordinary course of business, we purchase raw materials and supplies essential to our operations from suppliers around the world. While we develop and manufacture the active ingredients used in some of our products at our own facilities, we are dependent on third-party suppliers for a portion of the raw materials and compounds used in some of thecertain other products we produce. We believe that, in the event we are unable to source any products or ingredients from any of our major suppliers, we could replace those products or substitute ingredients from other suppliers, although we may not be able to do so without significant difficulty or significant increases in our cost of goods sold. While efforts are made to diversify our sources of components and materials, in certain instances we acquire components and materials from a sole supplier.
We are dependent on human donors for the supply of human plasma. Human plasma, which is a critical active ingredient in our plasma derivedplasma-derived therapies. We source human plasma internally and externally through a distinctive and flexible infrastructure, which provides us an enhanced capability with respect to the consistent delivery of high-quality plasma-based products. We own and operate plasma collection facilities, principally in the U.S., Austria, Hungary and Czech Republic, and we also maintain relationships with other plasma suppliers for external sourcing to ensure that we retain the flexibility to meet market demand for our plasma-based therapies. In the event that there is a material disruption to the supply of plasma, for which there is no substitute, this could interfere with production and ultimately supply of our plasma-derived therapies.
We closely monitor, continuously review and revise the supply sourcing strategy for our products to identify in a timely manner any risks in our supply chain, including risks arising from our dependency on outsourced manufacturing relationships with third party suppliers. Where necessary, inventory levels of either key materials andor finished products are managed strategically to address potential risks relating to operational and quality issues, production capacity and single sourcing among others. For critical and new technologystrategic products, we have decided to make significant long-term capital investments to build internal manufacturing capacity and secure dual sources to reduce the current dependency on outsourced manufacturing relationshiprelationships with third-party suppliers.
Manufacturing
Following the acquisition of Shire in January 2019, we will continue to operate locally with the ability to access global manufacturing and distribution networks as required.Manufacturing
The manufacturemanufacturing of our products is highly regulated by governmental health authorities around the world, including the FDA, EMA and PMDA. Furthermore, many of our products involve technically complex manufacturing processes or may require a supply of highly specialized raw materials.
We manufacture certain products of our productsours in our own facilities worldwide.within our global manufacturing network. In addition, we source certain other of our products from third-party contract manufacturers. We have a network forof over 300130 contract manufacturers which support approximately 30%90% of our products in different capacities such as active pharmaceutical ingredients production and sourcing, bulk drug product, aseptic fill finish and final packaging. We manage the risks associated with reliance on single sources of production by carrying additional inventories.
Sales and Marketing
Our primary sales and marketing activities are organized around United States,regional business units focused on the U.S., Japan, Pharma, Europe-Canada (“EUCAN”)Europe and Canada, and Growth and Emerging Markets. These business units make focused investments that support the growth potential of our portfolios in the market and enhance efficiency.each market.
The United StatesU.S. is the largest pharmaceutical market in the world.world, and is also Takeda’s largest region by revenue. The United States business unit focuses(“USBU”) is focused on the successful uptake of recently approved products such asENTYVIO, TRINTELLIX,ADYNOVATE, and TAKHZYRO, as well as continuing to grow more established productscore promoted brands such asENTYVIO, TRINTELLIX, VYVANSE, ADVATEADYNOVATE and GAMMAGARDLIQUID.Immunoglobulin products. These and other principal products are supported by significant investment in marketing and sales force promotion.
The Japan Pharma business unit focuses(“JPBU”) is focused on retaining ourTakeda’s position as one of the leading pharmaceutical companies in our home market of Japan, whereJapan. Although we continue to promote our strong primary care portfolio with the Japanese government is driving stricter control of drug prices and promoting the penetration of generics.generics, our strategy is to shift focus more towards the uptake of our highly innovative and differentiated specialty medicines such as ENTYVIO, ADCETRIS, and NINLARO.
The EUCANEurope and Canada (“EUCAN”) business unit focuses on a specialized approach in the European and Canadian markets, where public insurance has set a higher bar for the reimbursement of medicines, requiring innovation and clear differentiation in order for the products to be reimbursed. As Canada’s health insurance system is very similar to that of Europe, the Canadian market is managed by the EUCAN business unit.
The Growth and Emerging Markets business unit focuses on maximizing growth potential in areas across the Asia Pacific, Greater China, Latin America, Near East, Middle East and Africa and Russia/CIS. In particular, China is a key focus market for us in the medium-term, with the potential for over 15 new drug approvals in the region over the next five years.
Intellectual Property
An important part of our business strategy is to protect our products and technologies using patents and trademarks, to the extent available. We rely on trade secrets, proprietary know-how, technological innovations and contractual arrangements with third parties to maintain and enhance our competitive position. Our commercial success depends, in part, upon our ability to obtain and enforce strong patents, to maintain trade secret protection, to operate without infringing the proprietary rights of others and to comply with the terms of licenses granted to it. Due to the lengthy development periods for new drugs, the high costs of research and developmentR&D and the small percentage of researched compounds that reach the market, the protection of intellectual property plays an important role in the return of investments for research and developmentR&D of a new drug.
We seek patent protection for proprietary technology whenever possible in the U.S., Japan and major European countries. Where practicable, we seek patent protection in other countries on a selective basis. In all cases, we endeavor to either obtain patent protection itself or support patent applications through licensors. Patents are our primary means of protecting the technologies we use. Patents provide the holder with the right to exclude others from using an invention related to a pharmaceutical product. We use various types of patents to protect our pharmaceutical products, including substance patents, which cover active ingredients, as well as patents covering usage, manufacturing processes and formulation of drugs.
Our low molecule products (small molecules) are mainly protected by substance patents. While the expiration of a substance patent usually results in a loss of market exclusivity for the protected pharmaceutical products, commercial benefits may continue to be protected by non-substance patents such as patents relating to the use of such substance, patents relating to the method of use of such substance, patents relating the manufacturing method of such substance, and patents relating to the new composition or formulation of such substance. The products can be also protected by regulatory data protection under relevant law in each country even if the substance patent expired. While our biologics products can and may be protected by one or more substance patents, certain products may be protected by non-substance patents and/or regulatory data protection. However, for biologics, patent protection may be less important than for traditional pharmaceutical products, as similar products for the same indication and/or biosimilars may be developed and marketed by competitors without infringing on our patents.
In the United States,U.S., patents generally expire twenty20 years after the filing date of the application, subject to potential patent term adjustments for delays in patent issuance based upon certain delays in prosecution by the United StatesU.S. Patent and Trademark Office. A U.S. pharmaceutical patent that claims a product, method of treatment using a product or method of manufacturing a product may also be eligible for a patent term extension based on the time the FDA took to approve the product. This type of extension may only extend the patent term for a maximum of five years and may not extend the patent term beyond fourteen years from regulatory approval. Only one patent may be extended for any product based on FDA delay. In addition to patent exclusivities, the FDA may provide data or market exclusivity for a new chemical entity or an “orphanorphan drug,” each of which run in parallel to any patent protection. Regulatory data protection or exclusivity prevents a potential generic competitor from relying on clinical trial data that were generated by the sponsor when establishing the safety and efficacy of its competing product for a period of five years for a new chemical entity, or seven years for an orphan drug. Market exclusivity prohibits any marketing of the same drug for the same indication.
In Japan, a patent can be issued for active pharmaceutical ingredients by the Japan Patent Office (“JPO”). Although methods of treatment, such as dosage and administration, are not patentable in Japan, pharmaceutical compositions for a specific dosage or administration method as well as processes to make a pharmaceutical composition are patentable. Patents in Japan generally expire 20 years after the filing date of the patent application. Patents for pharmaceuticals may be extended for up to five years, depending on the amount of time spent for the drug approval process. Japan also has a regulatory data protection system called a “re-examination period”re-examination period of eight years for pharmaceuticals that contain new active pharmaceutical ingredients and four years to six years for new indications and formulations and a ten-year orphan drug exclusivity system.
In the EU, patent applications may be filed in the European Patent Office (“EPO”) or in a country in Europe. The EPO system permits a single application to be granted for the EU, plus certain other non-EU countries, such as Switzerland and Turkey. When the EPO grants a patent, it is then validated in the countries that the patent owner designates. TheWhile the term of a patent granted by the EPO or a European country office may be extended or adjusted, it is generally 20 years from the filing date of the patent application. Pharmaceutical patents covering an approved medicinal product can be granted a further period of exclusivity under the Supplementary Protection Certificate (“SPC”) system. SPCs are designed to compensate the owner of the patent for the time it took to receive marketing authorization by the European Medicines Agency or the National Health Authorities. An SPC may be granted to provide, in combination with the patent, up to 15 years of exclusivity from the date of the first European marketing authorization. However, an SPC cannot last longer than five years. The SPC duration can additionally be extended by a further Pediatric Extension of six months if the SPC relates to a medicinal product for children for which data has been submitted according to a Pediatric Investigation Plan ("PIP"(“PIP”). The post-grant phase of patents, including the SPC system, is currently administered on a country-by-country basis under national laws. Therefore, although regulations
concerning patents and SPCs have been created at EPO and EU level, respectively, due to different national implementation they may not always lead to the same result, for example, if challenged at National Courts in the various EU countries. The EU also provides a system of regulatory data exclusivity for authorized human medicines, which runs in parallel to any patent protection. The system for drugs being approved today is usually referred to as “8+8+2+1”1 rule because it provides an initial period of eight years of data exclusivity, during which a competitor cannot rely on the relevant data, a further period of two years of market exclusivity, during which the data can be used to support applications for marketing authorization but the competitive product cannot be launched and a possible one-year extension of the market exclusivity period if, during the initial eight-year data exclusivity period, the sponsor registered a new therapeutic indication for the concerned drug. However, the additional one-year extension is only available if either no therapy exists for the new indication or if the concerned product provides for the new indication a "significant“significant clinical benefit over existing therapies"therapies”. This system applies both to national and centralized authorizations. The EU also has an orphan drug exclusivity system for medicines similar to the U.S system. If a medicine is designated as an orphan drug, it benefits from ten years of market exclusivity, during which time a similar medicine for the same indication will not receive marketing authorization. Under certain circumstances, this exclusivity can be extended with a two-year Pediatric Extension for completion of a PIP.
Worldwide, we experience challenges in the area of intellectual property from factors such as the penetration of generic versions of our products following the expiry of the relevant patents and the launch by competitors of over-the-counter versions of our products. Our Global General Counsel is responsible for the oversight of our Intellectual Property operations, as well as our legal operations. Our Intellectual Property Department supports our overall corporate strategy by focusing efforts on three main themes:
maximization of the value of our products and research pipeline and protection of related rights aligned to the strategies of our therapeutic area units;
facilitation of more dynamic harnessing of external innovation through partner alliance support; and
securing and protection of intellectual property rights around the world, including in emerging markets.
As infringement of our intellectual property rights poses a risk of loss of expected earnings derived from those rights, we have internal processes in place to manage patents and other intellectual property. This program includes both remaining vigilant against patent infringement by others as well as exercising caution, starting at the research and developmentR&D stage, to ensure that our products and activities do not violate intellectual property rights held by others.
In the regular course of business, our patents may be challenged by third parties. We are party to litigation or other proceedings relating to intellectual property rights. Details of material ongoing litigation are provided in Note 32 to our audited consolidated financial statements included in this annual report.
The following table describes our outstanding substance patents and the regulatory data protection (“RDP”) (US(U.S. and EU) or re-examination period (“RP”) (Japan) for the indicated product by territory and expiry date. The table includes RDP or RP information only if the protection provided by regulatory exclusivity exceeds the patent expiry. Patent term extensions (“PTE”), supplemental protection certificates (“SPC”),SPC, and pediatric exclusivity periods (“PEP”) are reflected in the expiry dates to the extent they have been granted by the issuing authority. For PTE’s, SPC’s, and PEP’s in which the application is in process but not yet granted, the extended expiry is separately provided.
Our biologic products may face or already face competition from companies who produce similar products for the same indications, and/or biosimilars, regardless of expiry dates below. Certain of the European patents are the subject of supplemental protection certificates that provide additional protection for the product in certain countries beyond the dates listed in the table.

Licensing and Collaboration
In the ordinary course of business, we enter into arrangements for licensing and collaboration for the development and commercialization of products with third parties. Our business does not materially depend on any one of these arrangements. Instead they form a portion of our strategy and give us the ability to leverage a mix of internal and external resources to develop and commercialize new products. Certain of the agreements which that have led to successful commercialization to date are summarized below:
ADCETRIS: We entered into a Collaboration Agreement with Seattle Genetics in 2009 for the global co-development of ADCETRIS and its commercialization around the world (other than the U.S. and Canada, where ADCETRIS is commercialized by Seattle Genetics). We may be required to pay milestone payments related to regulatory and commercial progress by us under the collaboration. We also pay tiered royalties with percentages ranging from the mid-teens and to the mid-twenties based on net sales of ADCETRIS within our licensed territories. We and Seattle Genetics equally co-fund the cost of selected development activities conducted under the collaboration. Either party may terminate the collaboration for cause, or by mutual consent. We may terminate the collaboration at will, and Seattle Genetics may terminate the collaboration in certain circumstances. If neither party terminates the collaboration agreement, then the agreement automatically terminates on the expiration of all payment obligations. As of March 31, 2019, our aggregate2020, there are no further incremental potential development and commercial milestone payments remaining under the ADCETRIS collaboration were $47.5 million.collaboration.
TRINTELLIX: We entered into a License, Development, Supply and Commercialization Agreement with H. Lundbeck A/S in September 2007 for the exclusive co-development and co-commercialization in the United StatesU.S. and Japan of several compounds in Lundbeck’s pipeline for the treatment of mood and anxiety disorders, under whichthe agreement, we commercialize TRINTELLIX in the U.S. TRINTELLIX has not yet been launched inU.S and Japan. Under the agreement, we and Lundbeck have agreed to jointly develop the relevant compounds, with most of development funding from us. Revenues for TRINTELLIX are booked by us, and we pay to Lundbeck a portion of our sales, as well as tiered royalties ranging from the mid-teenslow to twentiesmid-teens on the portion of sales retained by us. We have also agreed to pay to Lundbeck certain development and commercialization milestone payments relating to regulatory and commercial progress under the collaboration. The term of the agreement is indefinite, but the agreement may be terminated by mutual decision of the parties or for cause. As of March 31, 2019,2020, our aggregateincremental potential development and commercial milestone payments under the TRINTELLIX collaboration were $130.0 million.5 million USD.
AMITIZA: In October 2004, we entered into an agreement with Sucampo Pharmaceuticals (subsequently acquired by Mallinckrodt) to purchase, develop and commercialize AMITIZA for gastrointestinal indications in the U.S. and Canada. The initial term of the agreement is through December 31, 2020, after which the agreement continues automatically until terminated by us. We purchase AMITIZA from Mallinckrodt under the agreement at an agreed upon price and pay tiered royalties on sales in North America ranging fromin the high teens, to mid-twenties, resetting each year. Beginning on January 1, 2021, we will share equally with Mallinckrodt in the net annual sales revenue from branded AMITIZA sales. We have agreed to fund development costs, including regulatory-required studies, subject to agreed-upon caps, with excess costs being shared equally, with certain exceptions. We have a similar agreement with Mallinckrodt covering the rest of the world, except for Japan and the People’s Republic of China. We have agreed to additional commercial milestone payments contingent on the achievement of certain net sales revenue targets, and to provide a minimum annual commercial investment during the term of the agreement, which we may reduce when a generic equivalent enters the market. As of March 31, 2019, our aggregate2020, there are no further incremental potential commercial milestone payments remaining under the AMITIZA collaboration were $50.0 million. collaboration.

Regulation
The pharmaceutical industry is subject to extensive global regulation by regional, national, state and local agencies. The regulatory agencies and their regulations govern the testing, approval, production, labeling, distribution, post-market surveillance, advertising, dissemination of information and promotion of our products. The following is a description of the major regulations affecting our products in the United States,U.S., Japan and the EU, our largest markets.
The introduction of new pharmaceutical products generally entails a lengthy approval process. Products must be authorized or registered prior to marketing, and such authorization or registration must subsequently be maintained. In recent years, the registration process has required increased testing and documentation for the approval of new drugs, with a corresponding increase in the expense of introducing a new product introduction.to market. To register a pharmaceutical product, a registration dossier containing evidence establishing the safety, efficacy and quality of the product must be submitted to regulatory authorities. Generally, a therapeutic product must be registered in each country in which it will be sold. It is possible that a drug can be registered and marketed in one country while the registration authority in another country may, prior to registration, request additional information from the pharmaceutical company or even reject the product. It is also possible that a drug may be approved for different indications in different countries. The registration process generally takes between six months and several years, depending on the country, the quality of the data submitted, the efficiency of the registration authority’s procedures and the nature of the product. Many countries provide for accelerated processing of registration applications for innovative products of therapeutic interest. In recent years, efforts have been made among the U.S., Japan and the EU to harmonize registration requirements to achieve shorter development and registration times for medical products.
United States
In the United States,U.S., applications for drug registration are submitted to and reviewed by the FDA, which regulates the testing, manufacturing, labeling and approval for marketing of pharmaceutical products intended for commercialization. The FDA continues to monitor the safety of pharmaceutical products after they have been approved for sale in the U.S. market. When a pharmaceutical company has gathered data to demonstrate a drug’s safety,
efficacy and quality, it may file for the drug an NDA or Biologics License Application (“BLA”), along with information regarding the clinical experiences of patients tested in the drug’s clinical trials. A supplemental new drug application ("sNDA"(“sNDA”) or BLA amendment must be filed for new indications for a previously approved drug.
Once an application is submitted, the FDA assigns reviewers from its staff, including experts in biopharmaceutics, chemistry, clinical microbiology, pharmacology/toxicology, and statistics. After a complete review, these content experts then provide written evaluations of the NDA or BLA. These evaluations are consolidated and are used by senior FDA staff in its final evaluation of the NDA or BLA. Based on that final evaluation, the FDA then provides to the NDA or BLA’s sponsor an approval, or a “complete response” letter if the NDA or BLA application is not approved. If not approved, the letter will state the specific deficiencies in the NDA or BLA which need to be addressed. The sponsor must then submit an adequate
response to the deficiencies to restart the review procedure. Once the FDA has approved an NDA, BLA, sNDA or BLA amendment, the company can make the new drug available for physicians to prescribe. The drug owner must submit periodic reports to the FDA, including any cases of adverse reactions. For some medications, the FDA requires additional post-approval studies (Phase IV) to evaluate long-term effects or to gather information on the use of the product under specified conditions. Throughout the life cycle of a product, the FDA requires compliance with standards relating to good laboratory, clinical and manufacturing practices. The FDA also requires compliance with rules pertaining to the manner in which we may promote our products.
The Drug Price Competition and Patent Restoration Term Act of 1984, known as the Hatch-Waxman Act, established the application procedures for obtaining FDA approval for generic forms of brand-name drugs. Under these procedures, instead of conducting full-scale pre-clinical and clinical trials, the FDA can accept data establishing that the drug formulation, which is the subject of an abbreviated application, is bio-equivalent and has the same therapeutic effect as the previously approved drug, among other requirements. This act also provides market exclusivity provisions for brand-name drugs that can delay the submission and/or the approval of abbreviated new drug applications (the “ANDAs”),ANDAs, which are the applications for generic drug registrations. The Orphan Drug Act of 1983 grants seven years of exclusive marketing rights to a specific drug for a specific orphan indication. The term “orphan drug” refers, generally, to a drug that treats a rare disease affecting fewer than 200,000 persons in the U.S. Marketmarket exclusivity provisions are distinct from patent protections and apply equally to patented and non-patented drug products.
While the Hatch-Waxman ActAmendments addresses the development and entranceapproval of generic products,drugs, the Patent ProtectionBiologics Price Competition and Innovation Act of 2009 (the “BPCIA”), enacted in the Affordable Care Act (the "ACA"“ACA”) amended the Public Health Service Act (the “PHS Act”) to create an abbreviated licensure pathway for biological products that are demonstrated to be “biosimilar” to, or “interchangeable”, with an FDA-licensed biologicalreference product. The Biologics Price Competition and Innovation Act of 2009BPCIA allows for approval of a biosimilar if data substantiates that the productit is “highly similar” to anand has no clinically meaningful differences from its approved and existing biological product. Furthermore, as codified in the 2016 Physician Fee Schedule Final Rule, effective January 1, 2016, the physician reimbursement amount for a biosimilar is based on the average sales price (the “ASP”) of all National Drug Codes (the “NDCs”) assigned to the biosimilars included within the same billing and payment code. Similar toIn general, this meant that CMS grouped biosimilar products that were licensed with a non-biologic product, an interchangeable biological product may be substituted for thecommon reference product by a pharmacist withoutwith the intervention ofsame payment limit and HCPCS code. However, effective January 1, 2018 under the health care provider who prescribed the reference product. Generally, there will be2018 Physician Fee Schedule Final Rule, newly approved biosimilar biological products with a common physician reimbursement limitreference product were no longer grouped into the same billing code. Instead, biosimilars are separately coded and Healthcare Common Procedure Coding System (the “HCPCS”) codepaid for those biosimilars referenced to the original product filed under the BLA.Medicare Part B.
Japan
Manufacturers and sellers of drugs, quasi-drugs, cosmetics, medical devices and regenerative medical products (collectively the “Designated Products”) in Japan are subject to the supervision of the Minister of Health, Labour and Welfare (the “Minister”)MHLW primarily under the Act on Securing Quality, Efficacy and Safety of Pharmaceuticals, Medical Devices, Regenerative and Cellular Therapy Products, Gene Therapy Products, and Cosmetics of Japan (the “Pharmaceutical Act”).
Under the Pharmaceutical Act, a person is required to obtain from the Minister the relevant licenses in order to conduct the business of manufacturing, marketing or selling Designated Products.
Applications for the approval of new products are made through the PMDA. The data of results of clinical trials and other pertinent data must be attached forto an application for approval. If the drugs, medical devices or regenerative medical products under application are of types designated by ministerial ordinance of the MHLW, the attached data mentioned above must be obtained in compliance with the standards established by the Minister, such as the Good Laboratory Practice (the “GLP”) and the Good Clinical Practice (the “GCP”). Once an application for approval is submitted, a review team is formed, which consists of specialized officials of the PMDA, including chemistry/manufacturing, non-clinical, clinical, and biostatistics. Team evaluation results are passed to the PMDA’s external experts, who then report back to the PMDA. After a further team evaluation, a report is provided to the Minister; the Minister makes a final determination for approval and refers this to the Council on Drugs and Foods Sanitation, which then advises the MHLW on final approvability. Marketing and distribution approvals require a review to determine whether or not the product in the application is suitable as a drug to be manufactured and distributed by a person who has obtained a manufacturing and distribution business license for the type of drug concerned, and to confirm that the product has been manufactured in a plant compliant with Good Manufacturing Practice.the GMP.
Once the MHLW has approved the application, the company can make the new drug available for physicians to prescribe. After that, the MHLW lists its NHI price within 60 days (or 90 days at the latest) from the approval, and physicians can obtain reimbursement. For some medications, the MHLW requires additional post‑marketing studies (Phase IV) to further evaluate safety and/or to gather information concerning the quality, efficacy, and safety of the product under specified conditions.conditions, in addition to post marketing surveillance including Early Post-marketing Phase Vigilance (“EPPV”) based on risk management plan (“RMP”) for all new medications. The MHLW also requires the drug’s sponsor to submit periodic safety update reports. Within three months from the specified re‑examination period, which is designated at the time of the approval of the application for the new product, the company must submit a re‑examination application to enable the drug’s quality, efficacy, and safety to be reassessed against approved labeling by the PMDA.
The Pharmaceutical Act also provides for special regulations applicable to drugs, quasi-drugs, cosmetics and medical devices made of biological raw materials. These regulations impose various obligations on manufacturers and other persons in relation to manufacturing facilities, explanation to patients, labeling on products, record-keeping and reporting to the Minister.
Under the Pharmaceutical Act, the Minister may take various measures to supervise manufacturing and marketing license holders of Designated Products. The Minister has authority to order manufacturing and marketing license holders to temporarily suspend the marketing, leasing or providing of the Designated Products to prevent risks, or increases in risks, to the public health. Also, the Minister may revoke a license or approval granted to a manufacturing and marketing license holders or order a temporary business suspension under certain limited circumstances such as violation of laws relating to drugs.
European Union
In the EU, there are three main procedures for application for authorization to market pharmaceutical products in the EU Member States: the Centralized Procedure, the Mutual Recognition Procedure (the “MRP”) and the Decentralized Procedure (“the DCP”(the “DCP”). It is also possible to obtain a pure national authorization for products intended for commercialization in a single EU Member State only, or for additional indications for licensed products.
Under the Centralized Procedure, applications are made to the EMA for an authorization which is valid throughout the EU. The Centralized Procedure is mandatory for all biotechnology products and for new chemical entities in cancer, neurodegenerative disorders, diabetes and AIDS, autoimmune diseases or other immune dysfunctions and optional for other new chemical entities or innovative medicinal products or in the interest of public health. When a pharmaceutical company has gathered data which it believes sufficiently demonstrates a drug’s safety, efficacy and quality, then the company may submit an application to the EMA. The EMA then receives and validates the application and the Committee for Medicinal Products for Human Use (the “CHMP”) appoints a Rapporteur and Co-Rapporteur to lead review of the dossier. The entire review cycle must be completed within 210 days, although there is a “clock stop” at day 120, which allows the company to respond to questions set forth in the Rapporteur and Co-Rapporteur’s Assessment Report. After the company’s complete response is submitted to the EMA, the clock restarts on day 121. If there are further aspects of the dossier requiring clarification, the EMA will then request an Oral Explanation on day 180, in which case the sponsor must appear before the CHMP to provide the requested additional information. On day 210, the CHMP will then take a vote to recommend the approval or non-approval of the application. The final decision under this Centralized Procedure is a European Community decision which is binding in its entirety on all EU Member States. This decision occurs on average 60 days after a positive CHMP recommendation. In the case of a negative opinion, a written request for re-examination of the opinion can be made by the applicant within a time limit of 15 days from the date of the opinion. The detailed grounds for re-examination must be submitted to the EMA within 60 days from the date of the opinion. In the EU, biosimilars are approved under a specialized pathway of the centralized procedure. Similar to the pathway in the U.S., applicants seek and obtain regulatory approval for a biosimilar once the data exclusivity period for the original reference product has expired relying in part on the data submitted for the original reference product together with data evidencing that the biosimilar is “highly similar” in terms of quality, safety and efficacy to the original reference product authorized in the European Economic Area.
Under both the MRP and DCP, the assessment is led by a single EU Member State, called the Reference Member State (the “RMS”), which then liaises with other EU Member States, known as the concerned member states (the “CMSs”). In the MRP, the company first obtains a marketing authorization in the RMS, which is then recognized by the CMSs in 90 days. In the DCP, the application is done simultaneously in the RMS and all CMSs. During the DCP, the RMS drafts an assessment report within 120 days. Within an additional 90 days, the CMSs review the application and can issue objections or requests for additional information. On day 90, each CMS must be assured that the product is safe and effective, and that it will cause no risks to the public health. Once an agreement has been reached, each member state grants national marketing authorizations for the product.
After the Marketing Authorizations have been granted, the company must submit periodic safety reports to the EMA, if approval was granted under the Centralized Procedure, or to the National Health Authorities, if approval was granted under the DCP or the MRP. In addition, several pharmacovigilance measures must be implemented and monitored including Adverse Event collection, evaluation and expedited reporting and implementation, as well as update Risk Management Plans. For some medications, post approval studies (Phase IV) may be required to complement available data with additional data to evaluate long term effects (called a Post Approval Safety Study) or to gather additional efficacy data (called a Post Approval Efficacy Study).
European Marketing Authorizations have an initial duration of five years. After this first five-year period, the holder of the marketing authorization must apply for its renewal, which may be granted based on the competent authority’s full benefit-risk review of the product. Once renewed, the marketing authorization is generally valid for an unlimited period. Any Marketing Authorization which is not followed within three years of its granting by the actual placing on the market in any EU member state of the corresponding medicinal product ceases to be valid.
Third Party Reimbursement and Pricing
We consider domestic and international competitive conditions, such as the price of competing products, in setting and revising the price of our pharmaceutical products. Government regulation also has a significant effect in determining the price of pharmaceutical products in many of the countries in which we operate due to the fact that government policy in many countries has emphasized and purchasers continue to seek large discounts on pharmaceutical products.
United States
In the United StatesU.S. our sales are subject to various rebate programsvoluntary and government programs,mandatory rebates, which vary depending on the type of coverage and can have a significant impact on our results. The most significant of these include rebates associated with commercial managed care, Medicaid, Medicare and other government programs.
Commercial Managed Care
Payers negotiate rebates to reduce the pricing of products, and use formularies to encourage members to utilize preferred products to manage their costs. Exclusion from a formulary, or a disfavored formulary position, can directly reduce product usage. Consolidation of payers, pharmacy benefit managers and pharmacies may result in increasing rebates and other discounts due to the purchasing power of the consolidated entities. Copay assistance to help patients afford their prescribed drugs may also affect product usage. In recent years, some states such as California and Massachusetts, have
passed legislation that limits the use of manufacturer sponsored copay assistance programs, and some payers have limited manufacturer copay assistance benefits to patients.
Medicaid
Medicaid is a state administered program adhering to federal requirements that provides healthcare coverage to eligible low-income adults, children, pregnant women, elderly adults and people with disabilities.
Takeda must pay rebates on purchases of our products under the Medicaid Drug Rebate Program. This includes a mandatory minimum rebate and an inflation penalty if our prices have increased above inflation. These rebates guarantee that any patient in the Medicaid program can have access to Takeda’s products, although there could be significant utilization management imposed by the state. In addition to the mandatory rebates, Takeda may also choose to offer supplemental rebates to a state or Medicaid managed care organization to ensure Takeda’s drugs are on the preferred drug list (which is similar to a formulary for Medicaid programs). Takeda must also calculate and report to government agencies the amount of the rebate. The required calculations are complex, and a misrepresentation in the reported information may expose Takeda to penalties. We are required to report any revisions to prior calculations, which could affect the rebate liability for prior quarters.
Medicare
The Medicare Prescription Drug Program hasis a federally-run program that provides healthcare to persons age 65 and over, and certain persons under age 65 who have a long-term disability and meet certain eligibility requirements. Drugs are primarily covered under two arms,different benefits for Medicare beneficiaries, Medicare Part DB and Medicare Part B.D. Medicare Part B covers outpatient health and medical services, which includes some drugs under the medical benefit. These drugs tend to be the most biologically complex and are generally administered in a doctor’s office or hospital outpatient setting. Medicare Part D is a voluntary drug offering available to Medicare beneficiaries through private health insurance plans that contract with the government to deliver this benefit. Medicare
Part B covers some drugs under the medical benefit, that are among the most biologically complex; these medicines are generally administered by infusion or injection in a doctor’s office or hospital outpatient setting.
Takeda offerssetting, as well as certain drugs furnished by suppliers. Medicare pays physicians and outpatient hospitals for most separately payable Part B-covered drugs they furnish to beneficiaries at a rate of 106 percent of the manufacturer-reported ASP before sequestration. A product’s ASP reflects the average price realized by the manufacturer for sales to all purchasers net of rebates, on purchases of pharmaceutical products covereddiscounts, and price concessions with certain exceptions. There are no rebates for drugs reimbursed under Medicare Part D. In addition, Takeda and other pharmaceutical manufacturers are required to provide a discount of 70% on drugs used in the Medicare Part D coverage gap. B.Takeda must also calculate and report specific prices to government agencies, including Average Sales PriceASP used by the Medicare Part B program. The required calculations are complex, and a misrepresentation in the reported pricing may expose Takeda to penalties.
Part D covers most of other outpatient prescription drugs. Rather than Medicare setting prices administratively, Medicare pays Part D plan sponsors (health plans offering the benefit) that, through their pharmacy benefit managers (the “PBMs”), contract with pharmacies over payment rates for each prescription filled by an enrollee and negotiate with drug manufacturers for prices and post-sale rebates. Takeda may offer a rebate as part of the negotiation between plan sponsors and manufacturers to ensure that our products are on the formulary. In addition, the Part D program also has an additional mandatory rebate during part of the year, when beneficiaries are in the Medicare Part D coverage gap. Pharmaceutical manufacturers are required to provide a discount of 70% on brand drugs used during that portion of the benefit.
340B and Federal Agency Discounted Pricing
Takeda must offer discounted pricing for purchases by certain designated health care entities and federal agencies under certain federal programs, including the Public Health Service (PHS)(the “PHS”) pharmaceutical pricing program (340B)(“340B”) and the Federal Supply Schedule (FSS.(the “FSS”).
The 340B program was designed to assist safety net hospitals that serve a disproportionate share of indigent patients by requiring manufacturers, as a stipulation of participation in the Medicaid Drug Rebate Program, to provide deep discounts on covered outpatient drugs. The discounts adhere to a statutory formula, per product, that requires manufacturers to charge no more than a certain price. Entities that may apply to participate in the 340B program include qualifying hospitals, federal grantees, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, and the Indian Health Service.
The FSS is a list of contracts and prices for frequently used supplies and services available for purchase by federal agencies and other entities such as the U.S. territories and tribal governments. Although there are no statutory ceilings on prices, the government often uses a favored price as a starting point in negotiations to obtain below-market prices.
Health Care System Reform
Any sudden changeFor the past few years, there has been an increased focus and downward pressure on pricing which we expect to continue for a variety of circumstantial reasons. There are a number of legislative and regulatory proposals under consideration that would impact how drugs are reimbursed in the current health care system runs the risk of restrictingU.S., could restrict patient access, and placing all parties athave financial risk. Spurred by the Administration’s priority to bring down the cost of drug prices, a number of changes to the Medicare Part D and Part B programs are being proposed - these changes may impact patient access and affordability, and may adversely affect our business by impacting demandimplications for or pricing of, our products. The Trump Administration’s Blueprint to Lower Drug Prices and Reduce Out of Pocket Costs and the resulting regulatory activity has already changed the way companies behave with fewer and lower price increases in 2018 than 2017.manufacturers.
Japan
In Japan, manufacturers of pharmaceutical products must have new products listed on the National Health Insurance (the NHI)“NHI”), a price list published by the Ministry of Health, Labour and Welfare of Japan (the MHLW).MHLW. The NHI price list provides rates for calculating the price of pharmaceutical products used in medical services provided under various public medical care insurance systems. Prices on the NHI price list have been subject to revisions generally once every two years based on the actual prices at which the pharmaceutical products are purchased by medical institutions in Japan after discounts and rebates from the listed price. The average price of previously listed products generally decreases as a result of these price revisions. The Japanese government is currently undertaking healthcare reform initiatives with the goal of sustaining the universal coverage of the NHI program, and is addressing the efficient use of drugs, including the promotion of generic use with a target of 80% penetration by volume by September 2020 with respect to products for which market exclusivity has expired. As part of these initiatives, the NHI price list is expected to be revised annually from April 1, 2021, which could lead to more frequent downward price revisions. In addition, a cost-effectiveness analysis was officially introduced by the MHLW fromin April 2019. Products on the NHI price list nominated based on pre-defined criteria, such as the innovativeness and the financial impact, will be subject to review, and subject to price adjustments depending on the outcome of this review.
European Union
In the EU, our operations are subject to significant price and marketing regulations. Many governments in the EU are introducing healthcare reforms to curb increasing healthcare costs. The governments in the EU influence the price of pharmaceutical products through their control of national healthcare systems that fund a large part of the cost of such products to patients. The general downward pressure on healthcare costs, particularly regarding prescription drugs, has been increasing. In addition, prices for marketed products are referenced within and amongst the EU Member States, which further affects pricing in each EU Member State. As an additional control for healthcare budgets, some EU Member States have passed legislation to impose further mandatory rebates for pharmaceutical products and financial claw-backs on the pharmaceutical industry. In this regard, many countries have health technology assessment organizations that use formal economic metrics such as cost-effectiveness to determine prices, coverage and reimbursement of new therapies, and these organizations are expanding in established and emerging markets. We expect that countries will continue to take aggressive actions to seek to reduce expenditures on drugs and biologics. Similarly, fiscal constraints may also affect the extent to which countries are willing to approve new and innovative therapies and/or allow access to new treatments.
Furthermore, the European UnionThe EU is currently undergoing an analysis of the rewards extended for intellectual property of pharmaceutical products as well as the overall regulatory framework for the approval and commercialization of all medicinal products. This may lead to significant changes in the way drugs are approved and commercialized as well as the duration of exclusivity, in particular for orphan drugs. These changes are likely to affect the market within a 3-5-year timeframe.
Furthermore, certain European countries also utilize tendering to secure prescription drugs at controlled price level. Takeda often participates in tendering in these regions, which usually results in significant price discount.
Other
Many other countries around the world are also taking steps to control prescription drug prices. For example, in 2017, China - one of ourthe most important markets in our Growth and Emerging Growth Markets business - organized national price negotiations for certain products directly linked to national drug reimbursement, which will apply nationwide both in public and military hospitals. Drug prices in China may further decline due to a stated national policy of reducing healthcare costs, including continued strategic initiatives specifically designed to reduce drug prices. Canada has proposed amendments to its Patented Medicines Regulations that could reduce prices for specialty medicines, such as biologics and medicines for rare diseases. Furthermore, certain other countries also utilize tendering process to control prescription drugs, in which Takeda often participates.

| A. | Operating Results.Results |
Overview
We have grown both organically and through acquisitions, completing a series of major transactions that have resulted in growth in our areas of therapeutic, geographic and pipeline focus. In particular, our acquisition of Shire in January 2019 strengthened our presence in GI and neuroscience, while providing us with a leading position in rare disease and plasma drivenplasma-derived therapies. It also enhanced our research and developmentR&D pipeline and created a highly complementary, robust, modality-diverse pipeline. Commercially, the Shire Acquisition significantly strengthened our presence in the United States.U.S. As a result of the acquisition of Shire, we incurred significant indebtedness to finance the cash portion of the consideration. We plan to de-lever following the Shire Acquisition using cash flows from operationsoperating activities and we are initiating disposals of non-core assets to accelerate the pace of deleveraging and to refocus our business on our key business areas of GI, rare diseases, plasma-derived therapies,PDT, oncology, and neuroscience.
We organize our business as a single operating segment, reflecting the presentation of information to our management for the purposes of allocating resources, measuring performance and forecasting future periods. InFor the fiscal year ended March 31, 2019,2020, our revenue was ¥2,097.2 billion, ourand operating profit was ¥205.0 billion.were 3,291.2 billion JPY and 100.4 billion JPY, respectively.
Factors Affecting Our Results of Operations
Our results are affected by the global industry trends and operating environment as described in Item 4 of this annual report and other factors described below.
Acquisitions
We may acquire new businesses to expand our research and developmentR&D capabilities (including expanding into new methodologies) and to acquire new products (whether in the development pipeline or at the marketing stage) or other strategic regions. Similarly, we regularly divest businesses and product lines to maintain our focus on our key growth drivers and to manage our portfolio.
We account for these acquisitions as business combinations and record the assets acquired and liabilities acquiredassumed at fair value. Our results are impacted due to the impacts of purchase accounting, which typically includes fair value step-ups of inventory and property, plant and equipment and recognized material intangible assets which result in costs related to unwind of the step up and amortization expense, respectively, in future periods. Our results are also impacted due to additional interest expenses when an acquisition is financed with incremental borrowings.
On January 8, 2019, we acquired Shire for an aggregate consideration of ¥6.216.21 trillion JPY, of which ¥3,029.43,029.4 billion JPY was paid in cash and the remainder mainly in shares of our common stock. We incurred ¥3,295.93,295.9 billion inJPY of indebtedness in order to finance the cash portion of the consideration, and as a result of the Shire Acquisition assumed ¥1,603.21,603.2 billion JPY of indebtedness of Shire which is included in our consolidated statementstatements of financial position. WeDuring the fiscal year ended March 31, 2019, we recorded goodwill of ¥3,087.43,087.4 billion JPY and intangible assets of ¥3,899.33,899.3 billion in relationJPY as of the acquisition date of Shire as a result of the preliminary purchase price allocation. During the fiscal year ended March 31, 2020, such purchase price allocation was completed and fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed were retrospectively adjusted including retrospectively adjusted goodwill and intangible assets of 3,165.5 billion JPY and 3,769.1 billion JPY as of the acquisition date, respectively. See Note 31 to our audited consolidated financial statements for further details of completed purchase price allocation related to the Shire Acquisition.
The acquisition of Shire has significantly changed our business through, among other things, the significant expansion of our product portfolio and geographic presence. Our results will beare significantly impacted by the Shire Acquisition with an increase to our revenues, and associated costs, and the impact of the acquisition including incremental amortization expenses related to the acquired intangible assets, incremental cost of sales resulting from the unwinding of the inventory fair value step up, the interest expense associated with the borrowings used to fund the acquisition, and the costs incurred to integrate the
business. We are actively engaged in integrating Shire and expect to be able to achieve significant, recurring pre-tax synergies at a run rate of approximately $2.02.3 billion USD annually by March 31, 2022, the end of the third fiscal year after the completion of the Shire Acquisition, originating from efficiencies in the combined company’sCompany’s sales, marketing and administrative functions, research and developmentR&D rationalization efforts and product manufacturing and supply. We estimate that the realization of these recurring synergies will require non-recurring costs of approximately $3.03.0 billion inUSD cumulatively through the first three fiscal years following the completion of the Shire Acquisition.same date. We believe that the substantial cash flow generation expected to result from the Shire Acquisition will enable us to maintain our well-established dividend policy and de-lever following completion.continue deleveraging. We have begun initiating the disposal ofare also disposing certain non-core assets and businesses to increase the pace of de-leveraging our debt.
On February 16, 2017, we acquired ARIAD Pharmaceuticals, Inc. for a net consideration of ¥583.1 billion. Headquartered in Cambridge, Massachusetts in the United States, ARIAD was a commercial-stage biotechnology company focusing on discovering, developing and commercializing precision therapies for patients with rare forms of chronic and acute leukemia, lung cancer and other rare cancers.accelerate deleveraging.
As a result of our acquisitions, and the impacts described above, our results year over year may not be comparable.
Divestitures
In addition to acquisitions, we divest businesses and product lines to maintain our focus on our key growth drivers and to manage our portfolio and to provide additional cash flow to accelerate the repayment of long-term borrowings.debts. The following are major divestitures completed or announced from the fiscal year ended March 31, 2018 to the fiscal year ended March 31, 2020.
In April 2017, we completed the sale of our shares in Wako Pure Chemical to FUJIFILMFUIJIFILM Corporation for a sale price of ¥198.5198.5 billion JPY, for which we recognized a gain of ¥106.3106.3 billion JPY in the fiscal year ended March 31, 2018. Wako Pure Chemical generated revenue of ¥76.6 billion and ¥79.1 billion for the fiscal years ended March 31, 2016 and 2017, respectively. There was no revenue recognized related to Wako Pure Chemical for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2018.

Patent Protection and Generic Competition
For pharmaceutical products, in particular, patent protection and/or regulatory exclusivity benefit our results of operations by restricting competition. Newly introduced products, particularly those which treat conditions for which alternative treatments may not be readily available, in particular may significantly contribute to sales. However, even protected products must compete with products of other manufacturers based on efficacy, lack of adverse reactions and price. On the other hand, the loss or expiration of patent protection or regulatory exclusivity with respect to any of our principal products could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations, as generic products, which tend to be quickly adopted once introduced, may enter the market. Some of our principal products face, or are expected to face, considerable competition due to the expiration of patent or other intellectual property protection. For example, following the expiration of patent protection over bortezomib, the active ingredient in VELCADE, one of our largest selling products in the United States,U.S., a competing bortezomib-containing product has been introduced. This has led to a decrease in sales of VELCADE, and further entry of competing products could result in substantial additional declines. In certain cases, generic competitors may successfully challenge the validity of patents, or the manufacturer may decide that the benefits of prematurely launching “at risk” the generic drug outweigh the costs of defending infringement litigation. In situations where the validity of patents or the value of the protection is challenged, we may record impairment losses with respect to the relevant intangible property.
Impact of the Availability of Raw Materials
Our results of operations may be impacted if we are not able to internally or externally source critical raw materials. For example, human plasma is a critical raw material in our plasma derived therapies.PDT. Efforts to increase the collection of plasma may include the contracting and regulatory approval of additional plasma collection facilities and plasma fractionation facilitates. During the year ended March 31, 2019, our results of operations were impacted by the fact that the demand to produce plasma derived therapies was greater than the supply of critical raw material needed.
Foreign Exchange Fluctuations
In the fiscal year ended March 31, 2019, 72.8%2020, 82.0% of our revenue was from outside of Japan, and we expect this ratio to further increase when we consolidate a full year of Shire results.Japan. Changes in foreign exchange rates, particularly for the U.S. dollar and the euro, relative to the yen, which is our reporting currency, will impact our revenues and expenses. When the yen weakens against other currencies, our revenues attributable to such other currencies increase, having a positive impact on our results of operations, which may be offset by increased expenses denominated in such currencies.
Conversely, when the yen strengthens against other currencies, our revenues attributable to such currencies decrease, having a negative impact on our results of operations, which may be offset by decreased expenses denominated in such currencies. To mitigate the risk exposed by foreign exchange fluctuations, we utilize certain hedging measures with respect to some of our significant foreign currency transactions, primarily forward exchange contracts, currency swaps and currency options for individually significant foreign currency transactions.
Periodic Trends
Our revenues, operating profit and net income were lower in the fourth quarter of each of the fiscal years ended March 31, 2017, 2018, 2019 and 2019,2020, due mainly to fluctuations in sales in Japan. Japanese pharmaceutical product wholesalers generally control their inventory more tightly towards their fiscal year ends, typically March 31, which causeshas historically decreased revenue in the fourth fiscal quarter. Japanese pharmaceutical product wholesalers also tend to increase purchases ahead of the New Year holidays, historically causing a concentration of sales in our third fiscal quarter, from October 1 to December 31.
Critical Accounting Policies
Our consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with IFRS. The preparation of our consolidated financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amount of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reported period. On an ongoing basis, management evaluates its estimates and assumptions. Management bases its estimates and assumptions on historical experience and on various other
factors that it believes to be reasonable at the time the estimates and assumptions are made. Actual outcomes may differ from those estimates and assumptions.
We believe the following critical accounting policies are affected by management’s estimates and assumptions, changes to which could have a significant impact on our consolidated financial statements.
Revenue Recognition
OurTakeda’s revenue is primarily related to the sale of pharmaceutical products and is generally recognized when control of the products is passed to the customer in an amount that reflects the consideration to which weTakeda expect to be entitled in exchange for those products. OurControl is generally transferred at the point in time of shipment to or receipt of the products by customer, or when the services are performed. The amount of revenue to be recognized is based on the consideration Takeda expects to receive in exchange for its goods and services. If a contract contains more than one contractual promise to a customer (performance obligation), the consideration is allocated based on the standalone selling price of each performance obligation. The consideration Takeda receives in exchange for its goods or services may be fixed or variable. Variable consideration is only recognized when it is highly probable that a significant reversal will not occur.
Takeda’s gross sales are subject to various deductions, which are primarily composed of rebates and discounts to retail customers, government agencies, wholesalers, health insurance companies and managed healthcare organizations. These deductions represent estimates of the related obligations, requiring the use of judgement when estimating the effect of these sales deductions on gross sales for a reporting period. These adjustments are deducted from gross sales to arrive at net sales. Takeda monitors the obligation for these deductions on at least a quarterly basis and record adjustments when rebate trends, rebate programs and contract terms, legislative changes, or other significant events indicate that a change in the obligation is appropriate. Historically, adjustments to rebate accruals have not been material to net earnings. The U.S. market has the most complex arrangements related to revenue deductions.
The following summarizes the nature of the most significant adjustments to revenue:
U.S. Medicaid and Medicare:Medicaid: The U.S. Medicaid Drug Rebate Program is administered by state governments using state and federal funds to provide assistance to certain vulnerable and needyqualifying individuals and families.families who cannot finance their own medical expenses. Calculating the rebates to be paid related to this program involves interpreting relevant regulations, which are subject to challenge or change in interpretative guidance by government authorities. Provisions for Medicaid rebates are calculated usingestimated based upon identifying the products subject to a combination ofrebate, historical experience, product and population growth,patient demand, product pricing and the mix of contracts and specific terms in the individual state agreements. The provisions for Medicaid rebates are recorded in the same period that the corresponding revenues are recognized; however, the Medicaid rebates are not fully paid until subsequent periods. There is often a time lag of several months between Takeda recording the revenue deductions and Takeda’s final accounting for Medicaid rebates. These expected product specific assumptions relate to estimating which of the Takeda’s revenue transactions will ultimately be subject to the U.S. Medicaid program.
U.S. Medicare: The U.S. Federal Medicare Program, which funds healthcare benefits to individuals age 65 or older and certain disabilities, provides prescription drug benefits under Part D section of the program. This benefit is provided and administrated through private prescription drug plans. Provisions for Medicare Part D rebates are calculated based on the terms of individual plan agreements, product sales and population growth,patient demand, product pricing and the mix of contracts. The provisions for Medicare Part D rebates are recorded in the same period that the corresponding revenues are recognized; however, the Medicare Part D rebates are not fully paid until subsequent periods. There is often a time lag of several months between usTakeda recording the revenue deductions and ourTakeda’s final accounting for Medicare and MedicaidPart D rebates. These expected product specific assumptions relate to estimating which of the Takeda’s revenue transactions will ultimately be subject to the U.S. Medicare program.
Customer rebates: Customer rebates including commercial managed care in the U.S. are offered to purchasing organizations, health insurance companies, managed healthcare organizations, and other direct and indirect customers to sustain and increase market share, and to ensure patient access to ourTakeda’s products. Since rebates are contractually agreed upon, the related provisions are estimated based on the terms of the individual agreements, historical experience, and projectedpatient demand. The provisions for commercial managed care rebates in the U.S. are recorded in the same period that the corresponding revenues are recognized; however, commercial managed care rebates in the U.S. are not fully paid until subsequent periods. There is often a time lag of several months between Takeda recording the revenue deductions and Takeda’s final accounting for commercial managed care rebates in the U.S. These expected product growth rates.specific assumptions relate to estimating which of the Takeda’s revenue transactions will ultimately be subject to the commercial managed care in the U.S.
Wholesaler chargebacks: We haveTakeda has arrangements with certain indirect customers whereby the customer is able to buy products from wholesalers at reduced prices. A chargeback represents the difference between the invoice price to the wholesaler and the indirect customer’s contractual discounted price. Provisions for estimating chargebacks are calculated based on the terms of each agreement, historical experience and product growth rates.demand. Takeda has a legally enforceable right to set off the trade receivables and chargebacks and it intends either to settle them on a net basis or to realize the asset and settle the liability simultaneously. Thus the provision for chargebacks are recorded as a deduction from trade receivables on the consolidated statements of financial position.
Return reserves: When we sellTakeda sells a product providing a customer the right to return it, we record a provision for estimated sales returns based on our sales return policy and historical return rates. We estimate the proportion of recorded revenue that will result in a return by considering relevant factors, including past product returns activity, the estimated level of inventory in the distribution channel and the shelf life of products.
Because the amounts are estimated, they may not fully reflect the final outcome, and the amounts are subject to change dependent upon, amongst other things, the type of purchasing organization, end consumer, and product sales mix.
Historically, our adjustmentsTakeda generally receives payments from customers within 90 days after the point in time when goods are delivered to the customers. Takeda usually performs those transactions as a principal, but Takeda also sells products on behalf of estimates,others in which case revenue is recognized at an amount of sales commission that Takeda expects to reflect actual results or updated expectations,be entitled as an agent.
Takeda also generates revenue in the form of royalty payments, upfront payments, and milestone payments from the out-licensing of intellectual property (“IP”). Royalty revenue earned through a license is recognized when the underlying sales have not been materialoccurred. Revenue from upfront payment is generally recognized when Takeda provides a right to our overall business. Product-specific rebates, however, can haveuse IP. Revenue from milestone payments is recognized at the point in time when it is highly probable that the respective milestone event criteria is met, and a significant impact on year- over-year individual product growth trends. If anyreversal in the amount of our ratios, factors,revenue recognized will not occur. Revenue from other services such as R&D of compounds that are out-licensed is recognized over the service period.

The sensitivity of our estimates can vary by program, type of customermet. Takeda licenses its own intellectual property rights to customers and geographic location.performed those transactions as a principal. Takeda also provides other services as a principal.
Impairment of Goodwill and Intangible Assets
We review long-lived intangible assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstance indicate that the asset’s balance sheet carrying amount may not be recoverable. Goodwill and other currently not amortized intangible assets are reviewed for impairment at least annually. As of March 31, 2019,2020, we have ¥4,161.44,012.5 billion JPY of goodwill and ¥4,860.44,171.4 billion JPY of intangible assets which in aggregate represent 65.0%63.8% of our total assets.
Intangible assets related to commercially marketed products are amortized using the straight-line method over the estimated useful life, which is based on expected exclusivity period, ranging from three to 20 years. Intangible assets related to in-process research and development (“IPR&D”) product rights are not amortized until the product is approved for sale by regulatory authorities in specified markets. At that time, we will determine the useful life of the asset and begin amortization.
Assets are generally considered impaired when their balance sheet carrying amount exceeds their estimated recoverable amount. The recoverable amount is estimated for each individual asset or at the larger cash generating unit level when cash is generated in combination with other assets. Goodwill is allocated to cash generating units, or groups of cash generating units based on expected synergies as determined and the recoverable amount is estimated at the cash generating unitthat level. Our cash generating units or group of cash generating units are identified basebased on the smallest identifiable group of assets that generate independent cash inflows and are represented by the countries where we sell our products.inflows. The estimation of recoverable value requires us to make a number of assumptions including:
amount and timing of projected future cash flows;
behavior of competitors (launch of competing products, marketing initiatives, etc.);
probability of obtaining regulatory approvals;
future tax rates;
terminal growth rate; and
discount rate.
Events that may result in the change in cash flows include IPR&D projects which are not successfully developed, and/or commercially marketed products whose value becomes impaired, fail during development, are abandoned or subject to significant delay or do not receive the relevant regulatory approvals.approvals and/or commercially marketed products whose value becomes impaired. If these events were to occur, we may not realize the future cash flows that we have estimated nor recover the value of the initial or subsequent R&D investments made subsequent to acquisition of the asset project.
Due to changes in these assumptions in subsequent periods, we have recognized impairments and reversal of impairments related to intangible assets during the periods presented. See Notes 11 and 12 to our audited consolidated financial statements.
Retirement and Other Post-Employment Benefit Plans
We sponsor pension and other post-employment benefit plans that cover a significant portion of our employees. We are required to make significant assumptions and estimates about future events in calculating the expense and the present value of the liability related to these plans. These include assumptions about the interest rates we apply to estimate future defined benefit obligations and net periodic pension expense, as well as rates of future pension increases. In addition, our actuarial consultants provide our management with historical statistical information such as withdrawal and mortality rates in connection with these estimates. Assumptions and estimates used by us may differ materially from the actual results we experience due to changing market and economic conditions, higher or lower withdrawal rates, and longer or shorter life spans of participants among other factors. See Note 22 to our audited consolidated financial statements for sensitivity information related to the most significant assumptions. A significant change in the assumptions in future periods could have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements. As of March 31, 2019,2020, we have net defined benefit liabilities of ¥156.5 billion.156.6 billion JPY.
Business Combination – Fair value
Accounting for a business combination requires us to estimate the fair value of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed and the value of any contingent consideration. The estimate of fair value requires us to make a number ofseveral assumptions including estimated future cash flows, discount rates, development and approval milestones, expected market performance and for contingent consideration the likelihood of payment. New information about facts and circumstances existing at the acquisition date may be obtained within one year of the acquisition date that would give rise to measurement period adjustments. These adjustments may be made to the provisional fair values of assets and liabilities previously recognized or may result in the recognition of additional assets and liabilities, and they are applied on a retrospective basis with comparative prior periods revised in subsequent financial statements to include the effect of those adjustments. During the fiscal year ended March 31, 2020, the adjustments principally relate to certain intangible assets which consist of marketed products for which the future sales forecast is one of the assumptions used in estimating their respective fair values.
Contingent consideration is recorded at fair value at the end of each period. The changes in the fair value based on time value of money are recognized in Finance expenses while other changes are recognized in Other operating income or Other operating expenses on the consolidated statementstatements of income.profit or loss. During the fiscal year ended March 31, 2019, the2020, financial liabilities associated with contingent consideration arrangements decreased by 8.1 billion JPY due to change in fair value of contingent consideration reduced the amount to be paid to us by ¥2.2 billion.value.
Our estimates are based on our prior experiences and industry knowledge. We believe that our estimates are reasonable, but actual outcomes could differ significantly from our estimates. A significant change in our estimates used to value acquired asset groups or business combinations could result in future write-downs of tangible or intangible assets acquired by us and could, therefore, materially impact our financial position and profitability. If the value of the liabilities assumed by us, including contingent liabilities, is determined to be significantly different from the amounts previously recorded in purchase accounting, we may need to record additional expenses, which could materially impact our financial position and profitability.
Legal Contingencies
We are involved in various legal proceedings primarily related to product liability and commercial liability arising in the normal course of our business. These contingencies are described in detail in Note 32 to our consolidated financial statements.
These and other contingencies are, by their nature, uncertain and based upon complex judgments and probabilities. The factors we consider in developing our provision for litigation and other contingent liability amounts include the merits and jurisdiction of the litigation, the nature and the number of other similar current and past litigation cases, the nature of the product and the current assessment of the science subject to the litigation, and the likelihood of settlement and current state of settlement discussions, if any. In addition, we record a provision for product liability claims incurred, but not filed, to the extent we can formulate a reasonable estimate of their costs based primarily on historical claims experience and data regarding product usage. We also consider the insurance coverage we have to diminish the exposure for periods covered by insurance. In assessing our insurance coverage, we consider the policy coverage limits and exclusions, the potential for denial of coverage by the insurance company, the financial condition of the insurers, and the possibility of and length of time for collection. Any provision and the related estimated insurance recoverable have been reflected on a gross basis as liabilities and assets, respectively, on our consolidated balance sheets.statements of financial position. As of March 31, 2019,2020, we have a provision of ¥46.849.7 billion JPY for outstanding legal cases and other disputes.
Income Taxes
We prepare and file our tax returns based on an interpretation of tax laws and regulations, and we record estimates based on these judgments and interpretations. In the normal course of business, our tax returns are subject to examination by various taxingtax authorities, which may result in additional tax, interest or penalty assessment by these authorities. Inherent uncertainties exist in estimates of many tax positions due to changes in tax law resulting from legislation, regulation, and/or as concluded through the various jurisdictions’ tax court systems. When we conclude that it is not probable that a taxingtax authority will accept an uncertain tax position, we recognize the best estimate of the expenditure required to settle a tax uncertainty. The amount of unrecognized tax benefits is adjusted for changes in facts and circumstances. For example, adjustments could result from significant amendments to existing tax law, the issuance of regulations or interpretations by the taxingtax authorities, new information obtained during a tax examination, or resolution of a tax examination. We believe our estimates for uncertain tax positions are appropriate and sufficient based on currently known facts and circumstances.
We also assess our deferred tax assets to determine the realizable amount at the end of each period. In assessing the recoverability of deferred tax assets, we consider the scheduled reversal of taxable temporary differences, projected future taxable profits, and tax planning strategies. Based on the level of historical taxable profits and projected future taxable profits during the periods in which the temporary differences become deductible, we determine the amount the tax benefits we believe are realizable. As of March 31, 2019,2020, we had unrecognizedthe unused tax losses, deductible temporary differences, and unused tax credits for which deferred tax benefitsassets were not recognized of ¥259.41,580.2 billion.billion JPY, 333.3billion JPY, and 9.3billion JPY, respectively. A change in our estimates and assumptions in future periods could have a significant impact on our income tax provision.
Restructuring Costs
We incur restructuring costs associated with planned initiatives to reduce our costs and in connection with the integration of our acquisitions. Our most significant restructuring costs are severance payments and lease termination costs. We establish a provision for restructuring costs when the plan has been approved, the cost can be estimated, and the amount is probable of payment. The recognition of restructuring provision requires a number ofseveral estimates including timing of payments and the number of individuals that will ultimately remain with the company to receiveafter receiving severance. As a result of these estimates, the actual restructuring costs could differ from our estimates.
We expect to incur additional restructuring costs in the future related to the integration efforts associated with our acquisitions and divestitures. As of March 31, 2019,2020, we have a provision of ¥49.745.0 billion JPY for restructuring costs. See Note 23 to our audited consolidated financial statements included in this annual report for a further description of our restructuring provisions and the change between periods.

Year-on-year change in revenue for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2020 in each of our main therapeutic areas was primarily attributable to the following products:
GI. In GI, revenue was 697.9 billion JPY, a year-on-year increase of 158.6 billion JPY, or 29.4%. Growth was driven by ENTYVIO (for ulcerative colitis (“UC”) and Crohn’s disease (“CD”)), Takeda’s top-selling product, with sales of 347.2 billion JPY, a year-on-year increase of 78.0 billion JPY, or 29.0%. Market share growth in the U.S. and in Europe was driven by further penetration in the bio-naïve segment in UC and CD, combined with increased overall market share. In Japan, it obtained an additional indication for CD in the first quarter of the fiscal year ended March 31, 2020. Sales of TAKECAB (for acid-related diseases) were 72.7 billion JPY, an increase of 14.5 billion JPY, or 24.8% versus the previous fiscal year. The increase was driven by the expansion of new prescriptions in the Japanese market due to TAKECAB’s efficacy in reflux esophagitis and the prevention of recurrence of gastric and duodenal ulcers during low-dose aspirin administration. The contribution of sales of GATTEX/REVESTIVE (for short bowel syndrome), obtained through the acquisition of Shire, increased by 49.1 billion JPY to 61.8 billion JPY for this fiscal year, reflecting its first full year contribution to revenue.
Rare Diseases. Our Rare Disease products, obtained through the Shire Acquisition, increased by 505.5 billion JPY to 634.9 billion JPY for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2020, reflecting their first full year contribution to revenue. Sales of the biggest contributors in each therapeutic area were 157.9 billion JPY of ADVATE in Rare Hematology (for hemophilia A), 68.3 billion JPY of TAKHZYRO, a prophylaxis against Hereditary Angioedema, and 67.9 billion JPY of ELAPRASE in Rare Metabolic (for Hunter syndrome), with growth of 125.8 billion JPY, 58.5 billion JPY, and 52.8 billion JPY, respectively.
PDT Immunology. In PDT Immunology, revenue increased by 300.7 billion JPY compared to the previous fiscal year to 394.2 billion JPY, predominantly due to the addition of products obtained through the Shire Acquisition. The revenue includes product sales of a subsidiary, Nihon Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd., which has been engaging in PDT business in Japan since before the Shire Acquisition. Aggregate sales of immunoglobulin products were 298.7 billion JPY. The biggest contributor was GAMMAGARD LIQUID (mainly for the treatment of primary immunodeficiency (“PID”) and multifocal motor neuropathy (“MMN”)), a highly recognized intravenous immunoglobulin brand that is the standard of care treatment for PID and MMN in the U.S. Aggregate sales of albumin products including ALBUMIN GLASS and FLEXBUMIN (primarily used for hypovolemia and hypoalbuminemia) were 67.2 billion JPY and other PDT immunology products added 28.3 billion JPY of aggregate sales.
Oncology. In Oncology, revenue was 421.0 billion JPY, a year-on-year increase of 21.5 billion JPY, or 5.4%. Sales of NINLARO (for multiple myeloma) were 77.6 billion JPY, an increase of 15.4 billion JPY, or 24.7%, versus the previous fiscal year, reflecting strong growth in global sales particularly in the U.S. and China. Additionally, sales of ADCETRIS (for malignant lymphomas) increased by 9.8 billion JPY, or 22.8%, to 52.7 billion JPY, reflecting strong growth in sales particularly in Japan where it has obtained an additional indication as a frontline treatment option for CD30-positive Hodgkin lymphoma. Revenue attributable to ALUNBRIG (for non-small cell lung cancer) increased by 2.0 billion JPY, or 39.2%, to 7.2 billion JPY, as it continues to launch in European countries. Sales of VELCADE (for multiple myeloma), a product which accounts for a large portion of revenue in Oncology, decreased by 9.5 billion JPY, or 7.5% compared to the previous fiscal year to 118.3 billion JPY, of which ex-U.S. royalty income was 9.6 billion JPY, a significant year-on-year decrease of 12.7 billion JPY, or 57.0%. Sales in the U.S. was increased by 3.1 billion JPY, or 2.9%, to 108.8 billion JPY, due to lesser impact than expected from additional competitor’s product in the market.
Neuroscience. In Neuroscience, revenue was 438.5 billion JPY, a year-on-year increase of 283.9 billion JPY, or 183.5%. This increase was largely attributable to the neuroscience portfolio obtained through the Shire Acquisition, including VYVANSE (for ADHD) which increased by 224.7 billion JPY to 274.1 billion JPY for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2020, reflecting its first full year contribution to revenue. Sales of TRINTELLIX (for major depressive disorder (“MDD”)), which is a legacy Takeda product, were 70.7 billion JPY, an increase of 13.1 billion JPY, or 22.8%, versus the previous fiscal year driven by increase in new patients and improved persistence on therapy. Both brands were launched in Japan in the third quarter of the fiscal year ended March 31, 2020.
Cost of Sales. Cost of Sales increased by 438.0 billion JPY, or 67.2%, to 1,089.8 billion JPY for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2020. This increase was primarily caused by the inclusion of full year Cost of Sales related to the sale of products obtained through the Shire Acquisition and increase by 125.7 billion JPY in non-cash charges, mainly from the unwind of the fair value step up on acquired inventory recognized in connection with the Shire Acquisition. These effects were partially offset by a decrease in Cost of Sales for legacy Takeda products, primarily due to a more favorable product mix.
Selling, General and Administrative (“SG&A”) expenses. SG&A expenses increased by 247.1 billion JPY, or 34.4%, to 964.7 billion JPY for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2020, mainly due to expenses relating to the acquired operations of Shire. This increase was partially offset by the favorable impact of the Global Opex Initiative* and cost synergies from the integration of Shire. In addition, there was a 23.8 billion JPY of costs related to the Shire Acquisition incurred in the fiscal year ended March 31, 2019.
| |
| * | Takeda’s global operating expense reduction initiative with the aim of delivering annual margin improvements driven by reduced consumption, procurement initiatives and organizational optimization. |
Research and Development expenses. R&D expenses increased by 124.1 billion JPY, or 33.7%, to 492.4 billion JPY, primarily resulting from costs for the R&D programs acquired from Shire.
Amortization and Impairment Losses on Intangible Assets Associated with Products. Amortization and Impairment Losses on Intangible Assets Associated with Products increased by 276.8 billion JPY, or 155.0%, to 455.4 billion JPY for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2020, primarily attributable to 250.6 billion JPY increase in amortization of intangible assets related to the assets obtained through the Shire Acquisition. Impairment charges increased by 34.7 billion JPY from the previous fiscal year to 43.3 billion JPY. Those charges were related to certain marketed products and IPR&D assets, including a 15.6 billion JPY impairment charge related to our decision to terminate the TAK-616 AMR program following the interim readout in May 2019 and a 10.9 billion JPY impairment charge due to a change in study design related to TAK-607. Impairment charges recorded in the fiscal year ended March 31, 2019 were 8.6 billion JPY, with 7.2 billion JPY of such impairment relating to the termination of an R&D collaboration with Mersana Therapeutics.
Other Operating Income. Other Operating Income decreased by 99.7 billion JPY, or 62.3%, to 60.2 billion JPY for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2020. This decrease was primarily due to a 50.3 billion JPY gain on sale of property, plant and equipment and investment property including the building of Takeda’s previous headquarters in Tokyo and a 38.2 billion JPY gain on sale of shares of the subsidiary related to real estate businesses, recorded in the fiscal year ended March 31, 2019. In addition, the decrease was also due to a 18.4 billion JPY gain on the sale of 100% of the shares held in Guangdon Techpool Bio-Pharma Co., LTD. recorded in the previous fiscal year.
Other Operating Expenses. Other Operating Expenses were 248.7 billion JPY for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2020, an increase of 145.5 billion JPY, or 141.1%, compared to the previous fiscal year, primarily due to an increase of 98.1 billion JPY to 181.0 billion JPY in restructuring expenses for the current fiscal year compared to the previous fiscal year. The increase in restructuring expenses was mainly resulted from an increase of 75.7 billion JPY to 135.4 billion JPY in Shire integration costs compared to the previous fiscal year driven by the progress of the Shire integration including site restructuring resulted in an impairment charge of a manufacturing facility in Ireland. The increase was also due to impairment of property, plant & equipment relating to the pending sale and leaseback of our Shonan iPark. The valuation reserve for pre-launch inventories was also negatively impacted by 34.5 billion JPY comprised of 30.4 billion JPY recorded for the current fiscal year whereas 4.1 billion JPY reversal of valuation reserve for pre-launch inventories recorded in the fiscal year ended March 31, 2019.
Operating Profit. As a result of the above factors, Operating Profit decreased by 137.3 billion JPY, or 57.8%, to 100.4 billion JPY for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2020.
Net Finance Expenses. Net Finance Expenses were 137.2 billion JPY for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2020, an increase of 70.7 billion JPY compared to the previous fiscal year, mainly due to an increase of 100.8 billion JPY interest expenses on bonds and loans issued to finance the Shire Acquisition. This increase of interest expenses was partially offset by 16.1 billion JPY in financing fees related to the bridge loan associated with the Shire Acquisition recorded in the fiscal year ended March 31, 2019 and a 21.3 billion JPY gain recognized on the warrant to purchase stocks of a privately held company upon that company’s initial public offering for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2020.
Shares of Loss of Investments Accounted for Using the Equity Method.Shares of Loss of Investments Accounted for Using the Equity Methodwas 24.0 billion JPY for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2020, a decrease of 19.6 billion JPY, or 45.0% compared to the previous fiscal year, mainly due to a decrease of impairment charge recognized by Teva Takeda Pharma Ltd*.
* Teva Takeda Pharma Ltd operates a business of long-listed products and generics.
Income Tax Benefit. Income Tax Benefit was 105.0 billion JPY for the fiscal year ended March 31,2020, compared to income tax benefit of 7.5 billion JPY for the previous fiscal year. This was mainly due to a non-cash deferred tax benefit of 94.6 billion JPY as a result of enactment of tax reform in Switzerland in the fiscal year ended March 31, 2020. The higher income tax benefit was also due to recognition of deferred tax assets for accumulated net operating loss, and lower pre-tax earnings primarily from expenses such as amortization expense, inventory unwind and integration costs related to the Shire Acquisition. These favorable changes were partially offset by higher tax provisions for uncertain tax positions and tax impacts of restructuring.
Net Profit for the Year.Net Profit for the Year decreased by 90.8 billion JPY, or 67.2%, compared to the previous fiscal year to 44.3 billion JPY.

Change in revenue was primarily attributable to the following products:
GI. In GI, revenue was driven by Takeda'sTakeda’s top-selling product ENTYVIO (for ulcerative colitisUC and Crohn’s disease)CD) with sales of ¥269.2 billion JPY in the fiscal year ended March 31, 2019, an increase of ¥67.8 billion JPY, or 33.7%. This increase was mainly attributable to ENTYVIO's’s steady expansion of patient share in the bio-naïve segment. Takeda obtained an NDA approval in July 2018 in Japan for the treatment of patients with moderately to severely active ulcerative colitis and launched the product in November 2018. Sales of TAKECAB (for acid-related diseases) were ¥58.2 billion JPY in the fiscal year ended March 31, 2019, an increase of ¥9.8 billion JPY, or 20.1%, versus the previous year. The increase was driven by the expansion of new prescriptions in the Japanese market due to TAKECAB's’s efficacy in reflux esophagitis and the prevention of recurrence of gastric ulcers during low-dose aspirin administration.
Oncology. In oncology, sales of NINLARO (for multiple myeloma) were ¥62.2 billion JPY in the fiscal year ended March 31, 2019, an increase of ¥15.7 billion JPY, or 33.9%, versus the previous year. Strong performance in several regions, particularly in the United StatesU.S. continued to contribute to the growth. NINLARO is a once-weekly oral proteasome inhibitor with a profile of efficacy, safety, and convenience. Additionally, sales of ADCETRIS (for malignant lymphomas) increased by ¥4.4 billion JPY, or 11.4%, reflecting strong performance particularly in Japan and Brazil. Sales of ICLUSIG (for leukemia) and ALUNBRIG (for lung cancer), obtained through the acquisition of ARIAD in February 2017, grew by ¥5.6 billion JPY, or 24.1% and ¥2.4 billion JPY, or 84.0%, respectively. Sales of VELCADE (for multiple myeloma), which lost market exclusivity in the United StatesU.S. in the previous year, decreased by ¥9.4 billion JPY, or 6.9%.
Neuroscience. In neuroscience, sales of TRINTELLIX (for major depressive disorder) were ¥57.6 billion JPY in the fiscal year ended March 31, 2019, an increase of ¥9.2 billion JPY, or 19.0%, versus the previous year. Prescribers and patients increasingly made TRINTELLIX part of their comprehensive approach to treat major depressive disorder.
The decrease in revenue resulting from divestitures was primarily due to the sale of seven long-listed products in Japan to Teva Takeda Yakuhin Ltd. in May 2017, the disposition of Guangdong Techpool Bio-Pharma Co., Ltd. in May 2018, and the termination of Takeda’s co-promotion and distribution of XELJANZ in Japan in March 2018.
Shire contributed ¥309.2 billion JPY to our revenue from the date of acquisition. As part of the integration, Takeda'sTakeda’s distribution channel policies were applied to the products acquired from Shire. This resulted in a one-time destocking at wholesalers as they lowered their days-on-hand of inventory of commercial products, which resulted in lower revenue for products acquired from Shire. The sales were primarily from the following products:
GI. In GI, revenue was ¥21.5 billion JPY primarily from the sales of GATTEX/REVESTIVE (for the treatment of short bowel syndrome) that were ¥12.8 billion.billion JPY.
Rare diseases. In rare diseases, revenue was ¥111.2 billion JPY including sales of ADVATE and ADYNOVATE (both for the treatment of hemophilia A), TAKHZYRO (for the preventive treatment of hereditary angioedema), and NATPARA (for the treatment of hypoparathyroidism) of ¥32.1 billion JPY, ¥10.7 billion ¥JPY, 9.7 billion JPY, and ¥7.1 billion JPY, respectively.
Plasma derived therapies.PDT. In plasma derived therapies,PDT, revenue was ¥96.3 billion JPY including sales ofIMMUNOGLOBULIN (mainly for the treatment of primary immunodeficiency and multifocal motor neuropathy) and ALBUMIN (primarily used for the hypovolemia and hypoalbuminemia) of ¥62.2 billion JPY and ¥15.8 billion JPY, respectively.
Neuroscience. In Neuroscience, revenue was ¥60.1 billion JPY including sales of VYVANSE (for the treatment of ADHD and moderate to severe binge eating disorder) of ¥49.4 billion.billion JPY.
Cost of sales. Cost of sales increased ¥163.8by 155.8 billion JPY, or 33.0%31.4%, to ¥659.7651.7 billion JPY for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2019. This includes ¥101.6101.6 billion JPY related to sales of products acquired as part of the Shire Acquisition and the impact of ¥7381.7.8 billion JPY mainly due to non-cash charge from the unwinding of the fair value step up on the inventory from the Shire Acquisition. This increase was offset by a decrease in remaining cost of sales of ¥19.6 billion JPY, or 3.9%, primarily due to a more favorable product mix.
Selling, general and administrative (“SG&A”) expenses. SG&A expenses increased ¥by 89.5 billion JPY, or 14.2%, to ¥717.6 billion JPY for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2019, primarily due to acquisition of Shire’s operations in our results of ¥98.5 billion JPY and related acquisition costs of ¥23.8 billion.billion JPY. This increase was partially offset by a decrease of remaining SG&A expenses of ¥33.4 billion JPY due to a favorable impact of our global operating expense reduction initiative as well as lower long-term share-based incentive payments to management.
Research and development expenses.Research and development R&D expenses increased ¥by 42.9 billion JPY, or 13.2%, to ¥368.3 billion JPY for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2019, primarily resulting from the acquisition of Shire.Shire Acquisition. The remainder of our research and developmentR&D expenses remained steady compared to the previous year.
Amortization and impairment losses on intangible assets associated with products. Amortization and impairment losses on intangible assets associated with products increased by ¥5681.2.5 billion JPY, or 66.5%46.2%, to ¥178203.4.6 billion JPY for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2019. This represents an increase of ¥7499.2.5 billion JPY related to amortization of intangible assets recorded in the Shire Acquisition and a ¥22.6 billion JPY reversal of the COLCRYS impairment recorded in the previous year. This increase was offset by lower amortization expense of ¥36.7 billion JPY, which related to the VELCADE intangible asset being fully amortized within the previous year.
Other operating income. Other operating income decreased ¥9.5 billion JPY, or 5.6%, to ¥159.9 billion JPY for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2019. The decrease was primarily due to the net impact of ¥106.3 billion JPY gain on the sale of Wako Pure Chemical Industries, Ltd. recorded in the previous year, whereas we recorded a ¥50.3 billion JPY gain on sale of property, plant and equipment and investment property including Takeda’s old headquarter building in Tokyo as well as a ¥38.2 billion JPY gain on sale of shares of the subsidiary, to which respective real estate businesses were transferred in the current year.fiscal year ended March 31, 2019.
Other operating expenses. Other operating expenses decreased ¥23.4 billion JPY, or 18.5%, to ¥103.2 billion JPY for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2019 which was a decrease of ¥88.0 billion JPY partially offset by ¥59.6 billion JPY of Shire integration costs. The decrease was primarily due to a decrease of ¥22.8 billion JPY in restructuring expense and other costs incurred in the priorprevious year that did not reoccur in the current fiscal year ended March 31, 2019 such as a ¥41.5 billion JPY loss on the liquidation of a foreign subsidiary.

Net financial expense was a ¥66.4 billion JPY in the current year, an increase of ¥74.1 billion JPY compared to the previous year, which includes ¥41.3 billion JPY mainly related to interest on borrowings used to partially fund the Shire Acquisition. The remaining increase iswas primarily due to a gain on an investment of ¥30.4 billion JPY that was included in financial income in the prior year and is no longer be included in financial income upon adoption of a new accounting standard.
Shares of loss of associates accounted for using the equity method. Shares of loss of associates accounted for using the equity method were ¥43.6 billion JPY for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2019, an increase of ¥11.4 billion JPY from the previous year. This primarily relates to Takeda’s share of an impairment charge recognized by Teva Takeda Pharma Ltd. Teva Takeda Pharma Ltd. operates a business of long-listed products and generics and conducted a revaluation of its assets in response to changes in the business environment.
Income tax expenses. Income tax expenses decreased by ¥3844.6.0 billion JPY, or 146.3%124.5% from ¥30.5 billion JPY for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2018 to tax benefit of ¥714.1.5 billion JPY for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2019. This decrease was mainly due to tax benefit of ¥58.752.0 billion JPY resulting from the Shire Acquisition. Excluding the Shire Acquisition impact, the remaining income tax expenses increased ¥by 14.1 billion JPY mainly due to an increase in profit before tax, as well as the impact from the enactment of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (Tax Reform) in the U.S. in the previous year. These factors were partially offset by capital loss related to restructuring of subsidiaries in the current year.
Fiscal Year Ended March 31, 2018 compared with the Fiscal Year Ended March 31, 2017
Revenue. Revenue increased ¥38.5 billion, or 2.2%, from ¥1,732.1 billion for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2017 to ¥1,770.5 billion for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2018. During the fiscal year ended March 31, 2018, our revenue decreased by ¥94.3 billion as a result of divestitures, which primarily consisted of ¥79.1 billion attributable to the divestiture of Wako Pure Chemical in April 2017 and ¥11.1 billion attributable to the termination of the commercialization agreement for CONTRAVE in the U.S. in August 2016. Excluding the impact of divestitures, our revenues increased by ¥132.8 billion primarily due to growth in our core therapeutic areas of GI, oncology and neuroscience, which includes the favorable impact of the strengthening of the U.S. dollar and Euro against the yen as compared to the prior year.

Notes:

(1) | Beginning from the fiscal year ended March 31, 2019, sales of certain products in Japan are disclosed on a net basis, deducting items such as discounts and rebates, in alignment with the global managerial approach applied to individual product sales for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2018. Sales of individual products have been revised retroactively on a net basis to enable year-on-year comparisons. This reclassification has no impact on Takeda’s financial statements and does not represent a correction of figures from the prior fiscal periods. Figures for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2017 have not been reclassified retroactively. |
| |
(2) | TRINTELLIX is the brand name used since June 2016 for the product previously marketed as BRINTELLIX in the United States. The formulations, indication and dosages of TRINTELLIX remain the same as that of BRINTELLIX.
|
| |
(3) | Products excluding fixed dose combinations were transferred to Teva Takeda Yakuhin Ltd., a wholly-owned subsidiary of Teva Takeda Pharma Ltd., a joint venture in Japan we formed with Teva Pharmaceutical Industries Ltd., in April 2016. Fixed dose combinations were sold to Teva Takeda Yakuhin Ltd. in May 2017. Amounts presented above represent supply sales to Teva Takeda Yakuhin Ltd., following such transfers. |
Change in revenue in our three key therapeutic areas of GI, oncology and neuroscience was primarily attributable to the following products:
GI. In the therapeutic area of GI, revenue grew 23.5% compared to the previous fiscal year. Revenue attributable to ENTYVIO was ¥201.4 billion in the fiscal year ended March 31, 2018, an increase of ¥58.2 billion, or 40.6%, compared to the previous fiscal year as a result of increase in sales volume, making ENTYVIO our top-selling product. Revenue attributable to TAKECAB was ¥48.5 billion (or ¥55.1 billion on a gross basis) in the fiscal year ended March 31, 2018, compared to ¥34.1 billion on a gross basis in the previous fiscal year, with prescriptions in Japan as a result of a higher overall volume due to TAKECAB’s efficacy in reflux esophagitis and the prevention of recurrence of gastric ulcers during low-dose aspirin administration.
Oncology. In the therapeutic area of oncology, revenue grew 14.6% compared to the previous fiscal year. Revenue attributable to NINLARO was ¥46.4 billion, an increase of ¥17.1 billion, or 58.1% compared to the previous fiscal year, reflecting market penetration across several regions, particularly in the United States. Revenue attributable to ICLUSIG, which was obtained through the acquisition of ARIAD in February 2017, was ¥23.1 billion, its first full-year contribution to our revenue growth in this key therapeutic area. ALUNBRIG, also obtained through the acquisition of ARIAD, was launched in the United States in May 2017, and revenue attributable to it in the fiscal year ended March 31, 2018 was ¥2.8 billion. Revenue attributable to VELCADE decreased slightly to ¥137.3 billion in the fiscal year ended March 31, 2018 from ¥137.6 billion in the previous fiscal year.
Neuroscience. In the therapeutic area of neuroscience, revenue grew 24.5% compared to the previous fiscal year. Revenue attributable to TRINTELLIX was ¥48.4 billion, an increase of ¥16.5 billion, or 51.6%, versus the previous year, reflecting higher volumes as a result of expansion of market share in the U.S. branded antidepressant market, driven by our patient engagement initiatives.
Cost of sales. Cost of sales decreased ¥62.8 billion, or 11.2%, from ¥558.8 billion for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2017 to ¥495.9 billion for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2018. Cost of sales as a percentage of revenue decreased from 32.3% in the fiscal year ended March 31, 2017 to 28.0% in the fiscal year ended March 31, 2018. The decreases in cost of sales, both overall and relative to revenues, was primarily due to the disposition of Wako Pure Chemical in April 2017, which generally had lower-margin products, as well as the effect of other changes to our product mix due to the faster growth of higher margin products, such as ENTYVIO and NINLARO, relative to other products.
Selling, general and administrative expenses. Selling, general and administrative expenses increased ¥9.0 billion, or 1.5%, from ¥619.1 billion for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2017 to ¥628.1 billion for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2018, mainly due to increased long-term incentive payments to management, higher co-promotion expenses related to increased sales of TAKECAB in Japan and higher compensation costs, which contributed ¥2.6 billion, ¥4.8 billion and ¥3.8 billion, respectively. However, selling, general and administrative expenses increased at a lower rate than revenue, reflecting our overall cost reduction efforts.
Research and development expenses. Research and development expenses increased ¥13.1 billion, or 4.2%, from ¥312.3 billion for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2017 to ¥325.4 billion for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2018, mainly due to our pursuit of increased research and development projects and the effect of a weaker Japanese yen.
Amortization and impairment losses on intangible assets associated with products. Amortization and impairment losses on intangible assets associated with products decreased ¥34.6 billion, or 22.1%, from ¥156.7 billion for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2017 to ¥122.1 billion for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2018. This was primarily driven by a decrease of impairment losses on intangible assets of ¥48.2 billion, including a ¥22.6 billion reversal of the previous impairment related to COLCRYS, reflecting updated estimates about the amount of impairment due to better-than-expected sales performance. This was offset in part by increased amortization of intangible assets of ¥13.6 billion, resulting from the inclusion of amortization of intangible assets acquired in the ARIAD acquisition.
Other operating income. Other operating income increased by ¥25.9 billion, or 18.0%, from ¥143.5 billion for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2017 to ¥169.4 billion for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2018, driven mainly by ¥106.3 billion representing a gain on the sale of Wako Pure Chemical in April 2017, ¥27.5 billion representing a gain on divestments to Teva Takeda Yakuhin Ltd. and ¥18.8 billion representing a gain on sales of property, plant and equipment and investment property. Other operating income in the previous fiscal year was primarily driven by a ¥115.4 billion gain on divestments to Teva Takeda Yakuhin Ltd and a ¥12.0 billion gain from the reversal of contingent consideration liability reflecting decreased expected sales of COLCRYS.
Other operating expenses. Other operating expenses increased ¥53.7 billion, or 73.6%, to ¥126.6 billion for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2018, as compared to ¥72.9 billion for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2017. This was driven by a loss on liquidation of a foreign subsidiary of ¥41.5 billion primarily reflecting the recognition of cumulative translation losses and an increase in fair value of contingent consideration of ¥10.5 billion driven by an increase in projected sales primarily for COLCRYS.
Income tax (expenses). Income tax expenses increased ¥2.7 billion, or 9.6%, from ¥27.8 billion for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2017 to ¥30.5 billion for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2018. This increase was mainly due to the tax impact of ¥22.8 billion resulting from the increase in profit before tax compared to the previous fiscal year, as well as the effect of additional tax benefits recognized for the year ended March 31, 2017, resulting from reduction of share capital of a subsidiary, which was responsible for an increase of ¥8.9 billion. These increases were offset in part by the positive impact of the enactment of U.S. tax reforms, principally related to the revaluation of net deferred tax liability at a lower enacted tax rate and improved recoverability of deferred tax assets, which resulted in a decrease of ¥27.5 billion.2019.

| B. | Liquidity and Capital Resources.Resources |
Sources and Uses of Liquidity
Our liquidity requirements mainly relate to operating cash, capital expenditures, contractual obligations, repayment of indebtedness and payment of interest and dividends. Our operating cash requirements include cash outlays for research and developmentR&D expenses, milestone payments, sales and marketing expenses, personnel and other general and administrative costs and raw material costs. Income tax payments also require significant cash outlays as well as working capital financing.
Our capital expenditures for tangible assets consist primarily of enhancing and streamlining our production facilities, replacing fully depreciated items, and promoting efficiency of our operations. Our capital expenditures for intangible assets represent mainly milestone payments related to licensed products, where such assets have been acquired from third-party partners, as well as software development expenditures. Our capital expenditures, which consist of additions to property, plant and equipment and intangible assets recorded on our consolidated balance sheets,statements of financial position, were ¥148.1124.1 billion ¥124.1JPY, 244.6 billion JPY and ¥244.6246.3 billion JPY for the fiscal years ended March 31, 2017, 2018, 2019, and 2019,2020, respectively. As of March 31, 2019,2020, we had contractual commitments for the acquisition of property, plant and equipment of ¥34.0 billion.30.2 billion JPY. In addition, we had certain contractual agreements related to the acquisition of intangible assets as of March 31, 2020. See Note 32 for a description of our milestone payments of intangible assets. As part of our capital management, we periodically assess our level of capital expenditures in light of capital needs, market and other conditions and other relevant factors.
Our dividend payments for the fiscal years ended March 31, 2017, 2018, 2019 and 20192020 were ¥141.7141.9 billion ¥141.9JPY, 143.0 billion JPY and ¥143.0282.7 billion JPY, respectively. It is our intention to continue to return capital to shareholders using dividends at an annual level of ¥180180 JPY per share, consisting of interim and fiscal year-end dividends of ¥9090 JPY per share. See “Item 8. Financial Information-A. Consolidated Statements and Other Financial Information-Dividends” for a description of our dividend policy.
We are required to make interest and principal payments on our outstanding borrowings. As of March 31, 2019,2020, we have ¥122.7had 102.5 billion JPY of interest due within one year and ¥988.1587.1 billion JPY of principal payments on our borrowings due within one year. See “-Borrowings“Borrowings and Financial Obligations.”
Our sources of liquidity include cash and cash equivalents on hand, short-term commercial paper, committed borrowing lines from financial institutions and long-term debt financing, including from global capital markets. We monitor and adjust the amount of foreign cash based on projected cash flow requirements. As the majority of our business is conducted outside Japan, we hold a significant portion of cash outside of Japan. Our ability to use foreign cash to fund cash flow requirements in Japan may be impacted by local regulations and, to a lesser extent, income taxes associated with transferring cash to Japan.
We do not currently anticipate experiencing funding or liquidity shortfalls in the short term as a result of the spread of COVID-19 and the related effects on financial and other markets, although we continue to closely monitor our funding situation and market conditions. In addition to the
ability to seek additional funding (if needed) from market and other sources, we may also manage our funding and liquidity needs by reconsidering, to the extent necessary and appropriate, our capital expenditure plans.
As of March 31, 2019,2020, we held ¥702.1637.6 billion JPY in cash and cash equivalents on hand and ¥300.0700 billion JPY in undrawn commitment line. We believe that working capital is sufficient for our current business requirements. Furthermore, we continually seek to ensure that our level of liquidity and access to capital market funding continues to be maintained to successfully support our business operations.

Fiscal Year Ended March 31, 2020 compared with the Fiscal Year Ended March 31, 2019
Net cash from operating activities was 669.8 billion JPY for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2020 compared to 328.5 billion JPY for the previous fiscal year. The increase of 341.3 billion JPY was driven by an increase of cash generated from operations excluding the impact of non-cash expenses mainly related to the Shire acquisition whereas net profit for the year decreased by 90.8 billion JPY compared to the previous fiscal year. The impact of non-cash expenses reflected an increase in the reversal of depreciation and amortization of 336.0 billion JPY mainly attributable to intangible assets recorded upon the Shire Acquisition and impairment losses of 91.8 billion JPY relating to certain marketed products, IPR&D assets and site restructuring such as manufacturing facility in Ireland and Shonan iPark, as well as a decrease in inventories of 86.8 billion JPY primarily attributable to the unwind of the fair value step up on acquired inventory recorded in relation to the Shire Acquisition.
The increase in net cash from operating activities also includes other favorable adjustments such as an increase in net finance expenses of 70.7 billion JPY primarily due to the interest expenses in connection with the financing for the Shire Acquisition and the effect of changes in assets and liabilities such as accrued bonus for employees.
These increases were partially offset by an increase of income taxes paid of 183.1 billion JPY mainly due to tax payments by legacy Shire entities acquired in the previous fiscal year.
Net cash from investing activities was 292.1 billion JPY for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2020 compared to net cash used in investing activities of 2,835.7 billion JPY for the previous fiscal year. This increase of 3,127.8 billion JPY in investing activities was primarily attributable to 2,891.9 billion JPY of the total cash outflow for the Shire Acquisition in the previous fiscal year. In addition, proceeds from sales of business increased by 376.4 billion JPY reflecting the sale of XIIDRA of 375.5 billion JPY.
Net cash used in financing activities was 1,005.2 billion JPY for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2020 compared to net cash from financing activities of 2,946.2 billion JPY for the previous fiscal year. This decrease of 3,951.5 billion JPY was mainly the result of 2,795.9 billion JPY proceeds from the issuance of bonds and long-term loans related to the acquisition of Shire recorded in the previous year and 701.1 billion JPY repayment of bonds and long-term loans in the current year. There also was a decrease in short-term loans of 718.5 billion JPY and an increase of dividends paid by 139.6 billion JPY, as well as an increase of interest paid by 92.3 billion JPY mainly resulting from the financing for the Shire Acquisition.
For the fiscal year ended March 31, 2020, the proceeds from issuance of bonds and long-term loans were 496.2 billion JPY including the 500.0 billion JPY issuance of hybrid bonds, and net decrease in short-term loans was 351.2 billion JPY mainly due to repayment of 500.0 billion JPY for the short-term syndicated loans.
Fiscal Year Ended March 31, 2019 compared with the Fiscal Year Ended March 31, 2018
Net cash from operating activities was ¥328.5328.5 billion JPY for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2019 compared to ¥377.9377.9 billion JPY for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2018. The decrease of ¥49.449.4 billion JPY was driven by a decrease in net profit of ¥77.751.6 billion JPY and the impacts of certain unfavorable adjustments including the lower income tax expenses of ¥44.638.0 billion JPY primarily attributable to non-cash tax benefit on the impact of purchase accounting of the Shire acquisition,Acquisition, the loss on liquidation of foreign operations of ¥41.541.5 billion JPY recorded in the previous fiscal year, as well as the effect of changes in assets and liabilities such as higher employee bonus payments in the fiscal year ended March 31, 2019.
These were partially offset by certain favorable non-cash adjustments such as the increase in depreciation and amortization of ¥90.365.6 billion JPY mainly attributable to intangible assets recorded upon the acquisition of Shire and the decrease in inventories by ¥45.037.0 billion JPY primarily attributable to unwinding of the fair value step up recorded in relation to the Shire Acquisition. This also includes other favorable adjustments such as the increase in net financial income and expenses by ¥74.174.1 billion JPY primarily due to the financial expense recorded in connection with the acquisition of Shire.
Net cash used in investing activities was ¥2,835.72,835.7 billion JPY for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2019, compared to ¥93.393.3 billion JPY for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2018. This significant increase was primarily attributable to ¥2,891.92,891.9 billion JPY of net consideration paid for the acquisition of Shire. This was offset by ¥50.750.7 billion JPY proceeds from the sale of real estate primarily attributable to the sale of our former headquarters building in the current fiscal year.year ended March 31, 2019.
Net cash used in financing activities was ¥2,946.22,946.2 billion JPY for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2019, compared to net cash used in financing activities of ¥326.2326.2 billion JPY for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2018. The current fiscal year mainly includesincluded an increase of short-term loans of ¥367.3367.3 billion JPY and ¥2,795.92,795.9 billion JPY proceeds from bonds and long-term loans of mainly for the acquisition of Shire.
Fiscal Year Ended March 31, 2018 compared with the Fiscal Year Ended March 31, 2017
Net cash from operating activities increased by ¥116.5 billion from ¥261.4 billion in the fiscal year ended March 31, 2017 to ¥377.9 billion in the fiscal year ended March 31, 2018, primarily due to the impact of a higher net profit of ¥71.2 billion and the effect of certain favorable non-cash expenses and other adjustments, including a gain on divestment of a business of ¥87.9 billion, a loss on liquidation of foreign operations of ¥41.5 billion as well as a ¥30.7 billion loss relating to the share of loss of associates. Additional sources of operating cash flow were a ¥9.8 billion decrease in inventories as a result of management effort to reduce inventory levels during the fiscal year ended March 31, 2018. These sources of cash were partially offset by a higher impairment loss of ¥37.8 billion in fiscal year ended March 31, 2017 and a gain on sale of a business of ¥106.6 billion during the fiscal year ended March 31, 2018.
Net cash used in investing activities was ¥93.3 billion for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2018, compared to ¥655.7 billion for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2017. This decrease was primarily attributable to ¥583.1 billion of net consideration paid for the acquisition of ARIAD in the fiscal year ended March 31, 2017. The decrease also reflects the effect of a payment of ¥71.8 billion into a restricted cash account in the fiscal year ended March 31, 2018 in preparation for the acquisition of TiGenix NV. This was offset by ¥84.5 billion proceeds from the divestment of Wako Pure Chemical in the same fiscal year.
Net cash used in financing activities was ¥326.2 billion for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2018, compared to net cash from financing activities of ¥289.9 billion for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2017. This was primarily the result of repayments of ¥403.9 billion of short-term bridge loans, ¥337.2 billion of proceeds from long-term loans related mainly to the refinancing of the bridge loan for the ARIAD acquisition, and repayments of other long-term loans of ¥80.0 billion in the fiscal year ended March 31, 2018, compared to ¥407.0 billion of proceeds primarily from such short-term bridge loans in the previous fiscal year.
Borrowings and Financial Obligations
Our total bonds and loans are ¥985.7were 5,751.0 billion JPY and ¥5,751.05,093.3 billion JPY as of March 31, 20182019 and 2019,2020, respectively. These borrowings include unsecured bonds and senior notes issued by Takeda in prior years, syndicated loans entered into by Takeda in prior years, borrowings obtainedincurred to fund a portion of the Shire acquisition,Acquisition, and debt assumed in connection with the Shire acquisitionAcquisition and included in our consolidated statementstatements of financial position. Our borrowings are mainly linked to acquisitions and therefore are not exposed to seasonality.
The increase in bonds and loans relates to financing obtained to fund a portion of the Shire Acquisition and the debt assumed from Shire. In connection with the Shire Acquisition, we entered into various borrowing arrangements as described in further detail below, including bridge financing that was subsequently repaid. The borrowings entered into during the fiscal year ended March 31, 2019 that remain outstanding at the end of the fiscal year are as follows:
Term Loan Credit Agreement with a total aggregate principal amount of $7.5 billion denominated in U.S. dollar and Euro was entered into on June 8, 2018 and fully drawn in early January 2019. The proceeds drawn were used to fund a portion of the cash consideration payable in connection with the Shire Acquisition. The borrowings under the Term Loan Credit Agreement are unsecured and accrue interest based on floating rates, and will mature on January 3, 2024.
Euro denominated senior notes with a total aggregate principal amount of €7.5 billion were issued in November 2018 together with U.S. dollar denominated senior notes with a total aggregate principal amount of $5.5 billion (collectively, the “2018 Notes”). The 2018 Notes were issued in the following series:
| |
◦ | €1,250.0 million aggregate principal amount of 0.375% Senior Notes due November 21, 2020, €1,000.0 million aggregate principal amount of the Senior Floating Rate Notes due November 21, 2020, €1,500.0 million aggregate principal amount of 1.125% Senior Notes due November 21, 2022, €750.0 million aggregate principal amount of the Senior Floating Rate Notes due November 21, 2022, €1,500.0 million aggregate principal amount of 2.250% Senior Notes due November 21, 2026, and €1,500.0 million aggregate principal amount of 3.000% Senior Notes due November 21, 2030. |

The 2018 Notes were issued in private placements in reliance on exemptions from registration under the U.S. Securities Act of 1933 (the “Securities Act”). Interest on the series of 2018 Notes, which are subject to fixed rates, is payable annually (in the case of the Euro-denominated 2018 Notes) or semi-annually (in the case of the dollar-denominated 2018 Notes) in arrears. Interest on the series of 2018 Notes which are subject to floating rates is determined by reference to three-month EURIBOR plus an applicable spread, reset quarterly, and is payable quarterly in arrears.
An unsecured JBIC Loan Agreement for an aggregate principal amount $3.7 billion was entered into December 2018. The JBIC Loan was fully drawn down in early January 2019 and will mature on December 11, 2025. The borrowings under the Term Loan Credit Agreement are unsecured and accrue interest based on floating rates.
A ¥500 billion Senior Short-Term Loan ("SSTL") Facility Agreement entered into in October 2018. The SSTL was fully drawn in early January 2019 and the proceeds were used to fund a portion of the cash consideration payable in connection with the Shire Acquisition. The SSTL has a maturity of up to six months from the date of draw down at our option. In October 2018, we entered into a Subordinated Loan Agreement providing for borrowings up to the same principal amount of the SSTL in order to allow for the refinancing of any borrowings under the SSTL. However, the SSTL was repaid in June 2019 using the proceeds from the offering of our Hybrid Bonds, described below, and no borrowings were made under the Subordinated Loan Agreement. Both the SSTL and Subordinated Loan Agreement were cancelled in June 2019.
In connection with the Shire Acquisition, various borrowing arrangements previously held by Shire as described in further detail below were assumed and are included in our consolidated statement of financial position. Such borrowings that remain outstanding at the end of the fiscal year are as follows:
USD denominated senior notes (the “SAIIDAC Notes”) issued by Shire Acquisitions Investments Ireland Designated Activity Company (“SAIIDAC”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of Shire, and guaranteed by us.

Interest on the Baxalta Notes is payable semi-annually in arrears. The following series of Baxalta Notes were outstanding as of March 31, 2019: $404.5 million aggregate principal amount of 2.875% senior notes due June 23, 2020, $219.4 million aggregate principal amount of 3.600% senior notes due June 23, 2022, $800.5 million aggregate principal amount of 4.000% senior notes due June 23, 2025 and $500.4 million aggregate principal amount of 5.250% senior notes due June 23, 2045.
On June 6, 2019, weTakeda issued hybrid subordinated bonds (subordinated bonds) (“Hybrid(the “Hybrid Bonds”) with an aggregate principal amount of ¥500 billion. We used the500 billion JPY. The proceeds from thisthe Hybrid Bond offeringBonds were used to repay the SSTL.
existing syndicated loans comprised of the senior short-term loan facility that was utilized to finance the acquisition of Shire. The Hybrid Bonds will mature on June 6, 2079. Under the terms and conditions of the Hybrid Bond, weBonds, Takeda may make an early repayment of all of the principal of the Hybrid Bonds on each interest payment date beginning October 6, 2024. Interest is payable semi-annually at a rate per annum subject to revision. The Hybrid Bonds are unsecured, and we areTakeda is not subject to any financial covenants related to these bonds.
In September 2019, Takeda reached an agreement on a commitment facility of 700 billion JPY with various Japanese and non-Japanese banks. The commitment facility is effective from October 2019 for five years at a minimum. In connection with the execution of this new commitment facility, Takeda’s existing short-term commitment facility of 300 billion JPY expiring in March 2020 was canceled in September 2019. The purpose of the new commitment facility is for general business use. There were no drawdowns on the 700 billion JPY commitment facility as of March 31, 2020.
Bonds and long-term loans of 701.1 billion JPY were repaid during the year ended March 31, 2020, with no repayments during the fiscal year ended March 31, 2019. In July 2019, unsecured Straight Bonds of 60 billion JPY and Syndicated Loans of 60 billion JPY were repaid on their respective due dates. This was followed in August 2019 by the early redemption of unsecured USD denominated Senior Notes totaling 1,404.5 million USD (150.2 billion JPY). In September 2019, unsecured USD denominated Senior Notes totaling 3,300 million USD (350.7 billion JPY) were repaid on their due date. Furthermore, 700 million USD (77.4 billion JPY) of USD denominated Syndicated Loans were repaid early in March 2020.
In December 2019, Takeda completed the exchange offer for 2018 USD Senior Notes (“Outstanding Notes”) which had been originally issued in transactions exempt from registration under the Securities Act with registration rights on November 19, 2018, except for 1,000 million USD aggregate principal amount of 3.8% Senior Notes due 2020 which were fully redeemed on August 29, 2019 before the exchange offer took place. As a result of the exchange offer, most of the outstanding 2018 USD Senior Notes (amounting to 4,461 million USD) were tendered for exchange, which were all accepted by Takeda and thereby exchanged with the bonds registered under the U.S. Securities Act of 1933 with same principal amounts, terms and conditions (“Exchange Notes”). Outstanding Notes accepted for exchange were canceled upon the completion of exchange, while those that were not tendered for the exchange offer amounting to 39 million USD of principal amounts remained as unregistered Outstanding Notes.
As of March 31, 2020, we had certain outstanding borrowings with various financial covenants which require Takeda to maintain certain financial ratios and comply with other restrictions such as consolidated leverage ratios. During the fiscal year ended March 31, 2020, Takeda amended various financial covenants on certain borrowings. The key amendment was related to certain loans maturing beyond July 2020, which contained the historic restrictive covenant that Takeda’s profit before tax must not be negative for two consecutive fiscal years. This covenant was removed and was replaced by a leverage covenant whereby Takeda’s ratio of consolidated net debt to consolidated EBITDA, as defined in the loan agreements, for the previous twelve-month period should not surpass certain levels as of March 31 and September 30 of each year. As of March 31, 2020, we were in compliance with all financial covenants. There are no restrictions on the ability to draw from the 700 billion JPY commitment line that was put in place during the year.
We currently have a Japanese unsecured commercial paper program in place to facilitate short-term liquidity management. The total amount drawn on the commercial paper program was 144 billion JPY at March 31, 2020. We further havehad access to short-term commitment lineuncommitted lines of ¥300230 billion JPY which arewere undrawn as of March 31, 2019.
We have certain borrowings outstanding as of March 31, 2019, that have restrictive financial covenants. The most restrictive of these covenants is that our profit before tax must not be negative for two consecutive years, which is contained in the JBIC Loan Agreement described above. As of March 31, 2019, we are in compliance with all such covenants. There are no restrictions on the ability to draw from the commitment line.2020.

We maintain certain share-based compensation payment plans for the benefit of our directors and certain of our employees. In the fiscal years ended March 31, 2017, 2018, 2019 and 2019,2020, we recorded total compensation expense related to our share-based payment plans of ¥17.422.2 billion ¥22.2JPY, 18.8 billion JPY and ¥18.830.0 billion JPY, respectively, in our consolidated statements of income.profit or loss.

| C. | Board Practices.Practices |
See “—A. Directors and Senior Management.” for information about the terms of service of the members of our Board of Directors and the committees thereof.
Corporate Governance Structure
Under the Companies Act, joint stock corporations in Japan may adopt a corporate governance structure comprised of a board of directors and an audit and supervisory committee, commonly referred to as the audit and supervisory committee system, in lieu of the traditional structure comprised of a board of directors and a board of corporate auditors or the alternative structure comprised of a board of directors and three statutory committees. The members of the audit and supervisory committee consist of three or more directors. We adopted the audit and supervisory committee system in June 2016, in order to increase transparency and independency of our board of directors, and further enhance our corporate governance, by establishing the systems of audit and supervision conducted by the Audit and Supervisory Committee and increasing the proportion of the number of External Directors and the diversity of our board of directors. This governance structure also enables us to enhance the separation of business execution and supervision by delegating certain decision-making authority to individual members of our board of directors, realizing increased agility in decision-making and helping the board of directors focus more on discussions of business strategies and particularly important business matters.
Board of Directors
Pursuant to the audit and supervisory committee system, our board of directors is comprised of directors who are auditAudit and supervisory committeeSupervisory Committee members and directors who are not. Our articles of incorporation provide for a board of directors consisting of no more than 12 members who are not auditAudit and supervisory committeeSupervisory Committee members and no more than four directors who are auditAudit and supervisory committeeSupervisory Committee members. All directors are elected by our shareholders at a general meeting of shareholders, with directors who are auditAudit and supervisory committeeSupervisory Committee members elected separately from other directors. The term of office for directors who are not auditAudit and supervisory committeeSupervisory Committee members expires at the close of the ordinary general meeting of shareholders held with respect to the last fiscal year ended within one year after their election, and the term of office for directors who are auditAudit and supervisory committeeSupervisory Committee members expires at the close of the ordinary general meeting of shareholders held with respect to the last fiscal year ended within two years after their election. The current terms of our directors are set forth under "Item“Item 6. Directors, Senior Management and Employees—A. Directors and Senior Management."” All directors may serve any number of consecutive terms. None of our directors have entered service contracts with us or any of our subsidiaries providing for benefits upon termination of employment.
Our board of directors has the ultimate responsibility for the administration of our affairs. Our board of directors, however, may delegate by its resolution some or all of its decision-making authority in respect of the execution of operational matters (excluding certain matters specified in the Companies Act) to individual directors and has delegated such decision-making authority as described below. Our board of directors elect one or more representative directors from among its members who are not auditAudit and supervisory committeeSupervisory Committee members. Each of the representative directors has the authority to represent us in the conduct of our affairs.
Audit and Supervisory Committee
Our directors who are auditAudit and supervisory committeeSupervisory Committee members are not required to be certified public accountants. They may not serve concurrently as executive directors, managers or any other type of employee for us or for any of our subsidiaries, or as accounting advisors or corporate
executive officers for any of our subsidiaries. In addition, more than half of our directors who are auditAudit and supervisory committeeSupervisory Committee members at any one time must be external directors as defined under the Companies Act, who have not served as executive directors, corporate executive officers, managers or any other type of employee for us or any of our subsidiaries for ten years prior to their election and fulfill certain other requirements specified in the Companies Act.
The auditAudit and supervisory committeeSupervisory Committee has a statutory duty to audit the administration of our affairs by our directors, to examine the financial statements and business reports to be submitted to the shareholders by a representative director, to prepare an audit report each year, to determine details of proposals concerning the appointment and dismissal of independent auditors and the refusal to reappoint independent auditors for submission to general meetings of shareholders and to determine the opinion on election, removal, resignation of or compensation for directors who are not auditAudit and supervisory committeeSupervisory Committee members, which may be expressed at a general meeting of shareholders. An auditAudit and supervisory committeeSupervisory Committee member may note his or her opinion in the audit report issued by the auditAudit and supervisory committeeSupervisory Committee if such an opinion differs from that expressed in the audit report. Additionally, our Audit and Supervisory Committee serves as our “audit committee” for the purposes of Rule 10A-3 under the Exchange Act. We are required to appoint and have appointed an independent auditor, who has a statutory duty of examining the financial statements to be submitted to the shareholders by a Representative Director and preparing its audit report thereon. KPMG AZSA LLC currently acts as our independent auditor.
Takeda Executive Team
As management tasks continue to diversify, we have established a Takeda executive team under the President and Chief Executive Officer, consisting of certain directors and employees in senior positions who manage and supervise our key functions, as well as a business review committee,Business Review Committee, which is responsible for consideration and determination of general management matters, a portfolio review committee,Portfolio Review Committee, which is responsible for research and developmentR&D and products-related matters, and a risk, ethicsRisk, Ethics and compliance committee,Compliance Committee, which is responsible for internal audit, risk management and compliance matters. Our board of directors has delegated all of its decision-making authority in respect of operational matters (excluding certain matters specified in the Companies Act, as well as substantive matters valued at ¥100100 billion JPY or more or those matters which will have substantial impact on us or our stakeholders) to the President and Chief Executive Officer, twothree directors belonging to the business review committeeBusiness Review Committee, one director belonging to the Portfolio Review Committee, and one director belonging to the portfolio review committee.Risk, Ethics and Compliance Committee.
Nomination Committee and Compensation Committee
We also have voluntarily established a nomination committeeNomination Committee and a compensation committeeCompensation Committee as advisory committees of the board of directors. The majority of each committee'scommittee’s members must be “External Members” (either external directors or external experts). Furthermore, at least one director who is an Audit and Supervisory Committee member must be assigned to each committee and each committee must be chaired by an external director. As of the date of this annual report, the nomination committeeNomination Committee consists of one external director who serves as chairman, twofour other external directors and one other director as an observer who is not an external director, and the compensation committeeCompensation Committee consists of one external director who serves as chairman, oneand three other external director and one other director who is not an external director.directors. Together, the committees serve to ensure transparency and objectivity in decision-making relating to personnel matters for directors who are not external directors (including appropriate standards and procedures for appointment and reappointment and establishing and administering appropriate succession plans) and the compensation system (including appropriate levels of compensation for the directors, appropriate performance targets within the bonus system for directors and appropriate bonuses based on business results). Also, by resolution of the Boardboard of Directors,directors, the authority to decide the amount of individual remuneration of Internal Directors who are not Audit and Supervisory Committee members is delegated to the compensation committee,Compensation Committee, through which we have realized a more transparent process in determining individual remuneration.
Limitation of Liability of Directors
OurUnder the Companies Act and our articles of incorporation, we may exempt, by resolution of the board of directors, our directors from liabilities to us arising in connection with their failure to execute their duties in good faith and without gross negligence, within the limits stipulated by applicable laws and regulations. In addition, our articles of incorporation provide that we may enter into agreements with our directors (excluding executive directors as defined under the Companies Act) to limit their respective liabilities to us arising from their failure to execute their duties in good faith and without gross negligence, subject to applicable laws and regulations. We have entered into such agreements with our externalnon-executive directors, which limit the maximum amount of their respective liabilities to us to the minimum amount stipulated by applicable laws and regulations, so long as those directors act in good faith and without gross negligence in performing their duties.
As of March 31, 2019,2020, we had 49,57847,495 employees on a consolidated basis, of which 6,9416,509 employees were based in Japan and 42,63740,986 employees were based outside Japan.
We have concluded a collective bargaining agreement with the Takeda Pharmaceutical Workers Union, through which we have established sound relations with our employees in Japan. We hold regular dialogues with the union concerning, among other issues, conditions of employment and human resources practices. Similarly, all of our group companies hold discussions with their respective workers unions and employee representatives in accordance with local laws. We have an employee stock ownership association for employees of Takeda.

Book-Entry Transfer System
The Japanese book-entry transfer system for listed shares of Japanese companies under the Book-Entry Act of Japan (the “Book-Entry Act”) applies to the shares of our common stock. Under this system, shares of all Japanese companies listed on any Japanese stock exchange are dematerialized. Under the book-entry transfer system, in order for any person to hold, sell or otherwise dispose of listed shares of Japanese companies, they must have an account at an account management institution unless such person has an account at Japan Securities Depository Center, Incorporated (the “JASDEC”). “Account management institutions” are financial instruments business operators (i.e., securities firms), banks, trust companies and certain other financial institutions that meet the requirements prescribed by the Book-Entry Act, and only those financial institutions that meet the further stringent requirements of the Book-Entry Act can open accounts directly at JASDEC.
The following description of the book-entry transfer system assumes that the relevant person has no account at JASDEC.
Under the Book-Entry Act, any transfer of shares is affected through book-entry, and the title to the shares passes to the transferee at the time when the transferred number of shares is recorded in the transferee’s account at an account management institution. The holder of an account at an account management institution is presumed to be the legal owner of the shares held in such account.
Under the Companies Act, in order to assert shareholders’ rights against us, the transferee must have its name and address registered in the register of our shareholders, except in limited circumstances. Under the book-entry transfer system, such registration is generally made upon receipt of an all shareholders notice (soukabunushi tsuchi) (as described in “— Register of Shareholders”) from JASDEC. For this purpose, shareholders are required to file their names and addresses with our transfer agent through the account management institution and JASDEC. See “— Register of Shareholders” for more information.
Non-resident shareholders are required to appoint a standing proxy in Japan or provide a mailing address in Japan. Each such shareholder must give notice of its standing proxy or a mailing address to the relevant account management institution. Such notice will be forwarded to our transfer agent through JASDEC. Japanese securities firms and commercial banks customarily act as standing proxies and provide related services for standard fees. Notices from us to non-resident shareholders are delivered to the standing proxies or mailing addresses.
Register of Shareholders
Under the book-entry transfer system, the registration of names, addresses and other information of shareholders in the register of our shareholders will be made by us upon the receipt of an all shareholders notice (with the exception that in the event of the issuance of new shares, we will register the names, addresses and other information of our shareholders in the register of our shareholders without an all shareholders notice from JASDEC) given to us by JASDEC, which will give us such all shareholders notice based on information provided by the account management institutions. Such all shareholders notice will be made only in cases prescribed under the Book-Entry Act such as when we fix the record date and when we make a request to JASDEC with any justifiable reason. Therefore, a shareholder may not assert shareholders’ rights against us immediately after such shareholder acquires our shares, unless such shareholder’s name and address are registered in the register of our shareholders upon our receipt of an all shareholders notice; provided, however, that, in respect of the exercise of rights of minority shareholders as defined in the Book-Entry Act, a shareholder may exercise such rights upon giving us an individual shareholder notice (kobetsukabunushi tsuchi) through JASDEC only during a certain period prescribed under the Book-Entry Act.
Distribution of Surplus
Under the Companies Act, the distribution of dividends takes the form of distribution of Surplus (as defined in “—Restriction on Distribution of Surplus”), and a distribution of Surplus may be made in cash and/or in kind, with no restrictions on the timing and frequency of such distributions. The Companies Act generally requires a joint-stock corporation to make distributions of Surplus authorized by a resolution of a general meeting of shareholders. However, in accordance with the Companies Act, our Articles of Incorporation provide that the board of directors has the authority to make decisions regarding distributions of Surplus, except for limited exceptions, as provided by the Companies Act, as long as the company that has both of an independent auditor and an audit and supervisory committee satisfies the following requirements:
| |
| (a) | the normal term of office of directors who are not audit and supervisory committee members expires at the close of the ordinary general meeting of shareholders held with respect to the last fiscal year ended within one year after their election (our Articles of Incorporation currently satisfies this requirement); and |
| |
| (b) | its non-consolidated annual financial statements and certain documents for the latest fiscal year fairly present its assets and profit or loss, as required by the ordinances of the Ministry of Justice. |
A resolution of a general meeting of shareholders or the board of directors authorizing a distribution of Surplus must specify the kind and aggregate book value of the assets to be distributed, the manner of allocation of such assets to shareholders and the effective date of the distribution. If a distribution of Surplus is to be made in kind, we may, pursuant to a resolution of a general meeting of shareholders or the board of directors, grant a right to the shareholders to require us to make such distribution in cash instead of in kind. If no such right is granted to shareholders, the relevant distribution of Surplus must be approved by a special resolution of a general meeting of shareholders. See “— Voting Rights” for more details regarding a special resolution. Our Articles of Incorporation provide that we are relieved of our obligation to pay any distributions in cash that go unclaimed for three years after the date they first become payable.
Restriction on Distribution of Surplus
Under the Companies Act, we may distribute Surplus up to the excess of the aggregate of (a) and (b) below, less the aggregate of (c) through (f) below, as of the effective date of such distribution, if our net assets are not less than ¥3,000,000:3,000,000 JPY:
| |
| (a) | the amount of Surplus, as described below; |
| |
| (b) | in the event that extraordinary financial statements as of, or for a period from the beginning of the fiscal year to, the specified date are approved, the aggregate amount of (i) the aggregate amount as provided for by an ordinance of the Ministry of Justice as the net profit for such period described in the statement of incomeprofit and loss constituting the extraordinary financial statements, and (ii) the amount of consideration that we received for the treasury stock that we disposed of during such period; |
| |
| (c) | the book value of our treasury stock; |
| |
| (d) | in the event that we disposed of treasury stock after the end of the previous fiscal year, the amount of consideration that we received for such treasury stock; |
| |
| (e) | in the event described in (b) in this paragraph, the aggregate amount as provided for by an ordinance of the Ministry of Justice as the net loss for such period described in the statement of incomeprofit and loss constituting the extraordinary financial statements; and |
| |
| (f) | certain other amounts set forth in the ordinances of the Ministry of Justice, including (if the sum of one-half of goodwill and the deferred assets exceeds the total of share capital, additional paid-in capital and legal earnings reserve, each such amount as it appears on the balance sheet as of the end of the previous fiscal year) all or a certain part of such excess amount as calculated in accordance with the ordinances of the Ministry of Justice. |
For the purposes of this section, the amount of “Surplus” is the excess of the aggregate of (I) through (IV) below, less the aggregate of (V) through (VII) below:
| |
| (I) | the aggregate of other capital surplus and other retained earnings at the end of the previous fiscal year; |
| |
| (II) | in the event that we disposed of treasury stock after the end of the previous fiscal year, the difference between the book value of such treasury stock and the consideration that we received for such treasury stock; |
| |
| (III) | in the event that we reduced our share capital after the end of the previous fiscal year, the amount of such reduction less the portion thereof that has been transferred to additional paid-in capital and/or legal earnings reserve (if any); |
| |
| (IV) | in the event that we reduced additional paid-in capital and/or legal earnings reserve after the end of the previous fiscal year, the amount of such reduction less the portion thereof that has been transferred to share capital (if any); |
| |
| (V) | in the event that we cancelledcanceled treasury stock after the end of the previous fiscal year, the book value of such treasury stock; |
| |
| (VI) | in the event that we distributed Surplus after the end of the previous fiscal year, the aggregate of the following amounts: |
| |
| (1) | the aggregate amount of the book value of the distributed assets, excluding the book value of such assets that would be distributed to shareholders but for their exercise of the right to receive dividends in cash instead of dividends in kind; |
| |
| (2) | the aggregate amount of cash distributed to shareholders who exercised the right to receive dividends in cash instead of dividends in kind; and |
| |
| (3) | the aggregate amount of cash paid to shareholders holding fewer shares than the shares that were required in order to receive dividends in kind; |
| |
| (VII) | the aggregate amounts of (1) through (4) below, less (5) and (6) below: |
| |
| (1) | in the event that the amount of Surplus was reduced and transferred to additional paid-in capital, legal earnings reserve and/or share capital after the end of the previous fiscal year, the amount so transferred; |
| |
| (2) | in the event that we distributed Surplus after the end of the previous fiscal year, the amount set aside in additional paid-in capital and/or legal earnings reserve; |
| |
| (3) | in the event that we disposed of treasury stock in the process of (x) a merger in which we acquired all rights and obligations of a company, (y) a corporate split in which we acquired all or a part of the rights and obligations of a split company or (z) a share exchange in which we acquired all shares of a company after the end of the previous fiscal year, the difference between the book value of such treasury stock and the consideration that we received for such treasury stock; |
| |
| (4) | in the event that the amount of Surplus was reduced in the process of a corporate split in which we transferred all or a part of our rights and obligations after the end of the previous fiscal year, the amount so reduced; |
| |
| (5) | in the event of (x) a merger in which we acquired all rights and obligations of a company, (y) a corporate split in which we acquired all or a part of the rights and obligations of a split company or (z) a share exchange in which we acquired all shares of a company after the end of the previous fiscal year, the aggregate amount of (i) the amount of other capital surplus after such merger, corporate split or share exchange, less the amount of other capital surplus before such merger, corporate split or share exchange, and (ii) the amount of other retained earnings after such merger, corporate split or share exchange, less the amount of other retained earnings before such merger, corporate split or share exchange; and |
| |
| (6) | in the event that an obligation to cover a deficiency, such as the obligation of a person who subscribed for newly issued shares with an unfair amount to be paid in, was fulfilled after the end of the previous fiscal year, the amount of other capital surplus increased by such payment. |
In Japan, the “ex-dividend” date and the record date for any distribution of Surplus come before the date a company determines the amount of distribution of Surplus to be paid.
For information as to Japanese taxes on dividends, please refer tosee “Taxation — Japanese Taxation.”
Capital and Reserves
Under the Companies Act, the paid-in amount of any newly-issued shares of stock is required to be accounted for as share capital, although we may account for an amount not exceeding one-half of such paid-in amount as additional paid-in capital. We may generally reduce additional paid-in capital and/or legal earnings reserve by resolution of a general meeting of shareholders, subject to completion of protection procedures for creditors in accordance with the Companies Act, and, if so decided by the same resolution, we may account for the whole or any part of the amount of such reduction as share capital. We may generally reduce share capital by a special resolution of a general meeting of shareholders subject to completion of protection procedures for creditors in accordance with the Companies Act, and, if so decided by the same resolution, we may account for the whole or any part of the amount of such reduction as additional paid-in capital or legal earnings reserve.
Stock Splits
Under the Companies Act, we may at any time split shares in issue into a greater number of the same class of shares by a resolution of the board of directors or by determination of an individual director to whom the authority to make such determination has been delegated by resolution of the board of directors. A company that has issued only one class of shares may amend its articles of incorporation to increase the number of the authorized shares to be issued up to a number in proportion to the stock split by resolution of the board of directors or by determination of an individual director to whom the authority to make such determination has been delegated by resolution of the board of directors, rather than a special resolution of a general meeting of shareholders, which is otherwise required for amending the articles of incorporation. When a stock split is to be made, we must give public notice of the stock split, specifying the record date therefor, at least two weeks prior to such record date.
Under the book-entry transfer system, on the effective date of the stock split, the numbers of shares recorded in all accounts held by our shareholders at account management institutions will be increased in accordance with the applicable ratio.
Gratuitous Allocations
Under the Companies Act, we may allot any class of shares to our existing shareholders without any additional contribution by resolution of the board of directors or by determination of an individual director to whom the authority to make such determination has been delegated by resolution of the board of directors; provided that although our treasury stock may be allotted to our shareholders, any allotment of shares will not accrue to shares of our treasury stock.
When a gratuitous allocation is to be made and we set a record date therefor, we must give public notice of the gratuitous allocation, specifying the record date therefor, at least two weeks prior to the record date.
Under the book-entry transfer system, on the effective date of the gratuitous allocation, the number of shares of our common stock recorded in accounts held by our shareholders at account management institutions will be increased in accordance with a notice from us to JASDEC.
Reverse Stock Split
Under the Companies Act, we may at any time consolidate our shares into a smaller number of shares by a special resolution of the general meeting of shareholders. We must disclose the reason for the reverse stock split at the general meeting of shareholders. When a reverse stock split is to be made, we must give public notice of the reverse stock split, at least two weeks (or, in certain cases where any fractions of shares are left as a result of a reverse stock split, 20 days) prior to the effective date of the reverse stock split.
Under the book-entry transfer system, on the effective date of the reverse stock split, the numbers of shares recorded in all accounts held by our shareholders at account management institutions will be decreased in accordance with the applicable ratio.
Unit Share System
General
Our Articles of Incorporation provide that 100 shares constitute one “unit” of common stock. Our board of directors or an individual director to whom the authority to make such determination has been delegated by resolution of the board of directors is permitted to reduce the number of shares that will constitute one unit or to abolish the unit share system entirely by amending our Articles of Incorporation, without shareholders’ approval, with public notice without delay after the effective date of such amendment.
Transferability of Shares Constituting Less Than One Unit
Under the book-entry transfer system, shares constituting less than one unit are transferable. Under the rules of the Japanese stock exchanges, however, shares constituting less than one unit do not comprise a trading unit, except in limited circumstances, and accordingly may not be sold on the Japanese stock exchanges.
Voting Rights of a Holder of Shares Constituting Less Than One Unit
A holder of shares constituting less than one unit cannot exercise any voting rights pertaining to those shares. In calculating the quorum for various voting purposes, the aggregate number of shares constituting less than one unit will be excluded from the number of outstanding shares. A holder of shares representing one or more full units will have one vote for each full unit represented.
A holder of shares constituting less than one unit does not have any rights related to voting, such as the right to participate in a demand for the resignation of a director, the right to participate in a request for the convocation of a general meeting of shareholders and the right to join with other shareholders to propose a matter to be included in the agenda of a general meeting of shareholders.
Rights of a Holder of Shares Constituting Less Than One Unit to Require Us to Purchase Shares and to Sell Shares
Under the Companies Act, a holder of shares constituting less than one full unit may at any time request that we purchase such shares. In addition, our Articles of Incorporation provide that, pursuant to our Share Handling Regulations, a holder of shares constituting less than one full unit has the right to request that we sell to such holder such number of shares constituting less than one full unit which, when added to the shares constituting less than one full unit currently owned by such holder, will constitute one full unit.
Under the book-entry system, such a request must be made to us through the relevant account managing institution. The price at which shares of common stock constituting less than one unit will be purchased or sold by us pursuant to such a request will be equal to (a) the closing price of shares of our common stock reported by the Tokyo Stock Exchange on the day when the request is received by our transfer agent or (b) if no sale takes place on the Tokyo Stock Exchange on that day, the price at which the sale of shares of our common stock is executed on such stock exchange immediately thereafter.
General Meeting of Shareholders
Our ordinary general meeting of shareholders is usually held every June in Japan. The record date for an ordinary general meeting of shareholders is March 31 of each year. In addition, we may hold an extraordinary general meeting of shareholders whenever necessary by giving at least two weeks’ advance notice to shareholders.
Notice of convocation of a general meeting of shareholders setting forth the time, place, purpose thereof and certain other matters set forth in the Companies Act and relevant ordinances must be mailed to each shareholder having voting rights (or, in the case of a non-resident shareholder, to his or her standing proxy or mailing address in Japan) at least two weeks prior to the date set for such meeting. Such notice may be given to shareholders by electronic means, subject to the consent of the relevant shareholders.
Any shareholder or group of shareholders holding at least 3% of the total number of voting rights for a period of six months or more may require, with an individual shareholder notice (as described in “— Register of Shareholders”), the convocation of a general meeting of shareholders for a particular purpose. Unless such general meeting of shareholders is convened without delay or a convocation notice of a meeting which is to be held not later than eight weeks from the day of such demand is dispatched, the requiring shareholder may, upon obtaining a court approval, convene such general meeting of shareholders.
Any shareholder or group of shareholders holding at least 300 voting rights or 1% of the total number of voting rights for a period of six months or more may propose a matter to be included in the agenda of a general meeting of shareholders, and may propose to describe such matter together with a summary of the proposal to be submitted by such shareholder in a convocation notice to our shareholders, by submitting a request to a director at least eight weeks prior to the date set for such meeting, with an individual shareholder notice (as described in “— Register of Shareholders”).
The Companies Act enables a company to amend its articles of incorporation in order to loosen the requirements for the number of shares held and shareholding period, as well as the period required for dispatching a convocation notice or submission of requests, all of which are required for any shareholder or group of shareholders to request the convocation of a general meeting of shareholders or to propose a matter to be included in the agenda of a general meeting of shareholders. Our Articles of Incorporation do not provide for loosening such requirements.
Voting Rights
A shareholder of record is entitled to one vote per unit (100 shares) of common stock, except that neither we nor any corporation, partnership or other similar entity in which we hold, directly or indirectly, 25% or more of the voting rights shall exercise any voting rights in respect of shares held by us or such entity, as the case may be. Except as otherwise provided by law or by our Articles of Incorporation, a resolution can be adopted at a general meeting of shareholders by a majority of the voting rights represented at the meeting. Shareholders may also exercise their voting rights through proxies, provided that the proxy is granted to one of our shareholders having voting rights. The Companies Act and our Articles of Incorporation provide that the quorum for the election of directors is one-third of the total number of voting rights. Our Articles of Incorporation provide that the shares may not be voted cumulatively for the election of directors.
The Companies Act provides that a special resolution of the general meeting of shareholders is required for certain significant corporate transactions, including:
any amendment to our Articles of Incorporation (except for amendments that may be made without the approval of shareholders under the Companies Act);
a reduction of share capital, subject to certain exceptions under which a shareholders’ resolution is not required, such as a reduction of share capital for the purpose of replenishing capital deficiencies;
transfer of the whole or a part of our equity interests in any of our subsidiaries, subject to certain exceptions under which a shareholders’ resolution is not required;
a dissolution, merger or consolidation, subject to certain exceptions under which a shareholders’ resolution is not required;
the transfer of the whole or a substantial part of our business, subject to certain exceptions under which a shareholders’ resolution is not required;
the taking over of the whole of the business of any other corporation, subject to certain exceptions under which a shareholders’ resolution is not required;
a corporate split, subject to certain exceptions under which a shareholders’ resolution is not required;
a share exchange (kabushiki kokan) or share transfer (kabushiki iten) for the purpose of establishing 100% parent-subsidiary relationships, subject to certain exceptions under which a shareholders’ resolution is not required;
any issuance of new shares or transfer of existing shares held by us as treasury stock at a “specially favorable” price and any issuance of stock acquisition rights or bonds with stock acquisition rights at a “specially favorable” price or on “specially favorable” conditions to any persons other than shareholders;
any acquisition by us of our own shares from specific persons other than our subsidiaries;
reverse stock split; or
the removal of directors who are audit and supervisory committee members.
Except as otherwise provided by law or in our Articles of Incorporation, a special resolution of the general meeting of shareholders requires the approval of the holders of at least two-thirds of the voting rights of all shareholders present or represented at a meeting where a quorum is present. Our Articles of Incorporation provide that a quorum exists when one-third of the total number of voting rights is present or represented.
Liquidation Rights
If we are liquidated, the assets remaining after payment of all taxes, liquidation expenses and debts will be distributed among shareholders in proportion to the number of shares they hold.
Rights to Allotment of Shares
Holders of shares of our common stock have no pre-emptive rights. Authorized but unissued shares may be issued at the times and on the terms as the board of directors or an individual director to whom the authority to make such determination has been delegated by resolution of the board of directors determines, so long as the limitations with respect to the issuance of new shares at “specially favorable” prices (as described in “— Voting Rights”) are observed. Our board of directors or an individual director to whom the authority to make such determination has been delegated by resolution of the board of directors may, however, determine that shareholders shall be given rights to allotment regarding a particular issue of new shares, in which case such rights must be given on uniform terms to all holders of the shares as of a record date for which not less than two weeks’ prior public notice must be given. Each shareholder to whom such rights are given must also be given notice of the expiration date thereof at least two weeks prior to the date on which such rights expire. The rights to allotment of new shares may not be transferred. However, the Companies Act enables us to allot stock acquisition rights to shareholders without consideration therefor, and such stock acquisition rights are transferable. See “— Stock Acquisition Rights” below.
In cases where a particular issuance of new shares (i) violates laws and regulations or our Articles of Incorporation, or (ii) will be performed in a manner materially unfair, and shareholders may suffer disadvantages therefrom, such shareholders may file an injunction with a court of law to enjoin such issuance.
Stock Acquisition Rights
Subject to certain conditions and to the limitations on issuances at a “specially favorable” price or on “specially favorable” conditions described in “— Voting Rights,” we may issue stock acquisition rights (shinkabu yoyakuken) and bonds with stock acquisition rights (shinkabu yoyakuken-tsuki shasai) by a resolution of the board of directors or by determination of an individual director to whom the authority to make such determination has been delegated by resolution of the board of directors. Holders of stock acquisition rights may exercise their rights to acquire a certain number of shares within the exercise period as set forth in the terms of their stock acquisition rights. Upon exercise of stock acquisition rights, we will be obligated either to issue the relevant number of new shares or, alternatively, to transfer the necessary number of shares of treasury stock held by us.
Record Date
The record date for annual dividends and the determination of shareholders entitled to vote at the ordinary general meeting of our shareholders is March 31. The record date for interim dividends is September 30.
In addition, by a resolution of the board of directors or by determination of an individual director to whom the authority to make such determination has been delegated by resolution of the board of directors, we may set a record date for determining the shareholders entitled to other rights and for other purposes by giving at least two weeks’ prior public notice.
Under the rules of JASDEC, we are required to give notice of each record date to JASDEC promptly after setting such record date. JASDEC is required to promptly give us notice of the names and addresses of the holders of shares of our common stock, the number of shares of our common stock held by them and other relevant information as at each record date.
Purchase of Our Own Shares
Under the Companies Act and our Articles of Incorporation, we may acquire our own shares:
by purchase on any stock exchange on which our shares are listed or by way of tender offer, pursuant to a resolution of our board of directors subject to certain requirements;
by purchase from a specific party other than any of our subsidiaries, pursuant to a special resolution of a general meeting of shareholders; and
by purchase from any of our subsidiaries, pursuant to a resolution of the board of directors or determination of an individual director to whom the authority to make such determination has been delegated by resolution of the board of directors.
If we acquire our own shares from a specific party other than any of our subsidiaries as specified above at a price higher than the greater of (i) (a) the closing price of the shares at the market trading such shares on the day immediately preceding the day on which the relevant special resolution of a general meeting of shareholders is made or (b) if no sale takes place at such market on that day, the price at which the sale of the shares is effected on such market immediately thereafter and (ii) in the event that such shares are subject to a tender offer, the price set in the contract regarding such tender offer on that day, shareholders may request that we include him or her as the seller of his or her shares in the proposed purchase. Any such acquisition of shares must satisfy certain requirements, such as that we may only acquire our own shares in an aggregate amount up to the amount that we may distribute as Surplus. See “— Distribution of Surplus” above for more details regarding this amount.
Our own shares acquired by us may be held by us as treasury stock for any period or may be cancelledcanceled by resolution of the board of directors or by determination of an individual director to whom the authority to make such determination has been delegated by resolution of the board of directors. We may also transfer the shares held by us to any person, subject to a resolution of the board of directors or determination of an individual director to whom the authority to make such determination has been delegated by resolution of the board of directors, and subject also to other requirements similar to those applicable to the issuance of new shares, as described in “— Rights to Allotment of Shares” above. We may also utilize our treasury stock (x) for the purpose of transfer to any person upon exercise of stock acquisition rights or (y) for the purpose of acquiring another company by way of merger, share exchange, or corporate split through exchange of treasury stock for shares or assets of the acquired company.
Request by Controlling Shareholder to Sell All Shares
Under the Companies Act and our Articles of Incorporation, in general, a shareholder holding 90% or more of our voting rights, directly or through wholly-owned subsidiaries, shall have the right to request that all other shareholders other than us (and all other holders of stock acquisition rights other than us, as the case may be) sell all shares (and all stock acquisition rights, as the case may be) held by them with our approval, which must be made by a resolution of the board of directors or by determination of an individual director to whom the authority to make such determination has been delegated by resolution of the board of directors (kabushiki tou uriwatashi seikyu or a “Share Sales Request”). In order to make a Share Sales Request, such controlling shareholder will be required to issue a prior notice to us. If we approve such Share Sales Request, we will be required to make a public notice to all holders and registered pledgees of shares (and stock acquisition rights, as the case may be) not later than 20 days before the effective date of such sales.
Sale by Us of Shares Held by Shareholders Whose Addresses Are Unknown
Under the Companies Act, we are not required to send a notice to a shareholder if notices to such shareholder fail to arrive for a continuous period of five or more years at the registered address of such shareholder in the register of our shareholders or at the address otherwise notified to us.
In addition, we may sell or otherwise dispose of the shares held by a shareholder whose location is unknown. Generally, if
notices to a shareholder fail to arrive for a continuous period of five or more years at the shareholder’s registered address in the register of our shareholders or at the address otherwise notified to us, and
the shareholder fails to receive distribution of Surplus on the shares for a continuous period of five or more years at the address registered in the register of our shareholders or at the address otherwise notified to us,
we may sell or otherwise dispose of the shareholder’s shares at the market price after giving at least three months’ prior public and individual notices, and hold or deposit the proceeds of such sale or disposal for the shareholder.
Reporting of Substantial Shareholdings
The Financial Instruments and Exchange Law of Japan and its related regulations require any person who has become beneficially, solely or jointly, a holder of more than 5% of total issued shares of our common stock, to file with the director of a relevant local finance bureau of the Ministry of Finance within five business days a report concerning such shareholdings. With certain exceptions, a similar report must also be filed in respect of any subsequent change of 1% or more in any such holdings or any change in material matters set out in reports previously filed. For this purpose, shares of our common stock issuable to such person upon exchange of exchangeable securities, conversion of convertible securities or exercise of warrants or stock acquisition rights (including those incorporated in bonds with stock acquisition rights) are taken into account in determining both the number of our shares held by the holder and our total issued shares.

Licensing and Collaboration Agreements
In the ordinary course of our business, we enter into agreements for licensing or collaboration in the development and commercialization of products. Our business does not materially depend on any one of these agreements. Instead, they overall form a portion of our strategy to leverage a mix of internal and external resources to develop and commercialize new products. Certain of the agreements which have led to successful commercialization to date are summarized in “Item 4. Information on the Company—B. Business Overview—Licensing and Collaboration.” Our Licensing and Collaboration Agreement with Seattle Genetics, Inc. is filed as an exhibit hereto to provide investors with an example of one such agreement. We believe this agreement is representative of our licensing and collaboration agreements for marketed products in that it provides for the payment of development and commercial milestone payments and sales-based royalties and sets forth the parties’ responsibilities relating to the terms of co-development, co-manufacturing and co-marketing efforts, as well as providing for geographic limitations and limitations on term for the relevant licensing and collaboration efforts. The specific terms of each of our licensing or collaboration agreements are negotiated individually. Agreements for compounds still in development may have additional terms governing, for example, equity investments or other capital relationships.

| D. | Exchange Controls.Controls |
The Foreign Exchange and Foreign Trade Act of Japan (Gaikoku Kawase oyobi Gaikoku Boueki Hou) (the “FEFTA”) and related cabinet orders and ministerial ordinances, which we refer to collectively as the Foreign Exchange Regulations, govern certain aspects relating to the acquisition and holding of shares by “exchange non-residents” and by “foreign investors” (as these terms are defined below). It also applies in some cases to the acquisition and holding of ADSs representing shares of our common stock acquired and held by exchange non-residents and by foreign investors. In general, the Foreign Exchange Regulations currently in effect do not affect transactions between exchange non-residents to purchase or sell shares or ADSs outside Japan using currencies other than Japanese yen.
Exchange residents are defined in the Foreign Exchange Regulations as:
| |
| (i) | individuals who reside within Japan; or |
| |
| (ii) | corporations whose principal offices are located within Japan. |
Exchange non-residents are defined in the Foreign Exchange Regulations as:
| |
| (i) | individuals who do not reside in Japan; or |
| |
| (ii) | corporations whose principal offices are located outside Japan. |
Generally, branches and other offices of non-resident corporations located within Japan are regarded as exchange residents. Conversely, branches and other offices of Japanese corporationscompanies located outside Japan are regarded as exchange non-residents.
Foreign investors are defined in the Foreign Exchange Regulations as:
| |
| (i) | individuals who do not reside in Japan; |
| |
| (ii) | corporations or other entities organized under the laws of foreign countries or whose principal offices are located outside Japan; |
| |
| (iii) | corporations of which 50% or more of the total voting rights are held, directly or indirectly, by individuals and/or corporations falling within (i) and/or (ii) above; or |
| |
| (iv) | general partnerships or limited partnerships under Japanese law or any similar partnerships under non-Japanese laws, where either: (A) 50% or more of the capital contributions to those entities are made by individuals who do not reside in Japan or certain other foreign investors or (B) a majority of the general partners of such entities are individuals who do not reside in Japan or certain other foreign investors; or |
| |
| (v) | corporations or other entities havingof which a majority of either (A) directors or other persons equivalent thereto or (B) directors or other persons equivalent thereto having the power of representation who are non-resident individuals. |
Acquisition of Shares
Acquisition by an exchange non-resident of shares of a Japanese corporationcompany from an exchange resident requires post facto reporting by the exchange resident to the Minister of Finance of Japan through the Bank of Japan. No such reporting requirement is imposed, however, if:
| |
| (i) | the aggregate purchase price of the relevant shares is ¥100100 million JPY or less; |
| |
| (ii) | the acquisition is affectedeffected through any bank, financial instruments business operator or other entity prescribed by the Foreign Exchange Regulations acting as an agent or intermediary; or |
| |
| (iii) | the acquisition constitutes an “inward direct investment” described below. |
Inward Direct Investment in Shares of Listed Corporations
Inward Direct Investment
If a foreign investor acquires shares or voting rights of a Japanese company that areis listed on a Japanese stock exchange, such as the shares of our common stock and ADSs, or that areis traded on an over-the-counter market in Japan and, as a result of the acquisition, the foreign investor, in combination with any existing holdings and holdings of its closely-related persons, directly or indirectly holds 10%1% or more of (i) the issued shares or (ii) the total voting rights of the relevant company (shares and voting rights of the relevant company to be acquired are referred to as the “Inward Direct Investment Shares”), such acquisition constitutes an “inward direct investment” under the FEFTA.
PriorNotification
Where a foreign investor intends to acquire the Inward Direct Investment Shares, and any of the business conducted by the investee Japanese company falls within any business sectors designated under the Foreign Exchange Regulations (Shitei-Gyoshu) (this is our case), in principle, a notification of the acquisition must be made to the Minister of Finance in advance and any other competent Ministers having jurisdiction over that Japanese company (including the MHLW).
If such notification is made, the proposed acquisition cannot be consummated until 30 days have passed after the date of such notification (this period is referred to as the “Screening Period”); provided, however, that the Screening Period will be shortened to two weeks unless any of the relevant Ministers finds it necessary to check whether the proposed acquisition should be restricted from the viewpoint of national security or certain other factors. If the relevant Ministers find it necessary to check whether the proposed acquisition should be restricted, the Ministers may extend the Screening Period for up to five months; and the Ministers may eventually recommend any modifications to, or abandonment of, the proposed acquisition if necessary from the viewpoint of national security or certain other factors. If the foreign investor does not accept any of the recommendations, the relevant Ministers may order that the proposed acquisition be modified or abandoned.
Foreign investors acquiring the Inward Direct Investment Shares by way of a stock split are not subject to these notification requirements.
In addition, certain other activities of a foreign investor such as (i) voting for appointment of his/herself or a person related thereto as a director or corporate auditor of a company conducting the designated business and (ii) proposal and voting for transfer or abolishment of any designated business also constitute “inward direct investments” and, as a result, are subject to the prior notification requirements under the FEFTA.
Exemption from Prior Notification
Irrespective the foregoing, where any of the business conducted by the investee Japanese company falls within any designated business sector (Shitei-Gyoshu) other than core business sectors (Core-Gyoshu) specified in the Foreign Exchange Regulations (we are currently conducting no business belonging to core business sectors), the foreign investor including foreign financial institutions who complies with the following conditions is not required to make a prior notification upon his/her acquisition of the Inward Direct Investment since an exemption from prior notification requirements is applied;
| |
| (a) | the foreign investor and its closely-related persons will not become board members of the Japanese company; |
| |
| (b) | the foreign investor will not propose transfer or disposition of the Japanese company’s business activities in the designated business sectors to or at the general shareholders’ meeting; and |
| |
| (c) | the foreign investor will not access non-public information about the Japanese company’s technology in relation with business activities in the designated business sectors. |
This exemption is not applicable to certain types of foreign investors (for example, a foreign investor with a certain record of sanctions due to violation of the Foreign Exchange Regulation, or state-owned enterprises), and such foreign investors must file the prior notification set forth above.
Post Transaction Report
A foreign investor who has made a prior notification mentioned above must file a post transaction report of the acquisition(the “Post Transaction Report”) with the Minister of Finance and any other competent Ministers having jurisdiction over that Japanese company by the 15th daywithin 45 days after his/hers acquisition of the month immediately followingInward Direct Investment Shares.
A foreign investor who acquires the month to which the date ofInward Direct Investment Shares in reliance with an exemption from prior notification, in principle, must file a Post Transaction Report within 45 days after such acquisition, belongs. In limited circumstances, such as whereif the total holding of Shares of him/her and his/her closely-related person reaches:
| |
| (i) | 1% for the first time; |
| |
| (ii) | 3% for the first time; and |
| |
| (iii) | 10% or more for each acquisition. |
provided, however, that foreign investor is in a country that is not listed on an exemption schedulefinancial institutions specified in the Foreign Exchange Regulations or where that Japanese company is engaged in certain businesses designatedare only required to file a Post Transaction Report for (iii) above.
Foreign investors acquiring the Inward Direct Investment Shares by way of a stock split are not subject to the Post Transaction Report requirements.
Expansion of core business sectors
As of June 11, while a specific timeline has not been determined, the Foreign Exchange Regulations (includingis expected to be amended in order to include businesses manufacturing pharmaceuticals for pathogens in the manufacturingcore business sectors. After such amendment, a foreign investors who will invest in Japanese companies conducting such business, including us (other than the foreign financial institutions specified in the Foreign Exchange Regulations and complying with the conditions for exemption mentioned above) will be required to make a prior notification; provided, however, that if such foreign investor (i) acquires less than 10% of biological preparations),the Inward Direct Investment Shares (comprised of the aggregate amount of any existing holdings and holdings of its closely-related persons) of such Japanese company, and (ii) satisfies the following conditions in addition to conditions (a) to (c) set forth in “Exemption from Prior Notification” above, a prior notification of the acquisition must be filed with the Minister of Finance and any other competent Ministers (including the Minister of Health, Labour and Welfare). The proposed acquisition maywill not be consummated until 30 days have passed from the date of filing of such notification, although this period will be shortened to two weeks unless such Ministers deem it necessary to review the proposed acquisition. The relevant Ministers may extend the screening period up to five months if they deem it necessary to review the proposed acquisition and may recommend any modification or abandonment of the proposed acquisition and, if such recommendation is not accepted, they may order the modification or abandonment of such acquisition.required;
Acquisition of shares by foreign investors by way of stock split is not subject to any of the foregoing notification or reporting requirements.

| (x) | Such foreign investor will not attend the Japanese companies’ board of directors or executive committees that make important decisions in business activities in core business sectors; and |
| |
| (y) | Such foreign investor will not make any proposals, in a written form, to the Japanese companies’ board of directors or executive committees or their members with request that they respond and/or take any actions by certain deadlines in connection with business activities in core sectors. |

Under the Foreign Exchange Regulations, dividends paid on, and the proceeds from sales in Japan of, shares held by exchange non-residents may generally be converted into any foreign currency and repatriated abroad.
E. Taxation.Taxation
Material U.S. Federal Income Tax Consequences
This section describes the material United StatesU.S. federal income tax consequences of owning ADSs. It applies to you only if you are a U.S. holder (as defined below) and you hold your ADSs as capital assets for tax purposes. This discussion addresses only United StatesU.S. federal income taxation and does not discuss all of the tax consequences that may be relevant to you in light of your individual circumstances, including foreign, state or local tax consequences, estate and gift tax consequences, and tax consequences arising under the Medicare contribution tax on net investment income or the alternative minimum tax. This section does not apply to you if you are a member of a special class of holders subject to special rules, including:
a dealer in securities,
a trader in securities that elects to use a mark-to-market method of accounting for securities holdings,
a tax-exempt organization,
a life insurance company,
a person that actually or constructively owns 10% or more of the combined voting power of our voting stock or of the total value of our stock,
a person that holds ADSs as part of a straddle or a hedging or conversion transaction,
a person that purchases or sells ADSs as part of a wash sale for tax purposes, or
a person whose functional currency is not the U.S. dollar.
This section is based on the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, its legislative history, existing and proposed regulations, published rulings and court decisions, all as currently in effect, as well as on the Convention Between the Government of the United States of America and the Government of Japan for the Avoidance of Double Taxation and the Prevention of Fiscal Evasion with Respect to Taxes on Income (the “Treaty”). These
laws are subject to change, possibly on a retroactive basis. In addition, this section is based in part upon the assumption that each obligation in the deposit agreement will be performed in accordance with its terms.
If an entity or arrangement that is treated as a partnership for United StatesU.S. federal income tax purposes holds the ADSs, the United StatesU.S. federal income tax treatment of a partner will generally depend on the status of the partner and the tax treatment of the partnership. A partner in a partnership holding the ADSs should consult its tax advisor with regard to the United StatesU.S. federal income tax treatment of an investment in the ADSs.
You are a U.S. holder if you are a beneficial owner of ADSs and you are for United StatesU.S. federal income tax purposes:
a citizen or resident of the United States,U.S.,
a domestic corporation,
an estate whose income is subject to United StatesU.S. federal income tax regardless of its source, or
a trust if a United StatesU.S. court can exercise primary supervision over the trust’s administration and one or more United StatesU.S. persons are authorized to control all substantial decisions of the trust.
You should consult your own tax advisor regarding the United StatesU.S. federal, state and local tax consequences of owning and disposing of ADSs in your particular circumstances.
In general, and taking into account the earlier assumptions, for United StatesU.S. federal income tax purposes, if you hold ADRs evidencing ADSs, you will be treated as the owner of the shares represented by those ADRs. Exchanges of shares for ADRs, and ADRs for shares, generally will not be subject to United StatesU.S. federal income tax.
The tax treatment of your ADSs will depend in part on whether or not we are classified as a passive foreign investment company, or PFIC, for United StatesU.S. federal income tax purposes. Except as discussed below under “—PFIC“PFIC Rules”, this discussion assumes that we are not classified as a PFIC for United StatesU.S. federal income tax purposes.
Distributions. Under the United StatesU.S. federal income tax laws, if you are a U.S. holder, the gross amount of any distribution we pay out of our current or accumulated earnings and profits (as determined for United StatesU.S. federal income tax purposes), other than certain pro-rata distributions of our shares, will be treated as a dividend that is subject to United StatesU.S. federal income taxation. If you are a noncorporate U.S. holder, dividends that constitute qualified dividend income will be taxable to you at the preferential rates applicable to long-term capital gains provided that you hold the ADSs for more than 60 days during the 121-day period beginning 60 days before the ex-dividend date and meet other holding period requirements. Dividends that we distribute with respect to the ADSs will be qualified dividend income if the ADSs are readily tradable on an established securities market in the United StatesU.S. in the year that we distribute the dividend. Our ADSs will beare listed on the NYSE, in which case theso our ADSs will beare currently treated as readily tradable on an established securities market in the United States.U.S. We therefore expect that dividends that we distribute on our ADSs will be qualified dividend income.income, provided the aforementioned holding period requirements are satisfied by the holder of our ADSs.
You must include any Japanese tax withheld from the dividend payment in this gross amount even though you do not in fact receive it. The dividend is taxable to you when the depositary receives the dividend, actually or constructively. The dividend will not be eligible for the dividends-received deduction generally allowed to United StatesU.S. corporations in respect of dividends received from other United StatesU.S. corporations. The amount of the dividend distribution that you must include in income will be the U.S. dollar value of the yen payments made, determined at the spot yen/U.S. dollar rate on the date the depositary actually or constructively receives the dividend, even if the depositary (a) converts the yen into U.S. dollars at a different rate or (b) does not convert the dividend payment into U.S. dollars. If the depositary converts the yen into U.S. dollars at a different rate, then you will recognize U.S. source ordinary income (that would not be treated as qualified dividends) or loss equal to the difference between the U.S. dollars that you receive and the U.S. dollar amount that you included as dividend income. If the depositary does not convert the dividend payment into U.S. dollars, then you will recognize U.S. source ordinary income (that would not be treated as qualified dividends) or loss upon a conversion of the yen into U.S. dollars equal to the difference between the U.S. dollars that you receive in the conversion and the U.S. dollar amount that you included as dividend income.
Distributions in excess of current and accumulated earnings and profits, as determined for United StatesU.S. federal income tax purposes, will be treated as a non-taxable return of capital to the extent of your basis in the ADSs and thereafter as capital gain. However, we do not expect to calculate earnings and profits in accordance with United StatesU.S. federal income tax principles. Accordingly, you should expect to generally treat distributions we make as dividends.
Subject to certain limitations, the Japanese tax withheld in accordance with the Treaty and paid over to Japan will be creditable or deductible against your United StatesU.S. federal income tax liability. Special rules apply in determining the foreign tax credit limitation with respect to dividends that are subject to the preferential tax rates. To the extent a reduction or refund of the tax withheld is available to you under Japanese law or under the Treaty, the amount of tax withheld that could have been reduced or that is refundable will not be eligible for credit against your United StatesU.S. federal income tax liability.
Dividends will generally be income from sources outside the United StatesU.S. and will generally be “passive” income for purposes of computing the foreign tax credit allowable to you. However, if (a) we are 50% or more owned, by vote or value, by United StatesU.S. persons and (b) at least 10% of our earnings and profits are attributable to sources within the United States,U.S., then for foreign tax credit purposes, a portion of our dividends would be
treated as derived from sources within the United States.U.S. With respect to any dividend paid for any taxable year, the United StatesU.S. source ratio of our dividends for foreign tax credit purposes would be equal to the portion of our earnings and profits from sources within the United StatesU.S. for such taxable year, divided by the total amount of our earnings and profits for such taxable year.
Distributions of additional shares to you with respect to ADSs that are made as part of a pro rata distribution to all of our shareholders generally will not be subject to United StatesU.S. federal income tax.
Capital Gains. If you are a U.S. holder and you sell or otherwise dispose of your ADSs, you will recognize capital gain or loss for United StatesU.S. federal income tax purposes equal to the difference between the U.S. dollar value of the amount that you realize and your tax basis, determined in U.S. dollars, in your ADSs. Capital gain of a noncorporate U.S. holder is generally taxed at preferential rates where the property is held for more than one year. The gain or loss will generally be income or loss from sources within the United StatesU.S. for foreign tax credit limitation purposes.
PFIC Rules. We believe that ADSs should not currently be treated as stock of a PFIC for United StatesU.S. federal income tax purposes and we do not expect to become a PFIC in the foreseeable future. However, this conclusion is a factual determination that is made annually and thus may be subject to change. It is therefore possible that we could become a PFIC in a future taxable year.
In general, if you are a U.S. holder, we will be a PFIC with respect to you if for any taxable year in which you held our ADSs:
at least 75% of our gross income for the taxable year is passive income or
at least 50% of the value, determined on the basis of a quarterly average, of our assets is attributable to assets that produce or are held for the production of passive income.
“Passive income” generally includes dividends, interest, gains from the sale or exchange of investment property, rents and royalties (other than certain rents and royalties derived in the active conduct of a trade or business) and certain other specified categories of income. If a foreign corporation owns at least 25% by value of the stock of another corporation, the foreign corporation is treated for purposes of the PFIC tests as owning its proportionate share of the assets of the other corporation, and as receiving directly its proportionate share of the other corporation’s income.
If we are treated as a PFIC, and you are a U.S. holder that did not make a mark-to-market election, as described below, you will generally be subject to special rules with respect to:
any gain you realize on the sale or other disposition of your ADSs and
any excess distribution that we make to you (generally, any distributions to you during a single taxable year, other than the taxable year in which your holding period in the ADSs begins, that are greater than 125% of the average annual distributions received by you in respect of the ADSs during the three preceding taxable years or, if shorter, your holding period for the ADSs that preceded the taxable year in which you receive the distribution).
Under these rules:
the gain or excess distribution will be allocated ratably over your holding period for the ADSs,
the amount allocated to the taxable year in which you realized the gain or excess distribution or to prior years before the first year in which we were a PFIC with respect to you will be taxed as ordinary income,
the amount allocated to each other prior year will be taxed at the highest tax rate in effect for that year, and
the interest charge generally applicable to underpayments of tax will be imposed in respect of the tax attributable to each such year.
Special rules apply for calculating the amount of the foreign tax credit with respect to excess distributions by a PFIC.
If we are a PFIC in a taxable year and our ADSs are treated as “marketable stock” in such year, you may make a mark-to-market election with respect to your ADSs. If you make this election, you will not be subject to the PFIC rules described above. Instead, in general, you will include as ordinary income each year the excess, if any, of the fair market value of your ADSs at the end of the taxable year over your adjusted basis in your ADSs. You will also be allowed to take an ordinary loss in respect of the excess, if any, of the adjusted basis of your ADSs over their fair market value at the end of the taxable year (but only to the extent of the net amount of previously included income as a result of the mark-to-market election). Your basis in the ADSs will be adjusted to reflect any such income or loss amounts. Any gain that you recognize on the sale or other disposition of your ADSs would be ordinary income and any loss would be an ordinary loss to the extent of the net amount of previously included income as a result of the mark-to-market election and, thereafter, a capital loss.
Your ADSs will generally be treated as stock in a PFIC if we were a PFIC at any time during your holding period in your ADSs, even if we are not currently a PFIC.
In addition, notwithstanding any election you make with regard to the ADSs, dividends that you receive from us will not constitute qualified dividend income to you if we are a PFIC (or are treated as a PFIC with respect to you) either in the taxable year of the distribution or the preceding taxable year. Dividends that you receive that do not constitute qualified dividend income are not eligible for taxation at the preferential rates applicable
to qualified dividend income. Instead, you must include the gross amount of any such dividend paid by us out of our accumulated earnings and profits (as determined for United StatesU.S. federal income tax purposes) in your gross income, and it will be subject to tax at rates applicable to ordinary income.
If you own ADSs during any year that we are a PFIC with respect to you, you may be required to file Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”) Form 8621. However, as mentioned above, we believe that ADSs should not currently be treated as stock of a PFIC for U.S. federal income tax purposes and we do not expect to become a PFIC in the foreseeable future.
Japanese Taxation
The following is a general summary of the principal Japanese tax consequences (limited to national tax) to owners of shares of our common stock, in the form of shares or ADSs, who are non-resident individuals of Japan or who are non-Japanese corporations without a permanent establishment in Japan, collectively referred to in this section as non-resident holders. The statements below regarding Japanese tax laws are based on the laws and treaties in force and as interpreted by the Japanese tax authorities as of the date of this annual report, and are subject to changes in applicable Japanese laws, tax treaties, conventions or agreements, or in the interpretation of them, occurring after that date. This summary is not exhaustive of all possible tax considerations that may apply to a particular investor, and potential investors are advised to satisfy themselves as to the overall tax consequences of the acquisition, ownership and disposition of shares of our common stock, including, specifically, the tax consequences under Japanese law, under the laws of the jurisdiction of which they are resident and under any tax treaty, convention or agreement between Japan and their country of residence, by consulting their own tax advisors.
For the purpose of Japanese tax law and the tax treaty between the United StatesU.S. and Japan, a U.S. holder of ADSs will generally be treated as the owner of the shares underlying the ADSs evidenced by the ADRs.
Generally, a non-resident holder of shares or ADSs will be subject to Japanese income tax collected by way of withholding on dividends (meaning in this section distributions made from our retained earnings for the Companies Act purposes) we pay with respect to shares of our common stock and such tax will be withheld prior to payment of dividends. Stock splits generally are not subject to Japanese income or corporation taxes.
In the absence of any applicable tax treaty, convention or agreement reducing the maximum rate of Japanese withholding tax or allowing exemption from Japanese withholding tax, the rate of the Japanese withholding tax applicable to dividends paid by Japanese corporations on their shares of stock to non-resident holders is generally 20.42% (or 20% for dividends due and payable on or after January 1, 2038) under Japanese tax law. However, with respect to dividends paid on listed shares issued by a Japanese corporation (such as shares or ADSs) to non-resident holders, other than any individual shareholder who holds 3% or more of the total number of shares issued by the relevant Japanese corporation (to whom the aforementioned withholding tax rate will still apply), the aforementioned withholding tax rate is reduced to (i) 15.315% for dividends due and payable up to and including December 31, 2037 and (ii) 15% for dividends due and payable on or after January 1, 2038. The withholding tax rates described above include the special reconstruction surtax (2.1% multiplied by the original applicable withholding tax rate, i.e., 15% or 20%, as the case may be), which is imposed during the period from and including January 1, 2013 to and including December 31, 2037, to fund the reconstruction from the Great East Japan Earthquake.
If distributions were made from our capital surplus, rather than retained earnings, for the Companies Act purposes, the portion of such distributions in excess of the amount corresponding to a pro rata portion of return of capital as determined under Japanese tax laws would be deemed dividends for Japanese tax purposes, while the rest would be treated as return of capital for Japanese tax purposes. The deemed dividend portion, if any, would generally be subject to the same tax treatment as dividends as described above, and the return of capital portion would generally be treated as proceeds derived from the sale of shares and subject to the same tax treatment as sale of shares of our common stock as described below. Distributions made in consideration of repurchase by us of our own shares or in connection with certain reorganization transactions will be treated substantially in the same manner.
Japan has income tax treaties whereby the withholding tax rate (including the special reconstruction surtax) may be reduced, generally to 15%, for portfolio investors, with, among others, Canada, Denmark, Finland, Germany, Ireland, Italy, Luxembourg, New Zealand, Norway, Singapore and Spain, while the income tax treaties with, among others, Australia, Belgium, France, Hong Kong, the Netherlands, Portugal, Sweden, Switzerland, the United Arab Emirates, the United KingdomU.K. and the United StatesU.S. generally reduce the withholding tax rate to 10% for portfolio investors. In addition, under the income tax treaty between Japan and the United States,U.S., dividends paid to pension funds which are qualified U.S. residents eligible to enjoy treaty benefits are exempt from Japanese income taxation by way of withholding or otherwise unless the dividends are derived from the carrying on of a business, directly or indirectly, by the pension funds. Similar treatment is applicable to dividends paid to pension funds under the income tax treaties between Japan and the Netherlands, Switzerland and the United Kingdom.U.K. Under Japanese tax law, any reduced maximum rate applicable under a tax treaty shall be available when such maximum rate is below the rate otherwise applicable under the Japanese tax law referred to in the second preceding paragraph with respect to the dividends to be paid by us on our shares or ADSs.
Non-resident holders of our shares who are entitled under an applicable tax treaty to a reduced rate of, or exemption from, Japanese withholding tax on any dividends on our shares, in general, are required to submit, through the withholding agent to the relevant tax authority prior to the payment of dividends, an Application Form for Income Tax Convention regarding Relief from Japanese Income Tax and Special Income Tax for Reconstruction on Dividends together with any required forms and documents. A standing proxy for a non-resident holder of shares of our common stock or ADSs may be used in order to submit the application on a non-resident holder’s behalf. In this regard, a certain simplified special filing procedure is available for non-resident holders to claim treaty benefits of reduction of or exemption from Japanese withholding tax, by submitting a Special Application Form for Income Tax Convention regarding Relief from Japanese Income Tax and Special Income Tax for Reconstruction on Dividends of Listed Stock, together with any required forms or documents. If the depositary needs investigation to identify whether any non-resident holders of ADSs are entitled to claim treaty benefits of exemption from or reduction of Japanese withholding tax, the depositary or its agent submits an application form before payment of dividends so that the withholding cannot be made in connection with such holders for eight months after the record date concerning such payment of dividends. If it is proved that such holders are entitled to claim treaty benefits of exemption from or reduction of Japanese withholding tax within the
foregoing eight-month period, the depositary or its agent submits another application form together with certain other documents so that such holder can be subject to exemption from or reduction of Japanese withholding tax. To claim this reduced rate or exemption, such non-resident holder of ADSs will be required to file a proof of taxpayer status, residence and beneficial ownership, as applicable, and to provide other information or documents as may be required by the depositary. Non-resident holders who are entitled, under any applicable tax treaty, to a reduced rate of Japanese withholding tax below the rate otherwise applicable under Japanese tax law, or exemption therefrom, as the case may be, but fail to submit the required application in advance may nevertheless be entitled to claim a refund from the relevant Japanese tax authority of withholding taxes withheld in excess of the rate under an applicable tax treaty (if such non-resident holders are entitled to a reduced treaty rate under the applicable tax treaty) or the full amount of tax withheld (if
(if such non-resident holders are entitled to an exemption under the applicable tax treaty), as the case may be, by complying with a certain subsequent filing procedure. We do not assume any responsibility to ensure withholding at the reduced treaty rate, or exemption therefrom, for shareholders who would be eligible under an applicable tax treaty but who do not follow the required procedures as stated above.
Gains derived from the sale of our shares or ADSs outside Japan by a non-resident holder that is a portfolio investor will generally not be subject to Japanese income or corporation taxes. Japanese inheritance and gift taxes, at progressive rates, may be payable by an individual who has acquired from another individual our shares or ADSs as a legatee, heir or done, even if none of the acquiring individual, the decedent or the donor is a Japanese resident.

| D. | American Depositary Shares |
Each ADS represents one-half of one share of our common stock deposited with our depositary’s (The Bank of New York Mellon) custodian (Sumitomo Mitsui Banking Corporation) in Japan. Each ADS will also represent any other securities, cash or other property which may be held by the depositary from time to time. The deposited shares of our common stock, together with any other securities, cash or other property held by the depositary are referred to as the “deposited securities.”
Fees and Expenses
|
| | |
| Persons depositing or withdrawing shares of our common stock or ADS holders must pay: | | For: |
$5.00 USD (or less) per 100 ADSs (or portion of 100 ADSs) | | Issue of ADSs, including issues resulting from a distribution of shares of our common stock or rights or other property |
| | | Cancellation of ADSs for the purpose of withdrawal, including if the deposit agreement terminates |
$0.05 USD (or less) per ADS | | Any cash distribution to ADS holders |
| A fee equivalent to the fee that would be payable if securities distributed to ADS holders had been shares of our common stock and the shares of our common stock had been deposited for issuance of ADSs | | Distribution of securities distributed to holders of deposited securities (including rights) that are distributed by the depositary to ADS holders |
$0.05 USD (or less) per ADS per calendar year | | Depositary services |
| Registration or transfer fees | | Transfer and registration of shares of our common stock on our share register to or from the name of the depositary or its agent when persons deposit or withdraw shares of our common stock |
| Expenses of the depositary | | Cable and facsimile transmissions (when expressly provided in the deposit agreement) |
| | | Converting foreign currency to U.S. dollars |
| Taxes and other governmental charges the depositary or the custodian has to pay on any ADSs or shares of our common stock underlying ADSs, such as stock transfer taxes, stamp duty or withholding taxes | | As necessary |
| Any charges incurred by the depositary or its agents for servicing the deposited securities | | As necessary |
The depositary collects its fees for delivery and surrender of ADSs directly from investors depositing shares of our common stock or surrendering ADSs for the purpose of withdrawal or from intermediaries acting for them. The depositary collects fees for making distributions to investors by deducting those fees from the amounts distributed or by selling a portion of distributable property to pay the fees. The depositary may collect its annual fee for depositary services by deduction from cash distributions or by directly billing investors or by charging the book-entry system accounts of participants acting for them. The depositary may collect any of its fees by deduction from any cash distribution payable (or by selling a portion of securities or other property distributable) to ADS holders that are obligated to pay those fees. The depositary may generally refuse to provide fee-attracting services until its fees for those services are paid.
In performing its duties under the deposit agreement, the depositary may use brokers, dealers, foreign currency dealers or other service providers that are owned by or affiliated with the depositary and that may earn or share fees, spreads or commissions.
The depositary may convert currency itself or through any of its affiliates and, in those cases, acts as principal for its own account and not as agent, advisor, broker or fiduciary on behalf of any other person and earns revenue, including, without limitation, transaction spreads, that it will retain for its own account. The revenue is based on, among other things, the difference between the exchange rate assigned to the currency conversion made under the deposit agreement and the rate that the depositary or its affiliate receives when buying or selling foreign currency for its own account. The depositary makes no representation that the exchange rate used or obtained in any currency conversion under the deposit agreement will be the most favorable rate that could be obtained at the time or that the method by which that rate will be determined will be the most favorable to ADS holders, subject to the depositary’s obligations under the deposit agreement. The methodology used to determine exchange rates used in currency conversions is available upon request.
Payment of Taxes
ADS holders will be responsible for any taxes or other governmental charges payable on their ADSs or on the deposited securities represented by any of their ADSs. The depositary may refuse to register any transfer of ADSs or allow an ADS holder to withdraw the deposited securities represented by his or her ADSs until those taxes or other charges are paid. It may apply payments owed to such ADS holder or sell deposited securities represented by such ADS holder’s ADSs to pay any taxes owed and such ADS holder will remain liable for any deficiency. If the depositary sells deposited securities, it will, if appropriate, reduce the number of ADSs to reflect the sale and pay to ADS holders any proceeds, or send to ADS holders any property, remaining after it has paid the taxes.
Direct and Indirect Payments by the Depositary
Pursuant to contractual arrangements between us and the depositary in place through January 8, 2019, the depositary had previously agreed to reimburse us for certain costs and expenses generally arising out of the establishment and maintenance of the ADS program. Costs and expenses for which the depositary has agreed to reimburse us for the fiscal year ending March 31, 2019 (through January 8, 2019), were approximately $250,000.
Beginning on January 8, 2019, theThe depositary has agreed to make revenue sharing payments to us based on a fixed portion of the net issuance, net cancellation cash dividend and net depositary servicing fees received by it under the deposit agreement, subject to a minimum annual payment based on the total of such fees received by the depositary. No payments were received under this revenue sharing arrangement Accordingly, in the fiscal year ended March 31, 2019.2020, we received 29.0 million USD of such revenue sharing payments.
The depositary has also agreed to waive fees and expenses for services provided to us, to ADS holders or to their respective brokers by the depositary in connection with the establishment, administration and ongoing servicing of the ADS program. Furthermore, the depositary has agreed to waive fees for certain value-added services, including training for our staff, investor relations advisory services and access to the depositary’s analytics and reporting platform. Accordingly, in the fiscal year ended March 31, 2019,2020, the depositary waived approximately $52,000 0.1 million USD of fees and expenses.

Pre‑Approval Policies and Procedures
Pursuant to Rule 2-01(c)(7)(i) of Regulation S-X, we have adopted policies and procedures under which all services (including permissible non-audit services) for which we or our subsidiaries engage our independent certified public accountant, KPMG AZSA LLC, and its affiliates must be approved by our Audit and Supervisory Committee prior to entering into an engagement.
All audit services are subject to the pre-approval by the Audit and Supervisory Committee in principle, regardless of monetary value. Audit services include statutory or financial statement audits for us and our subsidiaries, services associated with the audit of our management’s report on internal controls over financial reporting and services associated with the review of our quarterly financial statements. On a yearly basis, our management, following a review by our Chief Financial Officer, presents the proposed audit services to our Audit and Supervisory Committee for approval, and proposes audit fees on an entity basis to the Audit and Supervisory Committee for its consent. Once such services and fees are approved or consented to, as applicable, any additional audit services must be separately presented to and approved by our Audit and Supervisory Committee.
Permissible non-audit services, which are limited to certain services permissible under applicable regulation and our internal rules, are pre-approved by the Audit and Supervisory Committee for individual services below ¥2525 million JPY annually, subject to an aggregate annual limit of up to ¥250250 million JPY for all such services. These services are subject to review by our management for compliance with our internal policies. All non-audit services exceeding the applicable monetary limits or which are not clearly within the scope of permitted non-audit services must be presented to and pre-approved by the Audit and Supervisory Committee. All services relating to tax or internal control are also subject to separate presentation to and pre-approval by the Audit and Supervisory Committee regardless of monetary value.
Item 16D. Exemptions from the Listing Standards for Audit Committees.Committees
As of the date of this annual report, we do not rely on any of the exemptions contained in paragraph (b)(1)(iv), the general exemption contained in paragraph (c)(3) or the last sentence of paragraph (a)(3) of Rule 10A-3 under the Exchange Act (“Rule 10A-3”).
Paragraph (b)(iv)(A)(2) of Rule 10A-3 permits a minority of the members of a listed issuer’s audit committee to be exempt from the independence requirements under Rule 10A-3 for a period of one year from the date of effectiveness of such issuer’s initial registration statement under Section 12 of the Exchange Act or the registration statement under the Securities Act covering an initial public offering of securities to be listed by such issuer. From the time of the effectiveness of our registration statement on Form 20-F on December 21, 2018 until the election of directors at of our most recent annual general meeting of shareholders held on June 27, 2019, we relied on this exemption with respect to the former membership of one of ourAct.
99
directors on our Audit and Supervisory Committee, which is our “audit committee” for the purposes of Rule 10A-3. Following such election of directors, each of the members of our Audit and Supervisory Committee now satisfy the independence requirements of Rule 10A-3. We do not believe that our reliance on this transitional exemption has materially affected the ability of our Audit and Supervisory Committee to act independently or satisfy any of the other requirements under Rule 10A-3.

Purchases in the above table reflect (1) purchases of shares in relation to stock-based incentive compensation plans and (2) purchases of shares constituting less than one “unit” (100 shares).
We have two stock-based incentive compensation plans for its directors and members of senior management, the Board Incentive Plan (the “BIP”) and the Employee Stock Ownership Plan (the “ESOP”). See “Item 6.B. Directors, Senior Management and Employees-Compensation.” For grants under the BIP, we, through a wholly-owned trust, buy shares of our common stock in the market on the grant date, and use these shares to settle awards. Grants under the ESOP have been settled using shares newly issued by us, although it is possible in the future that we will adopt a similar trust structure for the ESOP.
The wholly-owned trust purchases shares of our common stock using funds transferred to the trust by us (less trust fees and trust expenses) at the market price of the shares during the share purchase period. As the total number of shares therefore fluctuates with the market price of our shares, the total number of shares which may be purchased under the BIP is not given above.
In May 2018, weJune 2019, our general meeting of shareholders approved the transferannual transfers of approximately ¥1.09up to 5.0 billion to the wholly-owned trust and, in the same month, the wholly-owned trust used such funds to purchase 245,800 shares in respect of grants under the BIP. As of the date of this annual report, the transfer of a total of an additional ¥5 billionJPY to the wholly-owned trust for the purpose of purchasing shares of our common stock at the market in order to settle grants under the BIP forduring the three subsequent fiscal years ending March 31, 2022 has been approved by our annual general meeting of shareholders.

Item 16G. Corporate Governance.Governance
Our ADSs have been listed on the NYSE since 2018. NYSE-listed companies are required to comply with corporate governance standards under Section 303A of the NYSE Listed Company Manual. However, as a foreign private issuer, we are permitted to follow home country practices in lieu of certain provisions of Section 303A. Below, we provide a brief description of significant differences between the NYSE listing standards applicable to U.S. domestic issuers and our corporate governance policies pursuant to 303A.11 of the NYSE Listed Company Manual.
Composition of the Board (303A.01)
Under the NYSE listing standards, U.S. domestic issuers are required to have a majority of directors meeting the independence tests set forth in the NYSE listed company manual.
Takeda is a “company with audit and supervisory committee” as defined in the Companies Act. Companies with audit and supervisory committees are not required to have a majority of independent directors. Such companies must have a board of directors as well as an audit and supervisory committee consisting of at least three of its directors. A majority of the members of the audit and supervisory committee must be “external directors” as defined under the Companies Act, which differs from the director independence standards under the NYSE listed company manual. Additionally, under the regulations of the Tokyo Stock Exchange, we are required to have at least one director who is “independent” for the purposes of such regulations, which are more stringent than the requirements for “external directors” under the Companies Act.
Our board of directors consists of 16 directors, of which 11 are “external directors” under the Companies Act. Our Audit and Supervisory Committee is comprised of four of our directors, three of whom qualify as “external directors” under this standard. Each of our external directors also qualifies as “independent” as described under “Director Independence (303A.02)” below, and each of the members of our Audit and Supervisory Committee qualifies as “independent” for purposes of Rule 10A-3 under the Exchange Act.
Directors who are Audit and Supervisory Committee members are elected separately from our other directors. The term of office for a director who is an Audit and Supervisory Committee member is two years, whereas the term of office for other directors is one year.
Director Independence (303A.02)
We deem a director as being an “independent director” when such director also meets independence requirements stipulated in the regulations of the Tokyo Stock Exchange, on which our common stock is listed, and independence requirements established internally. These requirements differ in certain respects from the requirements under the NYSE listed company manual.
Executive Sessions (303A.03)
The NYSE listed company manual requires that non-management directors of U.S. domestic issuers meet in regularly scheduled executive sessions without management. Although not required under Japanese law or Tokyo Stock Exchange rule, our independent external directors hold regularly scheduled executive sessions without management.
Composition of Committees (303A.04, 05, 06 and 07)
The NYSE listed company manual requires that U.S. domestic issuers establish a nomination/corporate governance committee and a compensation committee, each of which much be composed entirely of independent directors. The NYSE listed company manual also requires that all listed companies, including a foreign private issuer (as defined in the Exchange Act) such as us, establish an audit committee satisfying the requirements of Rule 10A-3 under the Exchange Act. Audit committees of U.S. domestic issuers are also subject to certain additional requirements under Section 303A.07 of the NYSE listed company manual.
Although the Companies Act does not require companies with audit and supervisory committees to establish nomination committees or compensation committees, we have established such committees in order to ensure transparency. Our nomination committeeNomination Committee consists of fourfive directors (of(all of which three are independent external directors for the purposes of Japanese law and the rules of the Tokyo Stock Exchange). plus one director as an observer who is not an external director. Director candidates nominated by our nomination committeeNomination Committee must be approved at our general meeting of shareholders. Unlike the nomination/corporate governance committees of U.S. domestic issuers, our nomination committeeNomination Committee is not also responsible for corporate governance policies.
Our compensation committeeCompensation Committee consists of threefour directors (of(all of which two are independent external directors for the purposes of Japanese law and the rules of the Tokyo Stock Exchange). The maximum total amount of compensation for our directors must be approved at our general meeting of shareholders, provided that the maximum total amounts for directors who are Audit and Supervisory Committee members and for other directors must be separately approved. The individual amounts of compensation for our directors (other than Audit and Supervisory Committee members) is determined in accordance with the compensation standards determined by our board of directors or a resolution of our board of directors. The individual amounts of compensation for our Audit and Supervisory Committee members are determined by discussion among the Audit and Supervisory Committee members.
Our Audit and Supervisory Committee consists of four directors (of which, three are independent external directors for the purposes of Japanese law and the rules of the Tokyo Stock Exchange), and all of whom currently satisfy the independence requirements of Rule 10A-3 under the Exchange Act. Our Audit and Supervisory Committee does not necessarily satisfy all of the additional audit committee requirements applicable to NYSE-listed U.S. domestic companies under Section 303A.07, nor is it required to under the standards applicable to foreign private issuers under Section 303A.
Equity Compensation Plans (303A.08)
U.S. domestic issuers listed on NYSE are required to obtain the approval of shareholders for equity compensation plans and any material changes thereto, subject to certain limited exceptions.
Under Japanese law and the regulations of the Tokyo Stock Exchange, the adoption of an equity compensation plan, including for directors, requires shareholder approval. Pursuant to the approval of our general meeting of shareholders, we grant certain stock-based compensation to the directors. Stock acquisition rights or shares of common stock may be granted by resolution of the board of directors, except that, if stock acquisition rights or shares of common stock are to be granted on particularly favorable conditions, a special resolution of the general meeting of shareholders is required. The passage of a special resolution of the general meeting of shareholders requires the approval of two-thirds or more of the voting rights represented at a quorate general meeting of shareholders.
Corporate Governance Guidelines (303A.09)
U.S. domestic issuers listed on the NYSE must adopt and disclose corporate governance guidelines as set forth in the NYSE listed company manual. Japanese law and the regulations of the Tokyo Stock Exchange require us to disclose our basic views on corporate governance. In accordance with these requirements, we publish our Corporate Governance Report annually, which is posted on our website and furnished to the SEC under cover of Form 6-K, although this may not necessarily cover all of the same items as contemplated by the NYSE listed company manual.
Code of Business Conduct and Ethics (303A.10)
U.S. domestic issuers listed on NYSE are required to adopt and disclose a code of business conduct and ethics for directors, officers and employees, and promptly disclose any waivers of the code for directors or executive officers. Although not required to do so under the NYSE listed company manual, we have established a global code of business conduct and ethics, known as the Takeda Global Code of Conduct, which is posted on our website. Although the Takeda Global Code of Conduct functions as a code of business conduct and ethics, it is not required to cover all of the same areas as that of a U.S. domestic issuer under the NYSE listed company manual. Pursuant to the requirements of Form 20-F, waivers, if any, to the Takeda Global Code of Conduct given to our directors or senior management are disclosed by us in our annual reports on Form 20-F.

Takeda Pharmaceutical Company Limited:
Opinion on the Consolidated Financial Statements
We have audited the accompanying consolidated statements of financial position of Takeda Pharmaceutical Company Limited and subsidiaries (the “Company”) as of March 31, 20192020 and 2018,2019, the related consolidated statements of income,profit or loss, profit or loss and other comprehensive income, changes in equity, and cash flows for each of the years in the three‑yearthree-year period ended March 31, 2019,2020, and the related notes (collectively, the consolidated financial statements). In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of March 31, 20192020 and 2018,2019, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the years in the three‑year period ended March 31, 2019,2020, in conformity with International Financial Reporting Standards as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board.
We also have audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB), the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as of March 31, 2020, based on criteria established in Internal Control - Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission, and our report dated June 24, 2020 expressed an unqualified opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.
Basis for Opinion
These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB)PCAOB and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the consolidated financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the consolidated financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the consolidated financial statements. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
Critical Audit Matters
The critical audit matters communicated below are matters arising from the current period audit of the consolidated financial statements that were communicated or required to be communicated to the audit committee and that: (1) relate to accounts or disclosures that are material to the consolidated financial statements and (2) involved our especially challenging, subjective, or complex judgments. The communication of critical audit matters does not alter in any way our opinion on the consolidated financial statements, taken as a whole, and we are not, by communicating the critical audit matters below, providing separate opinions on the critical audit matters or on the accounts or disclosures to which they relate.
Evaluation of the provisions for U.S. Medicaid, U.S. Medicare and U.S. commercial managed care rebates
As discussed in Note 3 and 23 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company records provisions for contractual and statutory rebates payable under Commercial healthcare provider contracts and U.S. state and Federal government health programs (collectively, U.S. rebates), such as U.S. Medicaid and U.S. Medicare as well as U.S. commercial managed care programs as a reduction to gross sales to arrive at net sales. Provisions for U.S. rebates are 213,189 million JPY as of March 31, 2020. The provisions for U.S. rebates are recorded in the same period that the corresponding revenues are recognized; however, the U.S. rebates are not fully paid until subsequent periods.
We identified the evaluation of the provisions for U.S. Medicaid, U.S. Medicare and U.S. commercial managed care programs as a critical audit matter because evaluating the expected product specific assumptions used to estimate the provisions for the U.S. Medicaid, U.S. Medicare and U.S. commercial managed care programs required a high degree of subjective auditor judgment. The expected product specific assumptions relate to estimating which of the Company’s revenue transactions will ultimately be subject to the U.S. Medicaid, U.S. Medicare and U.S. commercial managed care programs.
The primary procedures we performed to address this critical audit matter included the following. We tested certain internal controls over the Company’s U.S. Medicaid, U.S. Medicare and U.S. commercial managed care programs provision process, including controls related to the determination of the expected product specific assumptions used to estimate the provisions for U.S. Medicaid, U.S. Medicare and U.S. commercial managed care programs. We developed independent expectations of U.S. Medicaid, U.S. Medicare and U.S. commercial managed care programs provisions based on the ratios of historical U.S. Medicaid, U.S. Medicare and U.S. commercial managed care programs claims paid to historical gross sales and compared such independent estimates to management’s estimates. We compared a selection of U.S. Medicaid, U.S. Medicare and U.S. commercial managed care programs claims paid by the Company for consistency with the contractual terms of the Company’s rebate agreements. We evaluated the Company’s ability to accurately estimate the provisions for U.S. Medicaid, U.S. Medicare and U.S. commercial managed care programs by comparing historically recorded provisions to the actual amounts that were ultimately paid by the Company.
Evaluation of acquisition-date fair value of intangible assets associated with marketed products acquired in the Shire business acquisition
As discussed in Note 31 to the consolidated financial statements, on January 8, 2019, the Company completed the acquisition of 100% of the outstanding shares of Shire plc (Shire). During the year ended March 31, 2020, the Company completed the purchase price allocation and retrospectively adjusted the provisional amounts recognized at the acquisition date to reflect new information obtained about the facts and circumstances that existed as of the acquisition date. As a result, the intangible assets were retrospectively adjusted from the provisional fair value of 3,899,298 million JPY to the final fair value of 3,769,076 million JPY.
We identified the evaluation of acquisition-date fair value of certain intangible assets associated with marketed products acquired in the Shire business acquisition as a critical audit matter. The future sales forecast is one of the assumptions used in estimating the fair values of these intangibles and the testing of this assumption involved a high degree of subjective auditor judgement.
The primary procedures we performed to address this critical audit matter included the following. We tested certain internal controls over the Company’s fair value measurement process related to certain intangibles associated with marketed products acquired in the Shire acquisition. We evaluated the Company’s ability to estimate the future sales forecast by comparing the forecasted sales to actual sales. We evaluated the Company’s future sales forecast by comparing the future sales forecasts to the external information such as analysts’ expectations, industry trends and market trends.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
To the Shareholders and Board of Directors
Takeda Pharmaceutical Company Limited:
Opinion on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
We have audited Takeda Pharmaceutical Company Limited and subsidiaries’ (the “Company”) internal control over financial reporting as of March 31, 2020, based on criteria established in Internal Control - Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission. In our opinion, the Company maintained, in all material respects, effective internal control over financial reporting as of March 31, 2020, based on criteria established in Internal Control - Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission.
We also have audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB), the consolidated statements of financial position of the Company as of March 31, 2020 and 2019, the related consolidated statements of profit or loss, profit or loss and other comprehensive income, changes in equity, and cash flows for each of the years in the three-year period ended March 31, 2020, and the related notes (collectively, the consolidated financial statements), and our report dated June 24, 2020 expressed an unqualified opinion on those consolidated financial statements.
Basis for Opinion
The Company’s management is responsible for maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting and for its assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting, included in the accompanying Management’s Annual Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s internal control over financial reporting based on our audit. We are a public accounting firm registered with the PCAOB and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.
We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether effective internal control over financial reporting was maintained in all material respects. Our audit of internal control over financial reporting included obtaining an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, assessing the risk that a material weakness exists, and testing and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of internal control based on the assessed risk. Our audit also included performing such other procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.
Definition and Limitations of Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
A company’s internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. A company’s internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (1) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company; (2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company; and (3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the company’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.
Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

Shire was a leading global biotechnology company focused on serving people with, rare diseases, Plasma-Derived Therapies (“PDT”), oncology, and other highly specialized conditions.neuroscience.
2. Basis of Preparation
Compliance with International Financial Reporting Standards
Takeda’s consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards ("IFRS"(“IFRS”), as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (“IASB”). The term IFRS also includes International Accounting Standards (“IASs”) and the related interpretations of the interpretationsinterpretation’s committees ("SIC"(Standard Interpretations Committee (“SIC”) and "IFRIC"International Financial Reporting Interpretations Committee (“IFRIC”)).
Approval of Financial Statements
The Company'sCompany’s consolidated financial statements as of and for the year ended March 31, 2019presented were approved on June 27, 201924, 2020 by Representative Director, President & Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”) Christophe Weber and Director & Chief Financial Officer ("CFO"(“CFO”) Costa Saroukos.
Basis of Measurement
The consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a historical cost basis, except for certain assets and liabilities recorded at fair value including investments, derivatives, and contingent considerations.
Functional and Presentation Currency
The consolidated financial statements are presented in Japanese Yen ("JPY"(“JPY”),which is the functional currency of the Company. All financial information presented in JPY has been rounded to the nearest million JPY, except when otherwise indicated.
New Accounting Standards and Interpretations Adopted
During the year ended March 31, 2019,2020, Takeda has adopted the following new accounting standards:
IFRS 9 Financial instruments (“IFRS 9”)
IFRS 9 was issued in its final form in July 2014 and has been implemented by Takeda as of April 1, 2018. IFRS 9 replaces the majority of the requirements of IAS 39 ‘Financial Instruments: Recognition and Measurement’ (“IAS 39”) and covers the recognition, classification, measurement and de-recognition of financial assets and financial liabilities; introduces a new impairment model for financial assets based on expected losses rather than incurred losses and provides a new hedge accounting model. The principal impact for Takeda was the re-measurement of certain available-for-sale financial instruments to fair value on initial application on April 1, 2018.
Takeda applied IFRS 9 with respect to classification and measurement (including impairment) without restating previous years, with the exception of hedge accounting impacts which generally have been applied prospectively. The cumulative effects of initially applying IFRS 9 were recognized in equity as of the date of initial application of IFRS 9 (April 1, 2018). As a result of the adoption on the date of initial application, the opening balance of retained earnings and other components of equity increased by 14,073 million JPY and 10,257 million JPY, respectively, while other financial assets (non-current), other financial assets (current), and deferred tax liabilities increased by 32,809 million JPY, 856 million JPY and 9,345 million JPY, respectively, and non-controlling interests decreasing by 10 million JPY. Comparative period presented for 2017 and 2018 has not been updated as a result of the adoption of IFRS 9, with the exception of hedge accounting impacts. See Note 3 for further details on the accounting policy under IAS 39 and IFRS 9.
Takeda elected to designate irrevocably all of its equity instruments as financial assets measured at fair value through other comprehensive income (FVTOCI). This designation has been made based on the Company’s intent to hold these investments for the foreseeable future. Changes in the fair
value of financial assets at FVTOCI are recognized in other comprehensive income, and the cumulative amount of the other comprehensive income is transferred to retained earnings when the instruments are derecognized due to liquidation or sale.
The classification of other financial assets under IFRS 9 is generally based on the business model in which a financial asset is managed and its contractual cash flow characteristics. The determination of the business model has been made based on the facts and circumstances that existed at the date of initial application.
The impairment of financial assets measured at amortized cost is assessed using an expected credit loss (ECL) model where previously the incurred loss model was used. There was no significant impact on the impairment of receivables upon the adoption of the new standard.
Takeda has not designated any financial liabilities as at fair value through profit or loss. There are no changes in classification and measurement for Takeda’s financial liabilities following the adoption of IFRS 9.
The adoption of IFRS 9 has not had a material impact on Takeda’s financial liabilities and derivatives.
The new hedge accounting model introduced by the standard requires hedge accounting relationships to be based upon Takeda’s own risk management objectives and strategy, and to apply a more qualitative and forward-looking approach to assessing hedge effectiveness. The model is to be discontinued only when the hedging relationships no longer qualify for hedge accounting. All hedging relationships designated under IAS 39 as of March 31, 2018 met the criteria for hedge accounting under IFRS 9 as of April 1, 2018, and are therefore regarded as continuing hedging relationships.
In addition, under IAS 39, the currency basis spread was included in cash flow hedges under other component of equity. Under IFRS 9, this basis spread and time value of the currency options are separately accounted for and presented as hedging cost under other component of equity. The hedge accounting impacts from IFRS 9 are generally applied prospectively, with the exception of certain aspects being treated retrospectively. Takeda retrospectively applied the accounting treatment of hedging cost and adjusted the comparative information. The amounts retrospectively recorded as hedging cost resulted in a 222 million JPY increase to and a 1,606 million JPY deduction from cash flow hedge reserves as of March 31, 2017 and 2018, respectively.

IFRS 15 Revenue from Contracts with Customers (“IFRS 15”)
Takeda adopted IFRS 15 on April 1, 2018. The new standard provides a single, principles-based approach to the recognition of revenue from all contracts with customers. The standard focuses on the identification of performance obligations in a contract and requires revenue to be recognized when or as those performance obligations are satisfied. The standard also has more detailed disclosure requirements. IFRS 15 did not have a material impact on the amount or timing of recognition of revenue.
The amount and timing of the recognition of sales and the basis for the estimates of sales deductions generally remained consistent as it relates to revenue derived from the sale of pharmaceutical products.
The previous revenue recognition for considerations received related to revenue received from out-licensing agreements required the transfer of ownership and related royalty income to be recognized on an accrual basis in accordance with the substance of the agreement as remaining performance obligations. The basis of allocation to the transfer of ownership and an allocation of revenue over the remaining performance obligations, and therefore timing of recognition for consideration received, has changed as a result of adoption. The impact of this change is not material.
Takeda elected the modified retrospective method upon adoption of IFRS 15, which requires the recognition of the cumulative effect of initially applying IFRS 15 in opening equity at the date of initial application. As a result of the adoption of IFRS 15, due to the difference in allocation of revenue to performance obligations for considerations received related to out-licensing agreements, other non-current liabilities, other current liabilities, and deferred tax assets decreased by 1,247 million JPY, 495 million JPY and 414 million JPY respectively, and opening retained earnings increased by 1,328 million JPY.
For the year ended March 31, 2019, the impact from adoption of IFRS 15 on the consolidated financial statements was immaterial compared to the consolidated financial statements under IAS 18.
New Accounting Standards and Interpretations Issued and Not Yet Adopted
New or amended accounting standards and interpretations that have been issued as of the date of approval of the consolidated financial statements but are not effective and have not yet been adopted by Takeda as of March 31, 2019 are discussed below:
IFRS 16 Leases (“IFRS 16”)
Takeda adopted IFRS 16 on April 1, 2019. The standard will requirereplaces IAS 17 Leases (“IAS 17”) and IFRIC 4 Determining whether an Arrangement contains a Lease (“IFRIC 4”) and introduces a single lease accounting model requiring a lessee to recognize lease liabilities and right of use (ROU)right-of-use (“ROU”) assets to be recognized on the balance sheet for almost all leases. Of the costs from operating leases currentlypreviously included within cost of sales, selling, general and administrative expenses, research and development expenses, and other operating expenses, the portion related to the financing element will be reclassifiedis classified and reported as finance expenses. In the statement of cash flow,flows, the lease payments currentlypreviously included within cash outflowsflows from operating activities will beare reported within cash flows from financing activities.
Takeda adopted IFRS 16 is effective for Takedausing the modified retrospective approach and the cumulative effect of adopting the standard was recognized on April 1, 2019.
As a lessee, this standard can be applied retrospectively to each prior reporting period (retrospective approach) or retrospectively with the cumulative effect of initially applying this standard recognized at the date of initial application (modified retrospective approach). Takeda has elected to apply the standard applying the modified retrospective approach. Under the modified retrospective approach, the At transition, lease liabilities will bewere measured at the present value of the remaining lease payments, discounted at the incremental borrowing rate as of April 1, 2019. The ROU assets will bewere recognized at an amount equal to the lease liability,liabilities, adjusted for any prepaid or accrued lease payments, onerous lease provisions and business combination related fair value adjustments.
The adoption of IFRS 16 resulted in the recognition of lease liabilities (included in “Other financial liabilities”) of 217,325 million JPY and ROU assets (included in “Property, plant and equipment”) of 199,256 million JPY, excluding the amount related to leases previously classified as finance leases under IAS 17 in the consolidated statement of financial position as of April 1, 2019. The weighted average incremental borrowing rate applied to the lease liabilities on April 1, 2019 was 2.8%. In the consolidated statement of cash flows, cash outflow of 32,943 million JPY for the year ended March 31, 2020 was presented in “net cash from (used in) financing activities” instead of “net cash from operating activities”. Other impact of applying IFRS 16 to the consolidated financial statements was immaterial.
Takeda elected the following transition practical expedients, to leases previously classified as operating leases under IAS 17:
Applying the recognition exemption for lease contracts for which the term ends within 12 months at the date of initial application
Adjusting the ROU assets by the amount of onerous contract provision recognized under IAS 37 Provisions, Contingent Liabilities and Contingent Assets immediately before the date of initial application, as an alternative to an impairment review
Takeda has also elected not to reassess whether a contract is or contains a lease at the date of initial application. Instead, for contracts entered into before April 1, 2019, Takeda expects to recognize additionalrelied on its assessment made by applying IAS 17 and IFRIC 4.
The differences between Takeda’s operating lease commitments under IAS 17 disclosed in Note 32 and the total lease liabilities recorded in the consolidated statement of approximately 220 billion JPY and corresponding ROU assetsfinancial position as of approximately 200 billion JPY excluding existing finance leases. The additional liabilities and ROU assets include the impact of the operating leases obtained as a result of the Shire Acquisition.April 1, 2019 under IFRS 16 are summarized below:
|
| | |
| JPY (millions) |
| Operating lease commitments as of March 31, 2019 (Note 32) | 233,578 |
|
| Less: Recognition exemption for leases with less than 12 months of lease term at transition | (1,256 | ) |
| Less: Recognition exemption for leases of low value asset | (319 | ) |
| Add: Extension options reasonably certain to be exercised | 20,266 |
|
| Less: Lease contracts with commencement date after March 31, 2019 | (4,394 | ) |
| Less: Discounted using the incremental borrowing rate as of April 1, 2019 | (31,783 | ) |
| Add: Finance lease liabilities recognized as of March 31, 2019 | 179,411 |
|
| Other | 1,233 |
|
| Lease liabilities recognized as of April 1, 2019 | 396,736 |

IFRIC 23 Uncertainty over Income Tax Treatments (“IFRIC 23”)
The interpretationTakeda adopted IFRIC 23, which clarifies that, if it is considered probable that a tax authority will accept an uncertain tax treatment, the tax charge should be calculated on that basis. If it is not considered probable, the effect of the uncertainty should be estimated and reflected in the tax charge. In assessing the uncertainty, it is assumed that the tax authority will have full knowledge of all information related to the matter. IFRIC 23The adoption of the interpretation did not have a material impact on Takeda’s consolidated financial statements.
IFRS 3 Definition of a Business (“IFRS 3”)
In October 2018, IFRS 3 was amended to clarify the definition of a business. This amendment clarified that to be considered a business, an acquired set of activities and assets must include, at a minimum, an input and a substantive process that together significantly contribute to the ability to create outputs. In addition, this amendment added an optional concentration test that permits a simplified assessment of whether an acquired set of activities and assets is not a business. This amendment is effective for Takeda on April 1, 2019.
Other Standards
In addition,2020, but the following amendmentsamendment allows early adoption. Takeda early adopted this amendment and interpretations have been issued:
Amendments to IFRS 10 and IAS 28 ‘Sale or Contribution of Assets between an Investor and its Associate or Joint Venture’. The IASB has deferred these amendments until a date to be determined by the IASB.
Amendments to IFRS 9: Prepayment Features with Negative Compensation
Amendments to IAS 19: Plan Amendment, Curtailment or Settlement
Amendments to IAS 28: Long-term interests in associates and joint ventures
Annual Improvements 2015-2017 Cycle (issued in December 2017) including improvements to IFRS 3 Business Combinations, IFRS 11 Joint Arrangements, IAS 12 Income Taxes and IAS 23 Borrowing Costs
The adoption of the amendments to IFRIC 23amendment did not have a material impact on Takeda’s consolidated financial statements.
New Accounting Standards and these additional amendmentsInterpretations Issued and Not Yet Adopted
There were no new or amended accounting standards and interpretations areissued and not yet adopted that would be expected to have a significant impact on Takeda’s consolidated financial statements. For those amendmentsstandards and interpretations where early adoption is permitted, Takeda does not plan to early adopt.
Use of Judgments, Estimates, and Assumptions
The preparation of consolidated financial statements in accordance with IFRS requires management to make certain judgments, estimates, and assumptions that affect the application of accounting policies and the reported amount of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. Actual results could differ from these estimates.
These estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on a continuous basis. Changes in these accounting estimates are recognized in the period in which the estimates are revised and in any future periods affected.
Information about judgments and estimates that have been made in the process of applying accounting policies and that have significant effects on the amounts reported in the consolidated financial statements, and information about accounting estimates and assumptions that have significant effects on the amounts reported in the consolidated financial statements, are as follows:
Recognition and measurement of taxes based on uncertain tax positions (Note 7)
Recoverability of deferred tax assets (Note 7)
Impairment of property, plant and equipment; goodwill; and other intangible assets (Note 10, Note 11, and Note 12, respectively)
Measurement of fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed and contingent consideration in business combinations (Note 2127 and Note 31)
Measurement of defined benefit obligations (Note 22)
Measurement of provisions, including estimation of rebates and return reserves associated with Takeda’s product sales (Note 23)
Valuation assumptions relating to share-based compensation (Note 28)
Probability of an outflow of resources embodying economic benefits on contingent liabilities (Note 32)
Although the effects of the spread of COVID-19 could potentially impact business activities within Takeda, the overall impact on Takeda’s consolidated financial results has been limited to date. Therefore, the spread of COVID-19 did not have a significant impact on accounting estimates and assumptions used for the preparation of the consolidated financial statements.
3. Significant Accounting Policies
Basis of Consolidation
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its subsidiaries that are directly or indirectly controlled by the Company. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
Takeda controls an entity when it is exposed or has rights to variable returns from involvement with the entity and has the ability to affect those returns using its power, which is the current ability to direct the relevant activities, over the entity. To determine whether Takeda controls an entity, status of voting rights or similar rights, contractual agreements and other specific factors are considered.
The financial statements of the subsidiaries are included in the consolidated financial statements from the date when control is obtained until the date when control is lost. The financial statements of subsidiaries have been adjusted in order to ensure consistency with the accounting policies adopted by the Company as necessary.
Changes in ownership interest in subsidiaries that do not result in loss of control are accounted for as equity transactions. Any difference between the adjustment to non-controlling interests and the fair value of consideration transferred or received, is recognized directly in equity attributable to owners of the Company. When control over a subsidiary is lost, the investment retained after the loss of control is re-measured at fair value as of the date when control is lost, and any gain or loss on such re-measurement and disposal of the interest sold is recognized in profit or loss.
Investments in Associates and Joint Arrangements
Associates are entities over which Takeda has significant influence over the decisions on financial and operating policies but does not have control or joint control. Investments in associates are accounted for using the equity method and recognized at cost on the acquisition date. The carrying amount is subsequently increased or decreased to recognize Takeda’s share of profit or loss and other comprehensive income of the affiliate.associates. Intra-group profits on transactions with associates accounted for using the equity method are eliminated against the investment to the extent of Takeda’s equity interest in the associates. Intra-group losses are eliminated in the same way as intra-group profits unless there is evidence of impairment.
Joint arrangement is an arrangement of which two or more parties have joint control. Joint control is the contractually agreed sharing of control of an arrangement, which exists only when decisions about the relevant activities require the unanimous consent of the parties sharing control. Takeda classifies joint arrangement into either joint operations or joint ventures. The classification of a joint arrangement as a joint operation or a joint venture depends upon the rights and obligations of the parties to the arrangement. Joint operation is a joint arrangement whereby the parties that have joint control of the arrangement have rights to the assets, and obligations for the liabilities, relating to the arrangement. Joint venture is a joint arrangement whereby the parties that have joint control of the arrangement have rights to the net assets of the arrangement. The assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses in joint operations are recognized in relation to Takeda’s interest. The investment in joint ventures is accounted for using the equity method. At each reporting date, the Company determines whether there is objective evidence that the investment in the associate or joint venture is impaired. If there is such evidence, the Company calculates the amount of impairment as the difference between the recoverable amount of the associate or joint venture and its carrying value, and then recognizes the loss withinin profit or loss.
Business Combinations
Business combinations are accounted for using the acquisition method. The identifiable assets acquired and the liabilities assumed are measured at the fair values at the acquisition date. Goodwill is measured as the excess of the sum of the fair value of consideration transferred, the amount of any non-controlling interests in the acquiree and the fair value of the acquirer'sacquirer’s previously held equity interest in the acquiree less the fair value of identifiable assets acquired, net of liabilities assumed at the acquisition date. As part of business combinations, when the acquired entity consists of foreign operations with multiple functional currencies, Takeda allocates goodwill recognized upon the acquisition to the foreign operations based on the estimated cash flows of the acquired foreign operations.
The consideration transferred for the acquisition of a subsidiary is measured as the fair value of the assets transferred, the liabilities incurred to former owners of the acquiree, and the equity interests issued by Takeda.Takeda at the acquisition date. Non-controlling interests is initially measured either at fair value or at the non-controlling interests’ proportionate share of the recognized amounts of the acquiree’s identifiable net assets on a transaction-by-transaction basis. The consideration for certain acquisitions includes amounts contingent upon future events, such as the achievement of development milestones and sales targets.
Any contingent consideration included in the consideration payable for a business combination is recorded at fair value at the date of acquisition. These fair values are generally based on risk-adjusted future cash flows discounted using appropriate discount rates. The fair values are reviewed at the end of each reporting period. The changes in the fair value based on the time value of money are recognized in finance expenses and the other changes are recognized in other operating income or other operating expenses in the consolidated statements of income.profit or loss.
Acquisition related costs are recognized as expenses in the period they are incurred. Changes in Takeda’s ownership interests in subsidiaries arising from transactions between Takeda and non-controlling interests that do not result in Takeda losing control over a subsidiary are treated as equity transactions and therefore, do not result in adjustments to goodwill.
Foreign Currency Translations
Foreign Currency Transactions
Foreign currency transactions are translatedremeasured into the functional currency of each entity within Takeda using the exchange rates at the dates of the transactions or rates that approximate the exchange rates at the dates of the transactions. Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translatedremeasured into the functional currency using the spot rates of exchange at the end of each reporting period. Non-monetary assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value in foreign currencies are translatedremeasured using historical exchange rates at the date when the fair value was determined. Non-monetary assets and liabilities measured based on historical cost that are denominated in foreign currencies are translatedremeasured at the exchange rate at the date of the initial transaction. Exchange differences arising from the translationremeasurement or settlement are recognized in profit or loss except when related to financial assets measured at fair value through other comprehensive income, as well as financial instruments designated as hedges of net investments in foreign operations and cash flow hedges subsequently recognized as other comprehensive income. The gain or loss arising from translationremeasurement of non-monetary items measured at fair value is treated in line with the recognition of the gain or loss on the change in fair value of the item (i.e., translation differences on items whose fair value gain or loss is recognized in other comprehensive income or profit or loss, are also recognized in other comprehensive income or profit or loss, respectively).
Foreign Operations
The assets and liabilities of foreign operations are translated using the spot exchange rates at the end of the reporting period, while income and expenses of foreign operations presented in profit or loss and other comprehensive income are translated using the exchange rates at the dates of the transactions or rates that approximate the exchange rates at the dates of the transactions.
Exchange differences arising from translation are recognized as other comprehensive income. In cases in which foreign operations are disposed of, the cumulative amount of exchange differences related to the foreign operations is recognized as part of the gain or loss on disposal.
Revenue
Revenue on salesTakeda’s revenue is primarily related to the sale of Takedapharmaceutical products and services is generally recognized when control of the products is passed to the customer in an amount that reflects the consideration to which weTakeda expect to be entitled in exchange for those products. Control is generally transferred at the point in time of shipment to or receipt of the products by customer, or when the services are performed. The amount of revenue to be recognized is based on the consideration Takeda expects to receive in exchange for its goods and services. If a contract contains more than one contractual promise to a customer (performance obligation), the consideration is allocated based on the standalone selling price of each performance obligation.
The consideration Takeda receives in exchange for its goods or services may be fixed or variable. Variable consideration is only recognized when it is highly probable that a significant reversal will not occur. The most common elements
Takeda’s gross sales are subject to various deductions, which are primarily composed of variable consideration are listed below:
Rebatesrebates and discounts granted to retail customers, government agencies, wholesalers, retail pharmacies,health insurance companies and managed healthcare organizations. These deductions represent estimates of the related obligations, requiring the use of judgement when estimating the effect of these sales deductions on gross sales for a reporting period. These adjustments are deducted from gross sales to arrive at net sales. Takeda monitors the obligation for these deductions on at least a quarterly basis and record adjustments when rebate trends, rebate programs and contract terms, legislative changes, or other significant events indicate that a change in the obligation is appropriate. Historically, adjustments to rebate accruals have not been material to net earnings. The United States (the “U.S.”) market has the most complex arrangements related to revenue deductions.
The following summarizes the nature of the most significant adjustments to revenue:
U.S. Medicaid: The U.S. Medicaid Drug Rebate Program is administered by state governments using state and federal funds to provide assistance to certain qualifying individuals and families, who cannot finance their own medical expenses. Calculating the rebates to be paid related to this program involves interpreting relevant regulations, which are subject to challenge or change in interpretative guidance by government authorities. Provisions for Medicaid rebates are estimated based upon identifying the products subject to a rebate, historical experience, patient demand, product pricing and the mix of contracts and specific terms in the individual state agreements. The provisions for Medicaid rebates are recorded in the same period that the corresponding revenues are recognized; however, the Medicaid rebates are not fully paid until subsequent periods. There is often a time lag of several months between Takeda recording the revenue deductions and Takeda’s final accounting for Medicaid rebates. These expected product specific assumptions relate to estimating which of the Takeda’s revenue transactions will ultimately be subject to the U.S. Medicaid program.
U.S. Medicare: The U.S. Federal Medicare Program, which funds healthcare benefits to individuals age 65 or older and certain disabilities, provides prescription drug benefits under Part D section of the program. This benefit is provided and administrated through private prescription drug plans. Provisions for Medicare Part D rebates are calculated based on the terms of individual plan agreements, patient demand, product
pricing and the mix of contracts. The provisions for Medicare Part D rebates are recorded in the same period that the corresponding revenues are recognized; however, the Medicare Part D rebates are not fully paid until subsequent periods. There is often a time lag of several months between Takeda recording the revenue deductions and Takeda’s final accounting for Medicare Part D rebates. These expected product specific assumptions relate to estimating which of the Takeda’s revenue transactions will ultimately be subject to the U.S. Medicare program.
Customer rebates: Customer rebates including commercial managed care in the U.S. are offered to purchasing organizations, health insurance companies, managed healthcare organizations, and other direct and indirect customers to sustain and increase market share, and to ensure patient access to Takeda’s products. Since rebates are contractually agreed upon, the related provisions are estimated based on the terms of the individual agreements, historical experience, and patient demand. The provisions for commercial managed care rebates in the U.S. are recorded in the same period that the corresponding revenues are recognized; however, commercial managed care rebates in the U.S. are not fully paid until subsequent periods. There is often a time lag of several months between Takeda recording the revenue deductions and Takeda’s final accounting for commercial managed care rebates in the U.S. These expected product specific assumptions relate to estimating which of the Takeda’s revenue transactions will ultimately be subject to the commercial managed care in the U.S.
Wholesaler chargebacks: Takeda has arrangements with certain indirect customers whereby the customer is able to buy products from wholesalers at reduced prices. A chargeback represents the difference between the invoice price to the wholesaler and the indirect customer’s contractual discounted price. Provisions for estimating chargebacks are calculated based on the terms of each agreement, historical experience and product demand. Takeda has a legally enforceable right to set off the trade receivables and chargebacks and it intends either to settle them on a net basis or to realize the asset and settle the liability simultaneously. Thus the provision for chargebacks are recorded as a deduction from revenue at the time the related revenues are recorded. They are calculatedtrade receivables on the basisconsolidated statements of historical experience and the specific terms in the individual agreements.financial position.
Cash discounts are offered to customers and are provisioned and recorded as revenue deductions at the time the related sales are recorded.
Sales return provisions are recognized whenReturn reserves: When Takeda sells a product which providesproviding a customer the customerright to return it, we record a rightprovision for estimated sales returns based on our sales return policy and historical return rates. We estimate the proportion of return. Salesrecorded revenue that will result in a return provisions are recorded as revenue deductions when there is historical experience of Takeda agreeing to customerby considering relevant factors, including past product returns and Takeda can reasonably estimate expected future returns. In doing so,activity, the estimated ratelevel of return is applied, determined based on historical experienceinventory in the distribution channel and the shelf life of customer returns and considering any other relevant factors. The rate is multiplied byproducts.
Because the amounts invoiced in orderare estimated, they may not fully reflect the final outcome, and the amounts are subject to estimate expected future returns.change dependent upon, amongst other things, the type of purchasing organization, end consumer, and product sales mix.
Takeda generally receives payments from customers within 12090 days after the point in time when goods are delivered to the customers. Takeda usually performs those transactions as a principal, but Takeda also sells products on behalf of others andin which case revenue is recognized at an amount of sales commission that Takeda expects to be entitled as an agent.
Takeda also generates revenue in the form of royalty payments, upfront payments, and milestone payments from the out-licensing of intellectual property (IP)(“IP”). Royalty revenue earned through a license is recognized when the underlying sales have occurred. Revenue from upfront payment is generally recognized when Takeda provides a right to use IP. Revenue from milestone payments is recognized at the point in time when it is highly probable that the respective milestone event criteria is met, and a significant reversal in the amount of revenue recognized will not occur. Revenue from other services such as research and developmentR&D of compounds that are out-licensed is recognized over the service period.
Takeda generally receives payments from customers within 60 days after entering into out-licensing contracts or confirmation by customers that conditions for the milestone payments are met. Takeda licenses its own intellectual property rights to customers and performedperforms those transactions as a principal. Takeda also provides other services as a principal.
Government Grants
Government grants are recognized when there is reasonable assurance that Takeda will comply with the conditions attached to them and receive the grants. Government grants for the purchasing of property, plant and equipment are recognized as deferred income and then recognized as profit or loss and offset the related expenses on a systematic basis over the useful lives of the related assets.
Government grants for expenses incurred are recognized as profit or loss and offset the related expenses over the periods in which Takeda recognizes costs for which the grants are intended to compensate.
Advertising and Sales Promotion Expenses
Costs of advertising and sales promotion are expensed as incurred. Advertising and sales promotion expense was 112,842 million JPY, 115,708 million JPY, 106,755 million JPY, and 106,755121,340 million JPY for the years ended March 31, 2017, 2018, 2019 and 2019,2020, respectively.
Research and Development Expenses
Research costs are expensed in the period incurred. Internal development expenditures are capitalized when the criteria for recognizing an asset are met in accordance with IAS 38 ‘IntangibleIntangible Assets’, usually when a regulatory filing has been made in a major market and approval is considered highly probable. Where regulatory and other uncertainties are such that the criteria are not met, the expenditures are recognized in profit or loss in the income statement.consolidated statements of profit or loss. Property, plant and equipment used for research and developmentR&D is capitalized and depreciated over the estimated life of the asset.
Income Taxes
Income taxes consist of current taxes and deferred taxes. Current and deferred taxes are recognized in profit or loss, except for income taxes resulting from business combinations, and income taxes recognized in either other comprehensive income or equity related to items that are recognized, in the same or different period, outside of profit or loss.
CurrentCurrent Taxes
The current taxtaxes payable or receivable is based on taxable profit for the year. Taxable profit differs from reported profit because taxable profit excludes items that are either never taxable or tax deductible or items that are taxable or tax deductible in a different period. AccruedIncome taxes payable and income taxes and income tax receivable, including those from prior fiscal years, are measured at the amount that is expected to be paid to or received from the taxation authorities, reasonably reflecting uncertainty related to income taxes, if any. Takeda’s current taxes also include liabilities related to uncertain tax positions. Takeda’s current tax assets and liabilities are calculated using tax rates that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the reporting date.
Deferred Taxes
Deferred taxes are calculated based on the temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the amounts used for taxation purposes at the end of the reporting period. Deferred tax assets are recognized for deductible temporary differences, unused tax credits and unused tax losses to the extent that it is probable that future taxable profit will be available against which the assets can be utilized. This requires usTakeda to evaluate and assess the probability of future taxable profit and ourTakeda’s business plan, which are inherently uncertain. Uncertainty of estimates of future taxable profit could increase due to changes in economies in which we operate,Takeda operates, changes in market conditions, effects of currency fluctuations, or other factors. Takeda’s deferred taxes also include liabilities related to uncertain tax positions. Deferred tax liabilities are generally recognized for taxable temporary differences.
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are not recognized for the following temporary differences:
Taxable temporary differences arising on the initial recognition of goodwill
The initial recognition of assets and liabilities in transactions that are not business combinations and affect neither accounting profit nor taxable profit (loss) at the time of the transaction
Deductible temporary differences arising from investments in subsidiaries and associates, when it is not probable that the temporary differences will reverse in the foreseeable future and that taxable profit will be available against which the temporary differences can be utilized
Taxable temporary differences arising from investments in subsidiaries and associates when the timing of the reversal of the temporary differences is controllable and it is not probable that they will reverse in the foreseeable future
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured at the tax rates that are expected to apply to the periods in which the temporary differences are expected to reverse based on the tax rates and tax laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the end of the reporting period. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are offset when there is a legally enforceable right to offset current tax assets against current tax liabilities and the deferred tax assets and liabilities for those related to income taxes levied by the same taxation authority on the same taxable entity.

Basic earnings per share is calculated by dividing profit or loss for the year attributable to owners of ordinary shares of the Company, by the weighted-average number of ordinary shares outstanding during the reporting period, adjusted by the number of treasury shares. Diluted earnings per share is calculated by adjusting all the effects of dilutive potential ordinary shares.
Property, Plant and Equipment
Property, plant and equipment are measured using the cost model and is stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment loss. Acquisition cost includes mainly the costs directly attributable to the acquisition and the initial estimated dismantlement, removal, and restoration costs associated with the asset. Except for assets that are not subject to depreciation, such as land and construction in progress, assets are depreciated mainly using the straight-line method over the estimated useful life of the asset. LeasedROU assets are depreciated using the straight-line method over the shorter of the lease term or the estimated useful life unless it is reasonably certain that Takeda will obtain ownership by the end of the lease term. The depreciation of these assets begins when they are available for use.
The estimated useful life of major asset items is as follows:
Buildings and structures 3 to 50 years
Machinery and vehicles 2 to 20 years
Tools, furniture and fixtures 2 to 20 years
Goodwill
Goodwill arising from business combinations is stated at its cost less accumulated impairment losses. Goodwill is not amortized. Goodwill is allocated to cash-generating units or groups of cash-generating units based on expected synergies and tested for impairment annually or whenever
there is any indication of impairment. Impairment losses on goodwill are recognized in the consolidated statements of incomeprofit or loss and no subsequent reversal will be made.
Intangible Assets Associated with Products
Marketed Products
An intangible asset associated with a marketed product is amortized on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful life, which is based on expected exclusivity period, ranging from 3 to 20 years. Amortization of intangible assets is included in amortization and impairment losses on intangible assets associated with products in the consolidated statements of income.profit or loss. Amortization and impairment losses on intangible assets associated with products is separately stated in the consolidated statementstatements of incomeprofit or loss because intangible assets associated with products have various comprehensive rights and contribute to our ability to sell, manufacture, research, market and distribute products, compounds and benefit multiple business functions.
In-Process R&D
Takeda regularly enters into collaboration and in-license agreements with third parties for products and compounds for research and developmentR&D projects. Payments for collaboration agreements generally take the form of subsequent development milestone payments. Payments for in-license agreements generally take the form of up-front payments and subsequent development milestone payments.
Up-front payments for in-license agreements are capitalized upon commencement of the in-license agreements, and development milestone payments are capitalized when the milestone is triggered.
These intangible assets relating to products in development that are not yet available for use are not amortized. These intangible assets are assessed for impairment on an annual basis, or more frequently if indicators of a potential impairment exist. An impairment is recorded if the carrying value exceeds the recoverable amount of the intangible assets. Intangible assets relating to products which fail during development or for which development ceases for any reason are written down to their recoverable amount which is typically nil.
If and when Takeda obtains approval for the commercial application of a product in development, the related in-process research and developmentR&D assets will be reclassified to intangible assets associated with marketed products and amortized over its estimated useful life from marketing approval.
Intangible Assets – Software
Software is recognized at cost and amortized on a straight-line basis over the expected useful life. The useful life used for this purpose is 3 to 10 years. Amortization of intangible assets – software is included in cost of sales, selling, general and administrative expenses, and research and development expenses in the consolidated statements of income.profit or loss.
Leases
Subsequent to April 1, 2019
As Lessee
Takeda assesses whether a contract is or contains a lease at inception of a contract. As a lessee, Takeda recognizes a ROU asset and a corresponding lease liability for all contracts in which it is a lessee in the consolidated statements of financial position at the lease commencement date.
The ROU asset is initially measured at cost, being the initial amount of the lease liability adjusted for any lease payments made at or before the lease commencement date and subsequently at cost less any accumulated depreciation and impairment losses. The ROU asset is subsequently depreciated using the straight-line method over the shorter of the lease term or the estimated useful life of the underlying asset. The ROU asset is subject to impairment assessment.
The lease liability is initially measured at the present value of the lease payments that are not paid at the commencement date, discounted using the interest rate implicit in the lease or, if not readily determinable, the Takeda’s incremental borrowing rate.
Generally, Takeda uses its incremental borrowing rate as the discount rate. The lease term comprises a non-cancellable period of lease contracts and periods covered by an option to extend or terminate the lease if Takeda is reasonably certain to exercise that option. After initial recognition, the lease liability is measured at amortized cost using the effective interest method. If there is a change in future lease payments, such as from reassessment of whether an extension or termination option will be exercised, the lease liability is remeasured. A corresponding adjustment is made to the ROU asset or is recorded in the consolidated statements of profit or loss when the right-of-use asset has been fully depreciated.
Takeda has elected to apply recognition exemption for leases that have a lease term of 12 months or less and leases of low-value assets. The lease payments for such leases are recognized as an expense on a straight-line basis over the lease term.
As a practical expedient, Takeda has elected not to separate non-lease components from lease components, and instead accounts for each lease component and any associated non-lease components as a single lease component.
Prior to April 1, 2019
Leases are classified as finance leases if substantially all the risks and rewards incidental to ownership are transferred to the lessee. Leases other than finance leases are classified as operating leases.
As Lessee
At the commencement of the lease term, Takeda recognizesrecognized finance leases as assets and liabilities in the consolidated statements of financial position at amounts equal to the fair value of the leased property or, if lower, the present value of the minimum lease payments, each determined at the inception of the lease. Lease payments for operating leases are recognized as expenses on a straight-line basis over the lease term, unless another systematic basis is more representative of the time pattern of the user'suser’s benefit is available.
Impairment of Non-Financial Assets
Takeda assesses whether there is any indication of impairment for non-financial assets at the end of each reporting period, excluding inventories, deferred tax assets, assets held for sale, and assets arising from employee benefits.net defined benefit assets. If any such indication exists, or in cases in which an impairment test is required to be performed each year, the recoverable amount of the asset is estimated. In cases in which the recoverable amount cannot be estimated for each asset, they are estimated at the cash-generating unit level. The recoverable amount of an asset or a cash-generating unit is determined at the higher of its fair value less costs of disposal or its value in use. In determining the value in use, the estimated future cash flows are discounted to their present value using a discount rate that reflects the time value of money and the risks specific to the asset. If the carrying amount of the asset or cash-generating unit exceeds the recoverable amount, impairment loss is recognized in profit or loss and the carrying amount is reduced to the recoverable amount. An asset or a cash-generating unit other than goodwill, for which impairment losses were recognized in prior years, is assessed at the end of the reporting period to determine whether there is any indication that the impairment loss recognized in prior periods
may no longer exist or may have decreased. If any such indication exists, the recoverable amount of the asset or cash-generating unit is estimated. In cases in which the recoverable amount exceeds the carrying amount of the asset or cash-generating unit, the impairment loss is reversed up to the lower of the estimated recoverable amount or the carrying amount, net of depreciation and amortization, that would have been determined if no impairment loss had been recognized in prior years. The reversal of impairment loss is immediately recognized in profit or loss.
Inventories
Inventories are measured at the lower of cost andor net realizable value. The cost of inventories is determined mainly using the weighted-average cost formula. The cost of inventories includes purchase costs, costs of conversion, and other costs incurred in bringing the inventories to the present location and condition. Net realizable value is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business less the estimated costs of completion and the estimated costs necessary to make the sale. Pre-launch inventory is held as an asset when there is a high probability of regulatory approval for the product. Before that point, a provision is made against the carrying value to its recoverable amount; theamount. The provision is then reversed at the point when a high probability of regulatory approval is determined.
Cash and cash equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents consist of cash on hand, demand deposits and short-term, highly liquid investments that are readily convertible to known amounts of cash and subject to insignificant risk of change in value and due within three months from the date of acquisition.
Assets Held for Sale
An asset or disposal group for which the cash flows are expected to arise principally from sale rather than continuing use is classified as an asset held for sale when it is highly probable that the asset or disposal group will be sold within one year, the asset or disposal group is available for immediate sale in its present condition, and the management of Takeda is committed to the sale. In such cases, the asset held for sale is measured at the lower of its carrying amount and fair value less costs to sell.
Property, plant and equipment and intangible assets classified as held for sale are not depreciated or amortized. Assets and liabilities classified as held for sale are presented separately as current items in the consolidated statements of financial position.
Post-employment Benefit
Takeda sponsors lump-sum payments on retirement, pensions and other plans such as post-retirement medical care as post-employment benefit plans. They are classified intoas defined benefit plans andor defined contribution plans, depending on the characteristics of the plans.
Defined Benefit Plans
Takeda uses the projected unit credit method to determine the present value, the related current service cost, and the past service cost by each defined benefit obligation. The discount rate is determined by reference to market yields on high quality corporate bonds at the end of the reporting period. The net defined benefit liabilities (assets) in the consolidated statements of financial position are calculated by deducting the fair value of the plan assets from the present value of the defined benefit obligations. Past service cost defined as the change in the present value of the defined benefit obligation resulting from a plan amendment or curtailment is recognized in profit or loss upon occurrence of the plan amendment or curtailment.
Re-measurement
Remeasurement of net defined benefit plans is recognized in full in other comprehensive income and transferred to retained earnings in the period in which they are recognized.
Defined Contribution Plans
The costs for defined contribution plans are recognized as expenses when the employees render the related service.services.
Provisions
Takeda recognizes rebates and return reserves if Takeda receives consideration from a customer and expects to refund some or all of that consideration to the customer. In addition, provisions are recognized when Takeda has present legal or constructive obligations as a result of past events, it is probable that outflows of resources embodying economic benefits will be required to settle the obligations and reliable estimates can be made of the amount of the obligations. Takeda’s provisions consist primarily of rebates and return reserves, as well as provisions for litigation and restructuring.
Financial Instruments
Takeda’s financial instruments include financial instruments related to lease contracts, trade and other receivables and payables, liabilities for contingent consideration under business combinations, derivative instruments, and rights and obligations under employee benefit plans, which are dealt with in specific accounting policies.
Financial Assets – Subsequent to April 1, 2018
Initial Recognition and Measurement
Financial assets are recognized in the consolidated statements of financial position when Takeda becomes a party to the contractual provisionscontract of the instruments. Financial assets, except for investments in debt instruments recordedmeasured at fair value through profit or loss (FVTPL)(“FVTPL”), are initially measured at fair value plus transaction costs that are directly attributable to the acquisition.
Investments in debt instruments recordedmeasured at amortized cost: Assets such as trade and other receivables that are held within a business model whose objective is to hold financial assets in order to collect contractual cash flows and whose contractual terms give rise on specified dates to cash flows that are solely payments of principal and interest on the principal amount outstanding are measured at amortized cost. Trade receivables are initially recognized at their invoiced amounts, including any related sales taxes less adjustments for revenue deductions such as impairment loss allowance and cash discounts.
Investments in debt instruments recordedmeasured at fair value through other comprehensive income (FVTOCI)(“FVTOCI”): Assets that are held within a business model objective whose objective is achieved by both collecting contractual cash flows and selling financial assets whose contractual terms give rise on specified dates to cash flows that are solely payments of principal and interest on the principal amount outstanding are measured at FVTOCI.
Investments in debt instruments recordedmeasured at fair value through profit or loss (FVTPL):FVTPL: Assets that do not meet the criteria for amortized cost or FVTOCI are measured at FVTPL.
Equity instruments recordedmeasured at FVTOCI: On initial recognition, Takeda mademakes an irrevocable FVTOCI election (on an instrument-by-instrument basis) to present the subsequent changes in the fair value of equity instruments in other comprehensive income for certain equity instruments held for the long term for strategic purposes. At the reporting date, Takeda designates all of its equity instruments as financial assets measured at FVTOCI.
Subsequent Measurement and Derecognition
Takeda derecognizes a financial asset only when the contractual right to receive the cash flows from the asset expires or when Takeda transfers the financial asset and substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership of the asset to another entity.
Investments in debt instruments recordedmeasured at amortized cost: These assets are subsequently measured at amortized cost using the effective interest method. The amortized cost is reduced by impairment losses. Interest income, foreign exchange gains and losses and impairment are recognized in profit or loss. Any gain or loss on derecognition is recognized in profit or loss.
Investments in debt instruments recordedmeasured at FVTOCI: These assets are subsequently measured at fair value. Interest income calculated using the effective interest method, foreign exchange gains and losses and impairment are recognized in profit or loss. Other net gains and losses are recognized in OCI.other comprehensive income. Upon derecognition of the investments, the gains and losses accumulated in OCIother comprehensive income related to the investment is reclassified to profit or loss.
Investments in debt instruments recordedmeasured at FVTPL: These assets are subsequently measured at fair value, and a gain or loss on debt instruments that is subsequently measured at FVTPL is recognized in profit or loss.
Equity instruments recordedmeasured at FVTOCI: These assets are subsequently measured at fair value. Dividends are recognized as income in profit or loss unless the dividend clearly represents a recovery of part of the cost of the investment. Other net gains and losses are recognized in OCIother
comprehensive income and are never reclassified to profit or loss. Upon derecognition of the investments, the amounts in OCIother comprehensive income related to the investment is reclassified within equity to retained earnings.
Impairment
Loss allowancesfor trade receivables are established using an ECLExpected Credit Loss (“ECL”) model. The provisions are based on a forward-looking ECL, which includes possible default events on the trade receivables over the entire holding period of the trade receivables. Takeda has elected to measure provisions for trade receivables, contract assets and lease receivables at an amount equal to lifetime ECL. Takeda uses a provisions matrix based on historical loss rates adjusted for forward looking information to calculate ECL. These provisions represent the difference between the contractual amount of the trade receivables and the lease receivables in the consolidated financial statements of financial position and the estimated collectible net amount.
Financial Assets – Prior to April 1, 2018
Initial Recognition and Measurement
Financial assets are recognized in the consolidated statements of financial position when Takeda becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the instruments. Financial assets, except for financial assets at fair value through profit or loss, are initially measured at fair value plus transaction costs that are directly attributable to the acquisition.
At the initial recognition, the financial assets are classified based on the nature and purpose in accordance with the following:
Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss: Eithereither held-for-trading financial assets or financial assets designated as financial assets at fair value through profit or loss.
Loans and receivables: Non-derivativenon-derivative financial assets with fixed or determinable payments that are not quoted in an active market.
Available-for-sale financial assets: Non-derivativenon-derivative financial assets that are either designated as available-for-sale financial assets or not classified as (a) financial assets at fair value through profit or loss, or (b) loans and receivables.
Subsequent Measurement
Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss – Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss are measured at fair value, and any gains or losses arising on re-measurement are recognized in profit or loss.
Loans and receivables – Loans and receivables are measured at amortized cost using the effective interest method less any impairment loss. Interest income is recognized principally by applying the effective interest rate, unless the recognition of interest is immaterial as in the case of short-term receivables.
Available-for-sale financial assets – Available-for-sale financial assets are measured at fair value as of the end of the reporting period, and the gains and losses arising from changes in fair value are recognized in other comprehensive income. Exchange differences on monetary assets are recognized in profit or loss. Dividends on available-for-sale financial assets (equity instruments) are recognized in profit or loss in the reporting period when Takeda’s right to receive the dividends is established. Upon derecognition of the investments, the amounts in OCIother comprehensive income related to the investment is reclassified to profit or loss.
Impairment
Financial assets are considered impaired when there is objective evidence that one or more events occurred after the initial recognition of the financial asset and it is reasonably anticipated to have had a negative impact on the estimated future cash flows of the asset. For available-for-sale equity instrument, a significant or prolonged decline in the fair value below its cost is considered objective evidence of impairment. Even when there is no objective evidence of impairment individually, certain categories of financial assets, such as trade receivables, are collectively assessed for impairment. For financial assets measured at amortized cost, the impairment loss is the difference between the carrying amount of the asset and the present value of the estimated future cash flows discounted at the original effective interest rate on the asset. In a subsequent period, if the amount of the impairment loss decreases and the decrease can be related objectively to an event occurring after the impairment was recognized; the previously recognized impairment loss is reversed through profit or loss. When an available-for-sale financial asset is determined to be impaired, the cumulative gain or loss that was previously accumulated in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) is reclassified to profit or loss in the same period. In respect to available-for-sale equity investments, impairment loss previously recognized in profit or loss is not reversed through profit or loss. In respect to available-for-sale debt instruments, if the amount of the fair value increases in a subsequent period and the increase can be related objectively to an event occurring after the impairment was recognized; the previously recognized impairment loss is reversed through profit or loss.
Derecognition
Takeda derecognizes a financial asset only when the contractual right to receive the cash flows from the asset expires or when Takeda transfers the financial asset and substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership of the asset to another entity. On derecognition of a financial asset, the difference between the carrying amount and the consideration received or receivable is recognized in profit or loss, and the cumulative gain or loss that was previously accumulated in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) is reclassified to profit or loss.
Financial Liabilities
Initial Recognition and Measurement
Financial liabilities are recognized in the consolidated statements of financial position when Takeda becomes a party to contractual provisionsthe contract of financial instruments. Financial liabilities are classified, at initial recognition, as financial liabilities measured at fair value through profit or loss,FVTPL, bonds and loans, or payables.
Financial liabilities, except for financial liabilitiesthose measured at fair value through profit or loss,FVTPL, are initially measured at fair value less transaction costs that are directly attributable to the issuance.
Subsequent Measurement
Financial liabilities recordedmeasured at FVTPL: Financial liabilities measured at fair value through profit or loss are measured at fair value, and any gains or losses arising on re-measurement are recognized in profit or loss. Financial liabilities measured at fair value through the profit and loss includesFVTPL include derivatives and financial liabilities associated with contingent consideration related to business combinations.arrangements.
Other financial liabilities, including bonds and loans: Other financial liabilities are measured at amortized cost mainly using the effective interest method.
Derecognition
Takeda derecognizes a financial liability only when the obligation specified in the contract is discharged, cancelled,canceled, or expires. On derecognition of a financial liability, the difference between the carrying amount and the consideration paid or payable is recognized in profit or loss.
Derivatives
Takeda hedges the risks arising mainly from theirits exposure to fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates and interest rates using derivative financial instrumentsderivatives such as foreign exchange forward contracts, currency options, interest and cross currency interest rate swaps currency options, and currency swaps.forward rate agreements. Takeda does not enter into derivative transactions for trading or speculative purposes. Derivatives are measured at FVTPL unless the derivative contracts are designated as hedging instruments. The gains and losses on derivatives that are not designed as hedging instruments are recognized in profit or loss. The treatment of the change in fair value for derivatives designated as hedging instruments varies based on the type of hedge as described below.
Hedge Accounting- Subsequent to April 1, 2018
For foreign currency exposure as a result of translationtransaction risk, Takeda designates certain non-derivatives, such as foreign currency denominated debt, as net investment hedges of foreign operations. For foreign currency exposure due to foreign currency denominated transactions, Takeda designates certain derivatives, such as foreign currency forwards, currency options and cross currency interest rate swaps, as cash flow hedges of forecasted transactions. For interest risk exposure Takeda designates derivatives such as interest and cross currency interest rate swaps and forward rate agreements, as cash flow hedges of forecasted transactions. Within the designation documentation at inception, Takeda documents the risk management objective, nature of the risk being hedged, and relationship between hedging instruments and hedged risk based on the strategy for undertaking the hedging relationships. At inception and on a quarterly basis, Takeda also assesses whether the hedging instruments are highly effective in offsetting changes in the fair value or the cash flows of the hedged item.
Cash flow hedges –hedges: the effective portion of changes in the fair value of derivatives designated and qualifying as cash flow hedges is recognized in other comprehensive income. The gain or loss relating to the ineffective portion is recognized immediately in profit or loss. The cumulative gain or loss that was previously recognized in other comprehensive income is reclassified to profit or loss in the same period when the cash flows of the hedged items are recognized in profit or loss and in the same line item in the consolidated statements of income.profit or loss. The currency basis spread and the time value of the foreign currency options are accounted for and presented as hedging cost under other components of equity separately from cash flow hedges.
Net investment hedges –hedges: the gain or loss on hedging instruments is recognized in other comprehensive income. At the time of disposal of the foreign operations, the cumulative gain or loss recognized in other comprehensive income is reclassified to profit or loss.
Hedge accounting is discontinued when the hedging instrument expires or is sold, terminated or exercised, or when the hedge no longer qualifies for hedge accounting.
Hedge Accounting - Prior to April 1, 2018
The policy applied prior to April 1, 2018 is similar to that applied subsequent to April 1, 2018. However, for all cash flow hedges, the currency basis spread was accounted for and presented under cash flow hedges.
Transaction costs of financial liabilities
Transaction costs relating to the financial liabilities of debt issued are recorded against the corresponding debt and amortized to the consolidated statements of incomeprofit or loss over the period to the earliest redemption date of the debt, using the effective interest rate method. On extinguishment of the related debt, any unamortized deferred transaction costs are written off and charged to interest expense in the consolidated statements of income.profit or loss.
Share-based Payments
Takeda has implemented share-based payment programs and provides equity and cash-settled share-based payments.
Equity-settled Share-based Payments
Equity-settled share-based payments are granted based on the service performed by the employees, directors, and senior management. The service received and the corresponding increase in equity are measured at the fair value of the equity instruments at the grant date. The fair value of the equity instruments granted to employees, directors, and senior management are recognized as expense over the vesting period of the awards with a corresponding amount as an increase in equity.
Cash-settled Share-based Payments
Cash-settled share-based payments are granted based on the service performed by the employees, directors, and senior management. The service received and the corresponding liability are measured at the fair value of the corresponding liability. The fair value of the liability-classified awards granted to employees, directors, and senior management are recognized as expense over the vesting period of the awards with a corresponding amount as an increase in liability. Takeda re-measures the fair value of the liability at the end of each reporting period and at the date of settlement and recognizes any changes in fair value in profit or loss.
Capital
Ordinary Shares
Proceeds from the issuance of ordinary shares by the CompanyTakeda are included in share capital and share premium.
Treasury Shares
When the CompanyTakeda acquires treasury shares, the consideration paid is recognized as a deduction from equity. When the CompanyTakeda sells the treasury shares, the difference between the carrying amount and the consideration received is recognized in share premium.
4. Operating Segment and Revenue Information
Takeda comprises a single operating segment and is engaged in the research, development, manufacturing and marketing of pharmaceutical products, over-the-counter ("OTC"(“OTC”) medicines and quasi-drug consumer products, and other healthcare products. This is consistent with how the financial information is viewed in allocating resources, measuring performance, and forecasting future periods by the CEO who is Takeda’s Chief Operating Decision Maker.
Disaggregation of Revenue Information
Takeda’s revenue from contracts with customers is comprised of the following:

In the United States,U.S., the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (“U.S. Tax Reform”) was enacted on December 22, 2017. The federal corporate tax rate was reduced from 35% to 21% beginning January 1, 2018 under the new tax law. As a consequence of U.S. Tax Reform enactment, Takeda recognized tax benefits of 27,516 million JPY during the year ended March 31, 2018, primarily from the revaluation of net deferred tax liabilities at lower future tax rates and the improved recoverability of deferred tax attributes resulting from U.S. Tax Reform enacted federal law changes.changes (in Effect of changes in applicable tax rates and tax law).
As a result of the Federal Act on Tax Reform and AHV Financing (“TRAF”, also known as the “Swiss Tax Reform”) approved by public referendum nationally on May 19, 2019 and in the canton of Zurich on September 1, 2019, Takeda recognized a net asset tax basis step-up related to the estimated value of one of the Takeda’s Swiss subsidiary’s assets that is amortizable as a tax deduction to partially offset future taxable earnings generated by the subsidiary over tax years 2020 through 2029. The decreasenet asset tax basis step-up resulted in Takeda’s effectivea deferred tax rate from 19.4% to 14.0% betweenbenefit of 102,499 million

In addition to a one-timethe recognition of the deferred tax benefit from the enactment of U.S. Tax Reform principallyasset related to the revaluation ofnet asset tax basis step-up, Takeda also recorded a net deferred tax liability at a lower enacted tax rate and improved recoverabilityexpense of 7,888 million JPY relating to the remeasurement of other Swiss deferred tax attributes resulting from U.S.assets and liabilities for the change in the Federal and cantonal tax rates. As a result of Swiss Tax Reform enactment, Takeda recognized a net tax benefit of 94,611 million JPY during the year ended March 31, 20182020 (in effectEffect of changes in applicable tax rates), partially offset byrates and tax benefit from subsidiary capital redemption (in changes in unrecognized deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities) during the prior year that did not occur in the current year.law).
The decrease in Takeda’s effective tax rate from 14.0% to (14.9)(5.9)% between the years ended March 31, 2018 and 2019 was primarily due to a one-time tax benefit from restructuring of subsidiaries, (inin changes in unrecognized deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities)liabilities and favorable audit settlements, (inin tax contingencies),contingencies, partially offset by an increase in non-deductible expenses for tax purposes and differences in applicable tax rates of overseas subsidiaries and the impact of U.S. Tax Reform, (inin effect of changes in applicable tax rates)rates and tax law during the prior year that did not occur in the current year.
The increase in Takeda’s effective tax rate was changed from (5.9)% of tax benefit to 172.9% of tax benefit between the years ended March 31, 2019 and 2020 was primarily due to a non-cash deferred tax benefit as a result of enactment of tax reform in Switzerland in the current fiscal year in effect of changes in applicable tax rates and tax law. The higher income tax benefit in the year ended March 31, 2020 was also due to recognition of deferred tax assets for accumulated net operating loss in changes in unrecognized deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities. These favorable changes were partially offset by higher tax provisions for uncertain tax positions in tax contingencies and tax impacts of restructuring.

There was no amount of deferred tax recorded directly to equity for the period ended March 31, 2018. The aggregate amount of deferred tax related to items recorded directly to equity for the period ended March 31, 2019 caused a reduction in equity of 1,992 million JPY.JPY and nil for the years ended March 31, 2019 and 2020, respectively.
Takeda considers the probability that a portion or all of the future deductible temporary differences, unused tax losses, or unused tax credits can be utilized against future taxable profits upon recognition of deferred tax assets. In assessing the recoverability of deferred tax assets, Takeda considers the scheduled reversal of taxable temporary differences, projected future taxable profits, and tax planning strategies.
Based on the level of historical taxable profits and projected future taxable profits during the periods in which the temporary differences become deductible, Takeda determined that it is probable that the tax benefits can be utilized.

Basic EPS is calculated by dividing the net profit for the year attributable to owners of the Company, with the weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding during the year. This calculation excludes the average number of treasury shares. Diluted EPS is calculated by dividing the net profit for the year attributable to owners of the Company, with the weighted-average number of ordinary shares outstanding during the year plus the weighted-average number of ordinary shares that would be issued upon conversion of all the dilutive ordinary shares into ordinary shares.
There were 901814 thousand shares that are anti-dilutive, such as stock options, that are anti-dilutive,and therefore not included in the calculation of diluted earnings per shareEPS for both the yearyears ended March 31, 2017,2019 and 814 thousand such anti-dilutive shares not included for the year ended March 31, 2019.2020, respectively.

During the year ended March 31, 2020, Takeda completed the purchase price allocation to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed as part of the Shire acquisition. As a result, goodwill of 3,087,369 million JPY recognized for the Shire acquisition on a provisional basis was retrospectively adjusted to 3,165,513 million JPY. See Note 31 for further detail of completed purchase price allocation.
Impairment Testing of Goodwill
As of March 31, 2019, Takeda’s groups of cash-generating units (“CGUs”) to which goodwill was allocated were “Prescription drugs sold worldwide,” “Prescription drugs sold outside of the United States and Japan,” and “Other”. For the year ended March 31, 2020, Takeda changed the allocation of goodwill due to the reorganization in management and reporting structures driven by the acquisition of Shire and subsequent integration to optimize synergies for Takeda. As a result, as of March 31, 2020, all of the goodwill was tested for impairment at the single operating segment level, which is the level at which goodwill is monitored for internal management purposes. Takeda did not record any impairment as a result of impairment testing performed based on the groups of CGUs before this change.
As of March 31, 2019, goodwill was allocated to the following groups of cash-generating units (“CGU”):CGUs:

Impairment loss for goodwill is recognized if the recoverable amount of goodwill is less than the carrying amount. The recoverable amount is the greater of fair value less costs to sell,of disposal, or value in use.
For the years ended March 31, 2018 and 2019, the recoverable amounts of the groups of CGUs were assessed based on value in use. Value in use iswas calculated by discounting the estimated future cash flows based on a three-year projection approved by management using an appropriate growth rate and a discount rate. The projection includesincluded assumptions about product launches, competition from rival products and pricing policy as well as the possibility of generics entering the market and loss of exclusivity. In setting these assumptions, Takeda considersconsidered past experience, external sources of information, knowledge of competitor activity, and industry trends.
The significant assumptions used to calculate the recoverable amount (value in use) are as follows:
|
| | | | | |
| | Growth Raterate | | Discount Raterate (Post-tax) | | Discount Raterate (Pre-tax) |
| | Based on country/market specific long-term average growth rate for the CGU | | Based on country/market specific weighted average cost of capital | | Based on country/market specific weighted average cost of capital |
March 31, 2017 | 1.5% – 2.7% | | 4.9% – 13.5% | | 7.0% – 16.9% |
| As of March 31, 2018 | 1.5% – 3.2% | | 5.6% – 14.4% | | 8.0% – 18.0% |
| As of March 31, 2019 | 1.3% – 2.8% | | 6.1% – 11.8% | | 8.8% – 15.5% |
For the year ended March 31, 2020, the recoverable amount was assessed based on fair value less costs of disposal. The fair value less costs of disposal was calculated by discounting the estimated future cash flows based on a five-year projection using an appropriate growth rate and a discount rate as well as deducting the estimated costs of disposal. The projection included assumptions about product launches, competition from rival products and pricing policy as well as the possibility of generics entering the market and loss of exclusivity. In setting these assumptions, Takeda considered past experience, external sources of information, knowledge of competitor activity, and industry trends. The valuation methodology uses significant inputs which are not based on observable market data, therefore this fair value less costs of disposal is classified as level 3 in usethe fair value hierarchy.
As a further check, Takeda compared its market capitalization to the book value of its equity and this indicated significant surplus as of March 31, 2020.
Terminal growth rate and discount rate used in the discounted cash flow models for the impairment tests are as follows:
|
| | |
| | As of March 31, 2020 |
| Terminal growth rate | | 0.0% |
| Discount rate (post-tax) | | 7.0% |
Terminal growth rate is based on management’s estimate of future long-term average growth rates. Discount rate is based on weighted average cost of capital (“WACC”) of Takeda.
The recoverable amounts exceeded the relevant carrying amount in each group of CGUs,amounts, and a reasonable change in the assumptions would not result in an impairment.

Impairment
Takeda’s impairment assessment for intangible assets requires a number of significant judgments to be made by management to estimate the recoverable amount, including the estimated pricing and costs, likelihood of regulatory approval, and the estimated market and Takeda’s share of the market. The most significant assumption for intangible assets associated with marketed products is the product market share of the therapeutic area and estimated pricing, whereas the most significant assumption with pre-marketed products and in-process R&D is the probability of regulatory approval. A change in these assumptions may have a significant impact on the amount, if any, of an impairment charge recorded during a period. For example, negative results from a clinical trial may change the assumption and result in an impairment. Products in development may be fully impaired when a trial is unsuccessful and there is no alternative use for the development asset.
Takeda recorded impairment losses of 44,609 million JPY, a reversal of impairment losses of 3,889 million JPY, (netnet of impairment losses),losses, impairment losses of 8,698 million JPY, and impairment losses of 8,69848,077 million JPY during the years ended March 31, 2017, 2018, 2019, and 2019,2020, respectively. These losses are primarily recognized in amortization and impairment losses on intangible assets associated with products in the consolidated statementstatements of income.
During the year ended March 31, 2017, Takeda recorded impairment losses of 44,609 million JPY primarily resulting from a decision to terminate development of certain products and competitive product launches. The recoverable amount of the impaired assets amounted to 45,275 million JPY. Specifically, during the year ended March 31, 2017, Takeda recorded an impairment loss of 16,003 million JPY due to a decline in expected profitability of COLCRYS, an impairment loss of 7,889 million JPY due to the termination of development of an oncology product, and an impairment loss of 3,359 million JPY due to the termination of development of a vaccine product.profit or loss.
During the year ended March 31, 2018, Takeda recorded a reversal of a previously recorded impairment losses of 23,057 million JPY mainly related to COLCRYS based on more favorable sales performance. The recoverable amount of the assets related to the reversal was 49,113 million JPY. This was offset by impairment losses of 19,168 million JPY primarily resulting from a decision to terminate development of certain products. The recoverable amount of the impaired assets amounted to 3,185 million JPY.
During the year ended March 31, 2019, Takeda recorded impairment losses of 8,698 million JPY. The recoverable amount of the combined impaired assets amounted to 29,667 million JPY. The impairment losses primarily resulted from the decision to terminate a collaboration agreement on development of oncology products (Note 13).products.
During the year ended March 31, 2020, Takeda recorded impairment losses of 48,077 million JPY. The recoverable amount of the combined impaired assets amounted to 11,815 million JPY. The impairment losses primarily resulted from a decision to terminate development of a rare diseases product and an increase in estimated future development costs due to a change in study design related to a rare diseases product.
Impairment losses were calculated by deducting the recoverable amount from the carrying amount.
The significant assumptions used to calculate the recoverable amount (value in use) are as follows:
|
| | | |
| | Discount Rate (Post-tax) | | Discount Rate (Pre-tax) |
| March 31, 2017 | 5.7% - 13.5% | | 8.3% - 16.9% |
| March 31, 2018 | 6.5% - 14.4% | | 9.4% - 18.5% |
| March 31, 2019 | 11.0% | | 14.2% |
|
| |
| Discount rate
(Post-tax) |
| March 31, 2018 | 6.5% - 14.4% |
| March 31, 2019 | 11.0% |
| March 31, 2020 | 7.0% - 8.0% |
A part of the recoverable amount was measured at the fair value less costs of disposal (the amount that was expected to be received by selling the assets). This fair value is classified as Level 3 in the fair value hierarchy.

On June 6, 2019, Takeda issued hybrid subordinated bonds (the “Hybrid Bonds”) with an aggregate principal amount of 500 billion JPY. The proceeds from the Hybrid Bonds were used to repay the existing syndicated loans comprised of the senior short-term loan facility that was utilized to finance the acquisition of Shire. The Hybrid Bonds will mature on June 6, 2079. Under the terms and conditions of the Hybrid Bonds, Takeda may make an early repayment of all of the principal of the Hybrid Bonds on each interest payment date beginning October 6, 2024. Interest is payable semi-annually at a rate 1.720% through October 6, 2024 and 6 months LIBOR + margin (1.750 - 2.750%) thereafter subject to annual revision. The
Hybrid Bonds are unsecured, and Takeda is not subject to any financial covenants related to these bonds.
In September 2019, Takeda reached an agreement on a commitment facility of 700 billion JPY with various Japanese and non-Japanese banks. The commitment facility is effective from October 2019 for five years at a minimum. In connection with entering into this new commitment facility, Takeda’s existing short-term commitment facility of 300 billion JPY expiring in March 2020 was canceled in September 2019. The purpose of the new commitment facility is for general business use. There were no drawdowns on the 700 billion JPY commitment facility as of March 31, 2020.
There are long-term financing agreements that contain various financial covenants which require Takeda to maintain certain financial ratios and other restrictions including the level of the company’s borrowings. During the year ended March 31, 2020, Takeda amended various financial covenants on certain borrowings. The key amendment was related to certain loans maturing beyond August 2020, which contained the historic restrictive covenant that Takeda’s profit before tax must not be negative for two consecutive fiscal years. This covenant was removed and was replaced by one where Takeda’s ratio of consolidated net debt to consolidated EBITDA, as defined in the loan agreements, for the previous twelve-month period should not surpass certain levels as of March 31 and September 30 of each year. Takeda was in compliance with all financial covenants as of March 31, 2020.
The bonds and loans incurred by Takeda to fund a portion of the Shire Acquisition comprised of the following:
2018 EUR Unsecured Notes - variable rate comprised of 1,000 million EUR at 3 month EURIBOR + 0.550% interest maturing in 2020, 750 million EUR at 3 month EURIBOR + 1.100% interest maturing in 2022.

Financial liabilities associated with contingent consideration arrangementsF- 50
Financial liabilities associated with contingent consideration arrangements represent consideration related to business combinations or license agreements that is payable only upon future events such as the achievement of development milestones and sales targets, including pre-existing contingent consideration arrangements of the companies that are acquired by Takeda. At each reporting date, the fair value of contingent consideration is re-measured based on risk-adjusted future cash flows discounted using appropriate discount rate.
As of the year ended March 31, 2018, financial liabilities associated with contingent consideration arrangements primarily consists of contingent consideration related to the performance of the COLCRYS business which was acquired in the acquisition of URL Pharma. Inc. in June 2012.
As of the year ended March 31, 2019, the balance primarily relates to pre-existing contingent consideration arrangements from Shire’s historical acquisitions.
The pre-existing contingent consideration acquired from Shire through Shire’s historical acquisitions is due upon the achievement of certain milestones related to the development, regulatory, first commercial sale and other sales milestones of products at various stages of development and marketing, which could total up to 83,802 million JPY of undiscounted payments over a period of over 20 years. The fair value of the contingent consideration payable could increase or decrease due to changes in certain assumptions which underpin the fair value measurements. The assumptions include probability of milestones being achieved.
The fair value of financial liabilities associated with contingent consideration arrangements are classified as Level 3 in the fair value hierarchy. |

22. Employee Benefits
Defined Benefit Plans
The Company and some of its subsidiaries have various defined benefit plans such as lump-sum retirement payments plans and defined benefit pension plans, which define the amount of benefits that an employee will receive on or after retirement, usually based on one or more factors, such as age, years of employment, compensation, classes, and service.
The Company’s defined benefit plans account for the majority of Takeda’s defined benefit obligations and plan assets.
Defined benefit pension plans
Japan
The Company’s corporate defined benefit pension plan in Japan is a funded defined benefit pension plan, which is regulated by the Defined-Benefit Corporate Pension Act, one of the Japanese pension laws. Benefits are paid in exchange for services rendered by employees who worked for more than a specified period, typically three years, considering their years of service and the degree of their contribution to the Company.
The Company’s pension fund (the “Fund”) is an independent entity established in accordance with the Japanese pension laws, and Takeda has an obligation to make contributions. The Director(s) of the Fund has the fiduciary duty to comply with laws; the directives by the Minister of Health, Labor and Welfare, and the Director-Generals of Regional Bureaus of Health and Welfare made pursuant to those laws; and the by-laws of the Fund
and the decisions made by the Board of Representatives of the Fund. Contributions are also regularly reviewed and adjusted as necessary to the extent permitted by laws and regulations.
Foreign
Other types of defined benefit pension plans operated by Takeda are generally established and operated in the same manner as described above and in accordance with local laws and regulations where applicable.
The present value of the defined benefit obligation is calculated annually based on actuarial valuations that are dependent upon a number of assumptions, including discount rates and future salary (benefit) increases, in accordance with IAS 19 ‘Employee Benefits’.increases. Service costs charged to operating expense related to defined benefit plans represent the increase in the defined benefit liability arising from pension benefits earned by active participants in the current period. Takeda is exposed to investment and other experience risks and may need to make additional contributions where it is estimated that the benefits will not be met from regular contributions, expected investment income, and assets held.

Fair Value Measurement
Derivative and non-derivative financial instruments measured at fair value are categorized in the following three-tier fair value hierarchy that reflects the significance of the inputs in making the measurements. Level 1 is defined as observable inputs, such as quoted prices in active markets for an identical asset or liability. Level 2 is defined as inputs other than quoted prices in active markets within Level 1 that are directly or indirectly observable. Level 3 is defined as unobservable inputs. Fair value information is not provided for financial instruments, if the carrying amount is a reasonable estimate of fair value due to the relatively short period of maturity of these instruments.

For the year ended March 31, 2018, available-for-sale financial assets and other financial assets for which it was difficult to reliably measure the fair value are excluded from the table. The carrying amounts of such assets as of March 31, 2018 were 6,750 million JPY and 2,070 million JPY respectively. These assets were primarily unlisted equity investments and the fair value of the investments was difficult to reliably measure as they are not traded on stock markets.
Valuation Techniques
The fair value of derivatives is measured atbased on quoted pricesprice or quotes obtained from financial institutions or the Black-Scholes model, whose significant inputs to the valuation model used are based on observable market data. During the year ended March 31, 2020, a 25,660 million JPY
valuation gain was recognized at the timing of public offering in finance income on the warrant to purchase stocks of a privately held company upon that company’s initial public offering.
The fair value of the investment in convertible notes is measured using techniques such as the discounted cash flow and option pricing models.
Equity investments and investments in debt securities are not held for trading. If equity instruments or investments in debt securities are quoted in an active market, the fair value is based on price quotations at the period-end-date. If equity instruments or investments in debt securities are not quoted
in an active market, the fair value is calculated utilizing a net asset-book value method or multiples of EBITDA approach based on available information as of each period-end-date and company comparable. The principle input that is not observable and utilized for the calculation of the fair value of equity instruments and investments in debt securities classified as Level 3 is the EBITDA rate used for the EBITDA multiples approach, which ranges from 4.65.0 times to 11.111.9 times. During the yearyears ended March 31, 2019 aand 2020, cumulative gaingains on equity investments of 44,230 million JPY wasand 19,903 million JPY were reclassified from other comprehensive income to retained earnings, respectively, upon the disposal of certain equity investments in publicly traded companies. The fair value of these investments on the dates of disposal wasduring the years ended March 31, 2019 and 2020 were 65,035 million JPY.JPY and 35,435 million JPY, respectively. The investments were disposed of after management’s assessment of these investments relative to the investment strategy.
ContingentFinancial assets and liabilities associated with contingent consideration resulting from business combinations, isarrangements are valued at fair value at timing of the divestiture or the acquisition date as part of the business combination. When the contingent consideration meets the definition of a financial asset or liability, it is subsequently re-measured to fair value at each reportingclosing date. The determination of the fair value is based on models such as scenario-based methods and discounted cash flows. The key assumptions take into consideration the probability of meeting each performance target, forecasted revenue projections, and the discount factor. The fair value measurementfinancial assets associated with contingent consideration arrangements are recognized in relation to the divestiture of Xiidra. The financial liabilities associated with contingent considerations arising from business combinations isconsideration arrangements are discussed in Note 21.Financial liabilities associated with contingent consideration arrangements.
The joint venture net written option, included in other Level 3 assets for the year ended March 31, 2019liabilities above is valued at fair value, and subsequently re-measured to fair value at each reportingclosing date. The determination of the fair value is based on the Monte Carlo Simulation model. The key assumptions include probability weighting, estimated earnings and assumed market participant discount rates that are taken into account for the fair value.
Transfers between levels
Takeda recognizes transfers between levels of the fair value hierarchy, at the end of the reporting period during which the change has occurred. There were no transfers among Level 1, Level 2, and Level 3 except transfers from Level 3 to Level 1 recorded in 20182019 and 2019.2020. These transfers resulted from the investments in the companies whose shares were previously not listed on an equity or stock exchange and had no recent observable active trades in the shares. During the years ended March 31, 20182019 and 2019,2020, the companies listed its equity shares on an exchange and are currently actively traded in the market. As the equity shares have a published price quotation in an active market, the fair value measurement was transferred from Level 3 to Level 1 on the fair value hierarchy during the years ended March 31, 20182019 and March 31, 2019,2020, respectively.
Level 3 financial assets fair values
Takeda invests in equity instruments mainly for research collaboration. The following table shows a reconciliation from the opening balances to the closing balances for Level 3 financial asset fair values for the year ended March 31, 2019. There were no Level 3 financial assets reflected in the consolidated financial statements of Takeda for the years ended March 31, 20172019 and 2018.2020. The disclosure related to the Level 3 financial liabilities which are related tofinancial liabilities associated with contingent considerations arising from business combinations,consideration arrangements are included in Note 21.Financial liabilities associated with contingent consideration arrangements.

Financial liabilities associated with contingent consideration arrangements
Financial liabilities associated with contingent consideration arrangements represent consideration related to business combinations or license agreements that are payable only upon future events such as the achievement of development milestones and sales targets, including pre-existing contingent consideration arrangements of the companies that are acquired by Takeda. At each reporting date, the fair value of contingent consideration is re-measured based on risk-adjusted future cash flows discounted using an appropriate discount rate.
As of March 31, 2019 and 2020, the balance primarily relates to pre-existing contingent consideration arrangements from Shire’s historical acquisitions.
The pre-existing contingent consideration acquired from Shire through Shire’s historical acquisitions is due upon the achievement of certain milestones related to the development, regulatory, first commercial sale and other sales milestones of products at various stages of development and marketing, which could total up to 64,310 million JPY of undiscounted payments over a period of over 20 years. The fair value of the contingent consideration payable could increase or decrease due to changes in certain assumptions which underpin the fair value measurements. The assumptions include probability of milestones being achieved.
The fair value of financial liabilities associated with contingent consideration arrangements are classified as Level 3 in the fair value hierarchy. |

Market Risk
Major market risks to which Takeda is exposed are 1) foreign currency risk, 2) interest rate risk and 3) price fluctuation risk. Financial instruments affected by market risk include loans and borrowings, deposits, equity investments and derivative financial instruments.
Foreign Currency Risk
Takeda’s exposure to the risk of changes in foreign exchange rates primarily relates to its operations (when revenue or expense is denominated in a foreign currency) and the Company’sTakeda’s net investments in foreign subsidiaries. The CompanyTakeda manages foreign currency risks in a centralized manner using derivative financial instruments. The Company'sTakeda’s policy does not permit the use of speculative foreign currency financial instruments or derivatives, and Takeda does not enter into derivative contracts or financial instruments to manage its exposure currency translation risk.derivatives.
Takeda uses forward exchange contracts, currency swaps, and currency options to hedge individually significant foreign currency transactions. Takeda has also designated loans and bonds denominated in the US dollar and Euro, including the US dollar and Euro debt instruments used to fund the Shire Acquisition, as hedgeshedging instruments of net investments in foreign operations. As of March 31, 2018,2019 and 2020, the total fair value of the foreign currency denominated loans and foreign currency denominated bonds was 61,2001,404,031 million JPY and 31,9301,292,239 million JPY, respectively. As of March 31, 2019,respectively, and the total fair value of the foreign currency denominated loans and foreign currency denominated bonds was 1,404,0313,203,040 million JPY and 3,203,0402,636,053 million JPY, respectively.
Takeda is exposed mainly to foreign currency risks of the US dollar and Euro. A depreciation of the JPY by 5% against the US dollar and Euro would impact profit or loss by 5,156 million JPY, 12,533 million JPY, 19,530 million JPY and 19,5309,635 million JPY as of March 31, 2017, 2018, 2019 and 2019,2020, respectively. These amounts do not include the effects of foreign currency translation on financial instruments in the functional currency or on assets, liabilities, revenue, and expenses of foreign operations. This analysis assumes that all other variables, in particular interest rates, remain constant. Takeda'sTakeda’s exposure to foreign currency changes for all other currencies is not material.

Price Fluctuation Risk Management
Commodity Price Risk
For its business operations, Takeda is exposed to risks from commodity price fluctuations. Takeda manages this risk primarily by utilizing fixed price contracts but may also use financial instruments to lock in a fixed price.
Market Price Risk
Market pricing and valuations of Takeda’s fixed-income financial assets and liabilities are impacted by changes in currency rates, interest rates and
credit spreads, which are managed as described above.
For equity instruments, the CompanyTakeda manages the risk of price fluctuations in the instruments by regularly reviewing share prices and financial positions of the issuers. The analysis shows that if the market price of equity instruments held by Takeda and investments in trusts which hold equity instruments on behalf of Takeda had increased by 10%, the hypothetical impact on other comprehensive income (before tax effect) would have been 16,30311,991 million JPY and 11,9917,922 million JPY as offor the years ended March 31, 20182019 and 20192020, respectively. This analysis assumes that all other variables, in particular interest rates and foreign currency exchange rates, remain constant.
Derivative Financial Instruments
As described above, Takeda is exposed to effects related to foreign exchange fluctuations in connection with our international business activities that are denominated in various currencies and TakedaTakeda’s overseas entities that have different functional currencies. Takeda is also exposed to currency and interest rate fluctuations on our borrowings that we use to finance our business operations and our acquisitions. These borrowings are denominated in various currencies and may bear interest at variable rates, resulting in the risk related to the currency and interest rate movements.
In order to manage the risk of currency exchange rate and interest rate fluctuations, Takeda may enter into derivative contracts with highly rated financial institutions. Takeda enters into derivative contracts based on our risk management policies, which determine the authority for entering into such transactions and the transaction limits. The policy, which has been consistently followed, is that financial derivatives be used only for hedging foreign currency and interest rate exposure and not for speculative purposes.
Takeda generally designates its derivatives as hedges for accounting purposes. In certain instances, Takeda enters into derivative contracts that do not qualify for hedge accounting but are utilized to manage the underlying risk (‘‘economic hedges’’). Takeda does not use financial instruments for tradingspeculative purposes. The CompanyTakeda established guidelines for risk assessment procedures and controls for the use of financial instruments. They include a clear segregation of duties with regard to execution on one side and administration, accounting and controlling on the other.

Capital Management
The capital structure of Takeda consists of shareholders’ equity (Note 26), bonds and loans (Note 20), and cash and cash equivalents (Note 18). The fundamental principles of Takeda’s capital risk management are to build and maintain a steady financial base for the purpose of maintaining soundness and efficiency of operations and achieving sustainable growth. According to these principles, Takeda conducts capital investment, profit distribution such as dividends, and repayment of loans based on steady operating cash flows through the development and sale of competitive products. Takeda balances and monitors its capital structure between debt and equity and adheres to a conservative financial discipline.
Credit Risk
Takeda is exposed to credit risk from its operating activities (primarily trade receivables) and from its financing activities, including deposits with banks and financial institutions, foreign exchange transactions, and other financial instruments. The maximum exposure to credit risk, without taking into
account of any collateral held at the end of the reporting period, is represented by the carrying amount of the financial instruments which is exposed to credit risk on the consolidated statementstatements of financial position. Takeda regularly monitors the status of credit risk exposure with banks and financial institutions.
Customer Credit Risk
Trade and other receivables are exposed to customer credit risk. Takeda monitors the status of overdue balances, reviews outstanding balances for each customer and regularly examines the credibility of major customers in accordance with Takeda’s policies for credit management to facilitate the early evaluation and the reduction of potential credit risks. If necessary, Takeda obtains rights to collateral or guarantees on the receivables.

Management believes that the unimpaired amounts that are past due are still collectible in full, based on historical payment behavior and extensive analysis of customer credit risk.
As of March 31, 2019, and 2020, Takeda has provided loss allowance on trade receivables and other receivables not past due based on an analysis of credit histories. Loss allowance for trade receivables are measured based on expected credit losses on a collective basis using the simplified approach. However, when events that have a detrimental impact on the estimated future cash flows such as customers’ deterioration of financial conditions or failure of payment overdue have occurred, expected credit losses are measured on an individual basis as credit-impaired financial assets. Takeda considers a financial asset to be in default when the customer is unlikely to pay the obligation in full, without recourse by Takeda to take actions such as realizing collaterals, if any.
The following is a summary of the change in the loss allowance for trade receivables and other assets for the years ended March 31, 2017 and 2018. The loss allowance recognized for other than trade receivables is immaterial. Comparative amounts for 2017 and 2018 represent the allowance account for impairment losses under IAS 39.

Stock Incentive Plans
Takeda has two stock-based incentive compensation plans for its directors and members of senior management, including the following:
Board incentive plan (BIP)(“BIP”) -The BIP is a stock-based incentive plan for directors of the Company whereby Restricted Share and Performance Share awards are granted to the directors. Each award is settled in a single share of stock of the Company. Under the BIP, Restricted Shares vest one third each year over a three-year period and Performance Shares vest three years from the date of grant. The settlement of the awards is based on stock price, foreign exchange rates (in countries other than Japan), and company dividends. Performance shares are also based on the achievement of certain performance criteria, which are established at the grant date, including, among others, accumulated revenue, operating free cash flow, earnings per share and R&D goals, which are transparent and objective indicators. Takeda, through a wholly owned trust, buys shares of the Company in the market on the grant date, and uses these shares to settle the awards. The number of shares the individual receives (either through physical settlement or cash) is based on the achievement of the performance criteria and vesting of the award. The trust settles the awards through the issuance of shares to individuals in Japan. For individuals outside of Japan the trust sells the share the individual is eligible to receive and pays the cash to the individual.
Employee Stock Ownership Plan (ESOP)(“ESOP”) - The ESOP is a stock-based incentive plan for senior management whereby awards are granted to the employees. Each award is settled in a single share of stock of the Company. The vesting of the awards under this plan is the same as the BIP for certain members of senior management with the remainder of the employees’ awards vesting one third each year over a three-year period. The settlement of the awards is based on stock price, foreign exchange rates (in countries other than Japan), and company dividends. Performance shares are also based on the achievement of certain performance criteria, which are established at the grant date including, among others, accumulated revenue, operating free cash flow, earnings per share and targeted R&D goals, which are transparent and objective indicators. Takeda through wholly owned trust, buysissues shares of the Company in the marketto a wholly owned trust on the grant date and uses these shares to settle the awards. The number of shares the individual receives (either through physical settlement or cash) is based on the achievement of the performance criteria and vesting of the award. The trust settles the awards through the issuance of shares to individuals in Japan. For individuals outside of Japan the trust sells the share the individual is eligible to receive and pays cash to the individual.
The total compensation expense recognized related to these plans was 15,322 million JPY, 18,610 million JPY, 20,084 million JPY and 20,08429,122 million JPY during the years ended March 31, 2017, 2018, 2019 and 2019,2020, respectively.

As of March 31, 2019, the fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed:assumed was provisional. During the year ended March 31, 2020, Takeda completed the purchase price allocation and retrospectively adjusted the provisional amounts recognized at the acquisition date to reflect new information obtained about facts and circumstances that existed as of the acquisition date. The adjustments principally relate to certain intangible assets which consist of marketed products for which the future sales forecasts are used as primary assumptions in estimating their respective fair values.

Goodwill is calculated as the excess of the consideration transferred over the net assets recognized and represents the expected revenue and cost synergies of the combined Takeda/Shire group. Goodwill recognized as a result of the acquisition is not deductible for tax purposes (Note 11).
Provisions include 29,570 million JPY associated with amounts payable related to legal proceedings (Note 32). Other liabilities also include pre-existing contingent consideration related to Shire’s historical acquisitions. The assumed pre-existing contingent consideration is payable mainly upon the achievement of certain milestones, and the fair value of the potential payments Takeda could be required to make is 52,04648,599 million JPY (Note 21)27).
The estimated fair values primarily consisting of intangible assets, deferred tax liabilities and goodwill noted above are preliminary and are subject to change. As Takeda finalizes the fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed, additional purchase price adjustments will be recorded during the measurement period during fiscal year 2019. Fair value estimates are based on a complex series of judgments about future events and uncertainties and rely heavily on estimates and assumptions. The judgments used to determine the estimated fair value assigned to each class of assets acquired and liabilities assumed, as well as asset lives, can materially impact the Takeda’s results of operations. The finalization of the purchase accounting assessment will result in a change in the valuation of assets acquired and liabilities assumed, and may have a material impact on Takeda’s results of operations and financial position.
Takeda held foreign currency denominated deposits and entered into foreign currency options to hedge foreign currency risks for the acquisition of Shire, and Takeda applied the hedge accounting to the instruments. Basis adjustment represents accumulated change in fair value of the hedging instruments recorded in other comprehensive income of 37,107 million JPY that was added to the amount of goodwill at the acquisition date.
Takeda recorded 309,198 million JPY of revenue and 126,068100,002 million JPY of net loss related to the operating results of Shire between the acquisition date and March 31, 2019.
As a result of the adjustments, the consolidated financial statements as of and for the year ended March 31, 2019 were retrospectively adjusted. Reconciliation of consolidated statements of financial position and profit or loss as of and for the year ended March 31, 2019 previously reported with provisional purchase price allocation in the prior year to those retrospectively adjusted to reflect the final purchase price allocation and reported herein as a comparative financial information is provided per below.

On June 8, 2018, the Company acquired the Securities tendered in the first acceptance period for 470.2 million EUR. In response to the takeover bid with the Securities already owned by Takeda, Takeda acquired 90.8% of the voting rights. Takeda incurred 767 million JPY of acquisition related costs, which were expensed as incurred and recorded in selling, general and administrative expenses.
TiGenix is a biopharmaceutical company which develops novel stem cell therapies for treatment of medical conditions.

These amounts are subject to change as the Company is in the process of reviewing further details of the basis for the fair value measurement. For the year ended March 31, 2019, goodwill at the acquisition date decreased by 1,831 million JPY as a result of the adjustment to the provisional fair value, while other assets and deferred tax liabilities decreased by 253 million JPY and 2,084 million JPY, respectively.

ARIAD Pharmaceuticals, Inc.
On February 16, 2017, Takeda acquired ARIAD Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (hereinafter referred to as “ARIAD") through a tender offer to purchase all issued and outstanding shares of common stock in cash. ARIAD was focused on discovering, developing and commercializing precision therapies for patients with rare cancers. The acquisition of ARIAD is a highly strategic deal as it transforms Takeda’s global oncology portfolio and pipeline by expanding into solid tumors and reinforcing the existing strength in hematology. Brigatinib (US product name: ALUNBRIG) is a small molecule ALK (anaplastic lymphoma kinase) inhibitor for non-small cell lung cancer. After the acquisition, Brigatinib was granted marketing authorization by the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) in April 2017. ICLUSIG, a treatment for CML (chronic myeloid leukemia) and Philadelphia chromosome positive ALL (acute lymphoblastic leukemia), is commercialized globally (marketing rights of the product are out-licensed in some certain markets other than the US). These two targeted and innovative medicines, with cost synergies, are expected to be value drivers for Takeda's oncology business. Additionally, ARIAD has a robust early stage pipeline, and Takeda will leverage ARIAD's R&D capabilities and platform to generate immediate and long-term growth in the pharmaceutical business.

Irish Revenue Authority assessment
Shire received a tax assessment from the Irish Revenue Authority on November 28, 2018 for 398 million EUR. This assessment relates to a potential taxable gain from a 1,635 million USD break fee Shire received from AbbVie, Inc. ("AbbVie") in connection with the terminated offer to acquire Shire made by AbbVie in 2014. Takeda is currently in the appeal process with regards to this assessment as it does not believe a tax liability should arise from the break fee.
Milestone Payments
As discussed in Note 13, Takeda has certain contractual agreements related to the acquisition of intangible assets that require it to make payments of up to 517,017655,531 million JPY and 655,531823,927 million JPY as of March 31, 20182019 and 2019,2020, respectively. These commitments include development milestone payments in relation to R&D programs under development and expected maximum commercial milestone payments in relation to launched products. As for the programs under development, the possibility to meet certain conditions for commercial milestone payments is uncertain and the related commercial milestone payments were not included in the commitments.

Litigation
Takeda is involved in various legal and administrative proceedings. The most significant matters are described below.
Takeda may become involved in significant legal proceedings for which it is not possible to make a reliable estimate of the expected financial effect, if any, which may result from ultimate resolution of the proceedings. In these cases, appropriate disclosures about such cases would be included in this note, but no provision would be made for the cases.
With respect to each of the legal proceedings described below, other than those for which a provision has been made, Takeda is unable to make a reliable estimate of the expected financial effect at this stage. This is due to a number of factors, including, but not limited to, the stage of proceedings, the entitlement of parties to appeal a decision, if any, and lack of clarity as to the merits of theories of liability, the merits of Takeda’s defenses, the amount and recoverability of damages and/or governing law. The Company does not believe that information about the amount sought by the plaintiffs, if that is known, is, by itself, meaningful in every instance with respect to the outcome of those legal proceedings.
Legal expenses incurred and charges related to legal claims are recorded in selling, general and administrative expenses. Provisions are recorded, after taking appropriate legal and other specialist advice, where an outflow of resources is considered probable and a reliable estimate can be made of the likely outcome of the dispute. For certain product liability claims, Takeda will record a provision where there is sufficient history of claims made and settlements to enable management to make a reliable estimate of the provision required to cover unasserted claims. As of March 31, 2019,2020, Takeda’s aggregate provisions for legal and other disputes were 46,77549,711 million JPY. The ultimate liability for legal claims may vary from the amounts provided and is dependent upon the outcome of litigation proceedings, investigations and possible settlement negotiations. Unless otherwise stated below, Takeda is unable to predict the outcome or duration of these matters at this time.
Takeda’s position could change over time, and, therefore, there can be no assurance that any losses that result from the outcome of any legal proceedings will not exceed, by a material amount, the amount of the provisions reported in these consolidated financial statement.statements.
Certain of the matters discussed below were originally brought against Shire or its subsidiaries prior to Takeda’s acquisition of Shire. Refer to Note 31 on Business Combination for discussion of Takeda’s purchase accounting for the acquisition of Shire.
Product Liability and Related Claims
Pre-clinical and clinical trials are conducted during the development of potential products to determine the safety and efficacy of products for use by humans following approval by regulatory bodies. Notwithstanding these efforts, when drugs and vaccines are introduced into the marketplace, unanticipated safety issues may become, or be claimed by some to be, evident. Takeda is currently a defendant in a number of product liability lawsuits related to its products. For the product liability lawsuits and related claims, other than those for which a provision has been made, Takeda is unable to make a reliable estimate of the expected financial effect at this stage.
The Company’s principal pending legal and other proceedings are disclosed below. The outcomes of these proceedings are not always predictable and can be affected by various factors.

Product Liability Claims
Takeda has been named as a defendant in lawsuits in U.S. federal and state courts in which plaintiffs allege to have developed bladder cancer or other injuries as a result of taking products containing type 2 diabetes treatment pioglitazone (U.S. brand name ACTOS). Eli Lilly and Company ("Lilly"(“Lilly”), which co-promoted ACTOS in the United StatesU.S. for a period of time, also has been named as a defendant in many of these lawsuits. Under the parties’ co-promotion agreement, Takeda has agreed to defend and indemnify Lilly in the U.S. matters. Outside the U.S., lawsuits and claims have also been brought by persons claiming similar injuries.
In April 2015, Takeda reached an agreement with the lead plaintiffs’ lawyers that resolved the vast majority of ACTOS product liability lawsuits pending against Takeda and Lilly in the U.S. The settlement covered all bladder cancer claims pending in any U.S. court as of the date of settlement. Claimants with unfiled claims in the U.S. represented by counsel as of the date of settlement and within three days thereafter were also eligible to participate. The settlement became effective when 95% of litigants and claimants opted-in. In connection with this broad settlement, Takeda has paid 2.4 billion USD (approximately 288 billion JPY) into a qualified settlement fund. Takeda received insurance proceeds totaling approximately 58 billion JPY under various policies covering product liability claims against Takeda. Takeda also established provisions for the remaining ACTOS claims and lawsuits. Although Takeda subsequently received additional claims from plaintiffs not resolved by the 2015 settlement, nearly all of those claims have now been resolved.
In addition to remaining product liability
Economic Loss Cases
Takeda has been named in several other ACTOS-related lawsuits. The plaintiffs in these cases do not assert any claims the following lawsuitsfor personal injuries. Instead plaintiffs claim they suffered an economic loss by paying for ACTOS prescriptions that allegedly would not have been filedwritten had Takeda provided additional information about the alleged risks of bladder cancer associated with ACTOS. In the Painters’ Fund action, a putative class of third party payors brought suit against Takeda by public and private third-party payors, as well as consumers, seeking damagesin the U.S. District Court for alleged economic losses:

The States of Mississippi and Louisiana havealso filed lawsuits against Takeda and Lilly alleging that defendants did not warn about bladder cancer and other risks of ACTOS. The lawsuits seek reimbursement of the cost of ACTOS, paid by the states on behalf of patients through programs such as Medicaid, and for medical treatment of patients allegedly injured by ACTOS, attorneys’ fees and expenses, and punitive damages. The court granted
Takeda’s motion to dismiss the Louisiana case. The decision has been appealed. In November 2018, Takeda and Lilly agreed to settle the lawsuit brought by the State of Mississippi. TheIn September 2019, Takeda reached an agreement in principle to settle the lawsuit brought by the State of Louisiana remains pending.Louisiana.
Proton Pump Inhibitor (“PPI”) RelatedProduct Liability Claims
As of June 10, 2019March 31, 2020, approximately 6,0006,400 product liability lawsuits involvingrelated to the use of PREVACID and DEXILANT have been filed against Takeda in U.S. federal and state courts. TheMost of these cases are pending in U.S. federal lawsuitscourt and are consolidated for pre-trial proceedings in a multi-district litigation in federal court in New Jersey. The plaintiffs in these cases allege they developed kidney injuries as a result of taking PREVACID and/or DEXILANT, and that Takeda failed to adequately warn them of this potential risk. It remains unclear how many of the plaintiffs actually took PREVACID and/or DEXILANT. Similar cases are pending against other manufacturers of drugs in the same PPI class as Takeda’s products, including AstraZeneca plc (“AstraZeneca”), Procter & Gamble Company (“Procter & Gamble”) and Pfizer Inc. (“Pfizer”). Outside the U.S., three proposed class actions have been filed in three provinces in Canada (Quebec, Ontario, and Saskatchewan). The defendants in these actions include Takeda, AstraZeneca, Janssen Pharmaceutical Companies (“Janssen”) and several generic manufacturers. It is unclear how many additional actions, if any, may be filed against Takeda in the U.S., Canada or elsewhere.
ELAPRASE Product Liability Claims
In 2014, Shire’s Brazilian affiliate, Shire Farmaceutica Brasil Ltda, was served with a lawsuit brought by the State of Sao Paulo where the Brazilian Public Attorney’s office has intervened alleging that Shire would be obligated to supply ELAPRASE for an indefinite period at no cost to patients who participated in ELAPRASE clinical trials in Brazil, and seeking recoupment to the Brazilian government for amounts paid on behalf of these patients to date, and moral damages associated with these claims.
On May 6, 2016, the trial court judge ruled on the case and dismissed all the claims under the class action, which was appealed. On February 20, 2017, the Court of Appeals in Sao Paulo issued a decision upholding the decision rendered by the lower court judge, dismissing, therefore, all the claims under the class action.

The second class action was filed against Takeda alleging anticompetitive conduct to delay generic competition for ACTOS. In September 2015, the court granted defendants’ motions to dismiss the antitrust claims asserted by the end payors. The end payors appealed this decision to the Federal 2nd Circuit Court of Appeals. The wholesalers’ lawsuit had been stayed pending the appellate court’s decision in the end payors’ lawsuit.same court in April 2015 by a putative class of wholesalers that purchased ACTOS from Takeda. In February 2017, the appellate court reversed in part the dismissal of the end payors’ case and allowed one of plaintiffs’ antitrust theories to proceed in the trial court. Specifically, the court ruledboth actions, plaintiffs allege, inter alia, that plaintiffs sufficiently alleged that Takeda’s characterizations of twoTakeda improperly characterized certain patents for ACTOS in the FDA Orange Book, were false,which they claim imposed requirements on generic companies that filed Abbreviated New Drug Applications and, that thisin turn, resulted in delaying Teva’s launchdelayed market entry for generic forms of generic ACTOS.
