Rohto Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd. is a major player in the pharmaceutical industry, primarily involved in manufacturing and selling healthcare and skincare products both in Japan and internationally. The company is known for its innovative approach and commitment to improving well-being across global markets.
In its latest financial report for the third quarter ending December 31, 2024, Rohto Pharmaceutical Co. reported a notable increase in net sales, reaching 225,895 million yen, marking a 12.3% year-on-year growth. However, the company’s profits took a hit due to rising costs, with operating income decreasing by 8.5% and ordinary income by 10.4% compared to the previous year.
Key highlights from the report indicate robust sales performance in Japan, driven by new product launches and increased inbound demand. Internationally, sales in the Americas and Asia saw significant growth, aided by strategic acquisitions such as Eu Yan Sang International Ltd. and Mono chem-pharm Produkte GmbH. Despite these gains, higher costs in research and development and increased selling expenses impacted overall profitability.
Looking ahead, Rohto Pharmaceutical maintains its full-year forecast, anticipating an 18.2% increase in net sales and a 7.9% rise in operating income. The company remains focused on expanding its global footprint and enhancing its product offerings, aiming to achieve long-term growth and value creation.
