Chief Executive Officer's statement
We are pleased to present the Company's results for the six months ended 30 September 2010.
Background
The Company is a globally-focused biopharmaceutical company, specialising in the development and manufacture of high-quality, cost-effective treatments for some of the world's most serious diseases. Since February 2007, the Company has been a subsidiary of Reliance Life Sciences. The Company is working towards the development, manufacture and marketing of a portfolio of biosimilar recombinant therapeutic proteins for global markets.
Business overview
The development programme for Erythropoietin (EPO) is in its final phase. The Company is pleased to announce that it has submitted an application to the European Medicine Agency for authority to market EPO in Europe. The Company has deferred its Granulocyte Colony Stimulating Factor (G-CSF) development programme in view of this greater focus on the EPO programme and also to conserve its cash resources. The Company continues to supply EPO to the Indian market and is in the process of registering EPO in a number of other international markets.
Financial review
Operating losses of EUR1.04 million for the period (2009: EUR1.34 million) are in line with budget and reflect planned expenditure. The Company continues to exercise a strict control on costs and to optimise management of its cash flow.
During the period the Company capitalised development expenditure of EUR1.27 million (2009: EUR1.92 million) incurred on the EPO development programme. Current assets and current liabilities are in line with the level of operations of the Company. Although the overall economic environment in Ireland remains very challenging, the Company has been able to sustain its product development programmes because of the financial support that continues to be received from Reliance Life Sciences.
