Mochida Pharmaceutical Group 1
Message from the President
The pharmaceutical industry’s operating environment remains harsh, due mainly
to the continued advance of various measures to restrain pharmaceutical
costs and intensified competition among domestic and overseas companies.
In addition, Japan’s National Health Insurance (NHI) revised drug prices in April
2010 and introduced a new drug pricing system on a trial basis, thereby further
spurring changes in the operating environment. Further, Japan’s economic
conditions were suddenly changed by the Great East Japan Earthquake of
March 11, 2011, and the pharmaceutical industry was severely affected.
To achieve steady growth while responding to such changes in the
operating environment, the Mochida Pharmaceutical Group placed priority
on establishing competitive businesses and business fields, emphasizing
partnerships, and thoroughly reviewing its resources, developing each business
under the basic policy of emphasizing profit and continued investment for
the future.
As a result, for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2011, we succeeded in
boosting net sales to ¥79,340 million, up 1.0% in comparison with the previous
year. Operating income fell 17.5%, to ¥11,509 million, and recurring income was
down 19.5%, to ¥12,017 million. Net income declined 46.0%, to ¥5,333 million ,
mostly because of the impact of the earthquake.
Business Overview for the Fiscal Year under Review
Pharmaceutical business segment sales rose at parent company Mochida Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd. on the
growth of Dinagest, an oral progestin for the treatment of endometriosis, and increased sales of generics,
despite the impact from large drug price reductions on our main products.
The recognition of our leading drug Epadel, a treatment for hyperlipidemia and arteriosclerosis
obliterans, is rising more and more following its inclusion in treatment guidelines based on the analytical
results of the Japan EPA Lipid Intervention Study (JELIS) large-scale clinical trial. We are now moving
forward with continued efforts to further increase the product value of Epadel. These include the launch of
clinical trials to gain an additional indication, and the submission of applications to make an Epadel-based
formulation available as a switch-OTC (over-the-counter) drug to meet self-medication demand. Sales of
Dinagest are expected to grow further because the drug is being well received by medical professionals,
and gaining support from patients as well.
In research and development, applications were filed for approval to use the condyloma acuminatum
therapeutic agent Beselna for the additional indication of actinic keratosis. We also initiated early Phase II
trials to confirm the effectiveness of Dinagest for the additional indication of uterine adenomyosis. Other
drugs are also steadily advancing through the development pipeline. We are taking on the challenge
of developing drugs in new fields, such as cellular-based drugs and therapeutic agents for intractable
diseases, while responding to biosimilars (follow-on biologics).
We received manufacturing and sales approval for the antidepressant Lexapro® (escitalopram), which
is expected to become a major new drug, in April 2011, and are working to launch sales within 2011.
Our subsidiary Mochida Pharmaceutical Plant Co., Ltd. (MPP) is advancing highly reliable
and efficient contract manufacturing of drugs using cutting-edge technologies and state-of-the-art
manufacturing facilities that comply with global standards to meet diverse customer needs.
Our subsidiary Mochida Healthcare Co., Ltd. (MHC) posted solid sales with contributions from
new products, despite the stagnant skin care market. MHC will continue to strengthen its ties with
2 Mochida Pharmaceutical Group
dermatologists, provide high-function skin care products based on dermatology, establish brands, and
further develop the skin care market.
Medium-Term Management Plan for Fiscal Years 2010 through 2012
The Mochida Pharmaceutical Group has drawn up a medium-term management plan covering the period
from the fiscal years 2010 through 2012.
Targets for FY2012 are net sales of ¥89,000 million, operating income of ¥13,500 million, and R&D
expenditures of ¥11,500 million. In order to respond to more difficult changes in the business environment
and to ensure continued profitable growth during the coming three years, starting in FY2010, we will
continue to work hard to promote further structural reform in areas including the improvement of head office
functions and the efficient management of the organization under the fundamental policy and aim to further
boost productivity through stronger cooperation and bonds among Group departments. Targeting, in the
long term, specialty pharmaceuticals that will be recognized for the value of their existence on a global
scale, we are pursuing investment in business activities that will lead to future competitiveness.
Furthermore, our core pharmaceutical business will focus its resources on the four major areas of
cardiovascular medicine, obstetrics and gynecology, dermatology, and emergency medicine so as to
further promote strategic alliances which stress the importance of lifecycle management and partnerships.
Furthermore, we will develop high-value-added products which meet the needs of medical professionals
as well as our customers by introducing and utilizing external technologies and technological seeds from
outside sources. We will also challenge new medical fields such as the development of therapeutic drugs
for intractable diseases and cellular pharmaceuticals and will embrace a commitment to biosimilars as well
as generic drugs. As a leader in the manufacture of ethyl icosapentate (EPA-E) preparations, we will work
toward having an Epadel-based drug offered as an OTC drug.
To Our Shareholders and Investors
The Mochida Pharmaceutical Group fulfills its social mission as a pharmaceutical company by creating
and supplying high-value-added products that meet customer needs based on its corporate philosophy
“Throughout the Company's history, it has stressed the importance of foresighted creativity to develop
unique products and technologies for the medical and pharmaceutical world, thereby contributing to the
improvement of human health” and we conduct our corporate activities with high ethical standards. We are
working to become a specialty pharmaceutical company whose presence is recognized worldwide, and to
boost corporate value over the long term.
We thank our shareholders and other stakeholders for your continuing support.

Overview of Performance
The Mochida Pharmaceutical Group (Mochida Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd. and its consolidated
subsidiaries) has been directing its efforts toward business reforms across all areas of management.
This entails improving the Group’s management system, achieving an appropriate level of staffing, and
increasing productivity throughout the Company.
In the pharmaceutical business, the Group has focused its resources on four major areas:
cardiovascular medicine, obstetrics and gynecology, dermatology, and emergency medicine. With the
aim of establishing itself as a specialty pharmaceutical company, the Group undertook an aggressive
campaign to disseminate academic information concerning mainstay and other products.
The Great East Japan Earthquake of March 11, 2011, struck the Head Office Plant of our
consolidated subsidiary Mochida Pharmaceutical Plant Co., Ltd. (Otawara, Tochigi Prefecture)
and caused major damages to production machinery and drug manufacturing building facilities.
Subsequent recovery works proceeded smoothly, though, and operations have resumed.
In the skin care business, the Group conducted business activities as an expert in basic
skin care products for sensitive skin, and worked to further cultivate the market by stepping up its
marketing activities.
As a result of these efforts, in the fiscal year ended March 31, 2011, the Mochida Pharmaceutical
Group realized consolidated net sales of ¥79,340 million, an increase of 1.0% from the previous year.
Individual Business Segments
In the pharmaceutical business segment, sales increased 0.8% year on year, to ¥75,642 million. While
sales of our major products Epadel, a treatment for hyperlipidemia and arteriosclerosis obliterans, and
Atelec®, a long-acting calcium channel blocker antihypertensive agent, declined as a result of NHI
drug price revisions, sales of Dinagest, an oral progestin for the treatment of endometriosis, steadily
increased, and sales of generics also rose.
In the skin care business segment, sales rose 4.9%, to ¥3,697 million, despite the sluggish
market, with increased sales of the Collage Furfur series of antifungal hair care and body care
products.
4 Mochida Pharmaceutical Group
Profit and Loss
Operating income dropped 17.5%, to ¥11,509 million, mostly because gross profits on sales declined
from NHI drug price revisions while R&D expenses increased. Recurring income fell 19.5%, to ¥12,017
million. Net income dropped 46.0%, to ¥5,333 million, mostly because of the extraordinary losses
posted from damages as a result of the Great East Japan Earthquake.
Research & Development
The Pharmaceutical Research Center continued to focus its efforts on two fields—chronic pain, and
diabetes and obesity—as it pursued the discovery and development of new and original therapeutic
drugs for the global market. The center works to improve the efficiency of research by conducting
joint research with Japanese and foreign organizations. The center is also actively working toward the
introduction of an antibody drug for the treatment of sepsis, a pain medication, and an antidiabetic
drug.
In clinical development, applications were filed for approval to use the condyloma acuminatum
therapeutic agent Beselna for the additional indication of actinic keratosis. We also initiated early
Phase II trials to confirm the effectiveness of Dinagest for the additional indication of uterine
adenomyosis.
Activities for other drugs advancing steadily through the development pipeline included Phase
III clinical trials for MD-0901, an agent to treat ulcerative colitis;Phase II/III clinical trials for MD-0701,
a treatment for pulmonary arterial hypertension; Phase II/III clinical trials on the biosimilar Granulocyte
Colony Stimulating Factor (G-CSF) FSK0808; Phase II clinical trials (in the United States) on Epadel as
a treatment for non-alcoholic steatohepatitis; and Phase I/II clinical trials for JR-031, a cellular-based
drug using human mesenchymal stem cells to treat graft versus host disease (GVHD).
Applications were also filed for the manufacture and sale of an Epadel-based formulation as a
switch-OTC drug.
We received manufacturing and sales approval for the antidepressant Lexapro® (escitalopram) in
April 2011.
We initiated joint Phase III clinical trials for the hypertension medication AJH801 (a combination
of cilnidipine and valsartan) together with Ajinomoto Pharmaceuticals Co., Ltd. in May 2011.
During the fiscal year under review, consolidated R&D expenditures totaled ¥11,642 million.

Rapid Development of New Medicines Used Worldwide
With its extensive technical resources and expertise, Mochida Pharmaceutical has established itself
as a leader in developing pharmaceuticals utilizing natural bioactive substances, with successes in the
development of Thrombin, Uronase, Miraclid, IFN Mochida, Epadel, and other products. To enable
more rapid development of medicines for use throughout the world, we are currently focusing on
research efforts in the fields of diabetes, obesity, and chronic pain, utilizing the latest in computer and
high-throughput screening techniques.
Overeating and sedentary lifestyles in developed countries have resulted in an accelerating
increase in the number of people suffering from metabolic syndrome and diabetes. Given that these
symptoms can ultimately lead to atherosclerotic disease, providing prevention and treatment methods
for obesity and diabetes is an important mission for a healthcare company.
Mochida is creating candidate substances for diabetes medicine, and introducing them worldwide.
Worldwide, 75−80 million people suffer from chronic pain; many of them reported that pain
had deleterious effects on their mental health, employment status, sleep, and personal relationships.
The impact of pain on patient QOL and the unmet needs in pain management were fully recognized
by physicians and healthcare companies. With an aging population and the simultaneous rise in the
conditions that lead to chronic pain, along with the need for better efficacy and safety profiles, new
therapeutics need to be developed.
Mochida Pharmaceutical is also conducting Phase I clinical trials on an oral transient receptor
potential vanilloid sub type 1 (TRPV1) receptor antagonist invented by Mochida Pharmaceutical as a
potential treatment for pain.
Extensive Links with Outside Research Organizations
We are introducing and utilizing new technologies to provide effective medicines for patients as quickly
as we can. Mochida Pharmaceutical has achieved many tangible results, not only in its in-house
research but also through joint research frameworks with external research organizations. These
include joint research with the Osaka Bioscience Institute on apoptosis (programmed physiological cell
death needed to remove unnecessary cells within the body). The research effort bore fruit in patents
on a Fas/Fas Ligand system, and Mochida Pharmaceutical is now licensing the patents to a number of
pharmaceutical companies. Such joint research with and connection to other research organizations is
seen as critical in increasing the pace at which medicines are created.
As a member of the Pharmaceutical Consortium for Protein Structure Analysis, Mochida
Pharmaceutical has since 2002 utilized “SPring-8,” a large-scale synchrotron radiation facility that
operates at the world’s highest level of performance, to analyze the three-dimensional structure of
target molecules and data on the bonding of therapeutic agents and their target. In addition, we are
working to lay the foundation for boosting the probability of successful drug discovery, primarily by
improving the environment for the usage of advanced research facilities in cooperation with academia
through the Consortium.
Epadel: The Outcome of Foresighted, Innovative Research
A drug that epitomizes the unique and innovative strengths of Mochida Pharmaceutical’s R&D
capabilities is Epadel, a drug for hyperlipidemia and arteriosclerosis obliterans. Epadel is the world’s
first high-purity ethyl icosapentate (EPA-E). Working in cooperation with Nippon Suisan, Mochida
Pharmaceutical made a historical breakthrough by turning purified EPA-E into a pharmaceutical. A
global epidemiological study on the relationship between diet and disease has found that people who
consume EPA as part of their diet are much less likely to suffer from such diseases as high blood
pressure and arteriosclerosis-induced myocardial infarction than those who do not consume EPA.
Mochida Pharmaceutical Group 9
Production
Unrivaled Commitment
to Quality
A company operating in the pharmaceutical field must
have advanced technological capabilities, not just
in R&D but in the manufacturing process as well. While coordinating personnel,
facilities, and technology of a high level, Mochida Pharmaceutical Plant Co., Ltd.
(MPP) ensures hierarchical control over manufacturing and quality, from individual
processes to the overall procedures. This is intrinsic to a quality assurance system
designed to ensure that only products of outstanding quality leave the company.
MPP takes a proactive approach to achieving superior quality in all aspects of
operations. It is an approach that demonstrates the company’s indomitable spirit
of originality and research based on a strong vision of the future.
10 Mochida Pharmaceutical Group
State-of-the-Art Manufacturing and Quality Control
In addition to efficacy and safety, high quality is essential to pharmaceutical products, which directly
impact life and health. MPP ensures strict adherence to the quality standards on which marketing
approval is based. It is by observing Good Manufacturing Practice (GMP) that the Company’s
pharmaceutical manufacturing unit has achieved high levels in both manufacturing and quality control.
MPP’s basic approach and a prerequisite for all manufacturing is to introduce products of superior
quality to the market. While ensuring that each employee operates within the scope of these rules,
MPP still maintains it own unique approach and continues to find new ways to achieve better quality.
Utilizing the Latest Advances in “Hardware” and Technology
The Head Office Plant (Otawara) manufactures injectable, solid (oral), and topical medicines.
Conforming to FDA and EMA quality control standards, all phases of production at the Injectable
Medicines building, from receipt of raw materials to the shipping of final products, are managed with
computer systems. MPP utilizes this exacting production system in the manufacture of enzyme,
protein, and biological products and other injectable drugs, processes which require the highest levels
of technology. MPP’s flexible production system further enhances stability in production to cover the
variable order sizes in contract manufacturing, including orders for oral and topical medicines. We
are also actively working to improve packaging technology to prevent misuse of drugs and increase
conformity with universal design.
Extensive Experience in the Development and Manufacture of New Medicines
As a manufacturer working in the development of new medicines, MPP has vast experience in scaling
up manufacturing of products, both those developed in-house as well as through technology transfer,
and has the ability to consult on matters such as industrialization and large-scale production. In
addition, MPP can assist clients investigating any stage of production, from development to contract
manufacturing, applying the Company’s experience in research, development, and pharmaceutical
affairs to provide support in establishing efficient manufacturing processes.
Giving Careful Consideration to Environmental Protection
MPP’s commitment to protecting natural resources, maintaining natural beauty, and preserving the
environment around us is not only a fundamental aspect of the company’s corporate activities, it is
based on the company’s wish to contribute responsibly in its dealings with the larger community. As
part of this awareness, in all its production activities, MPP places great emphasis on careful selection
of raw materials for products, reduction of the
amount of packaging used, and safe and proper
disposal of waste. In recognition of these efforts, in
March 2002 the Head Office Plant (Otawara) was
awarded ISO 14001 certification by the International
Standards Organization for its environmental
management system. This plant, which used heavy
oil as fuel, switched to liquefied natural gas (LNG)
and electricity in March 2009, in an effort to further
reduce the amount of carbon dioxide emissions.

Pharmaceuticals That Contribute to the
Communities in Which We Live
A pharmaceutical company’s work does not
end when the product is successfully launched.
Drugs must be used properly in order to be
fully effective. This means that there must be a
process for providing appropriate information
on drugs to medical institutions, for collecting
feedback from the institutions once the drugs are
in use, and for informing the various institutions
of the Company’s evaluations and responses on
key issues. Mochida Pharmaceutical sees this
type of information-disseminating activity as a
way to further contribute to society.

Key Therapeutic Areas
Producing Products with Beneficial Effects Tailored to Specific Fields
•Cardiovascular medicine
Epadel is the first drug in the world in which EPA-E (ethyl icosapentate: one of the poly-unsaturated fatty
acids contained in fish oil) was successfully extracted and purified to a high degree. This drug has opened
up a new field in the treatment for arteriosclerosis obliterans and hyperlipidemia. Atelec®, a calcium channel
blocker that is presently considered the first choice for the treatment of high blood pressure, begins to work
gradually in the morning and has a long-acting effect on lowering blood pressure during the day. Atelec® is a
dual L/N type calcium channel blocker which, unlike regular L type channel blockers, has the unique property
of also providing a renoprotective effect. Rocornal has a track record of more than 20 years of achievement in
the cardiovascular field, and has established itself firmly as a treatment drug for angina pectoris.
•Obstetrics and Gynecology
Mochida Pharmaceutical has traditionally placed strong emphasis on the Ob/Gyn area, where it has built
an impressive record with hormonal preparations and pregnancy test kits. Estriel is widely recognized for
the treatment of post menopausal disorders, vaginitis, and geriatric osteoporosis. Some other examples
are Mochida Pharmaceutical’s Ortho® 777-21 and Ortho® M-21, a low-dose triphasic oral contraceptive and
a low-dose monophasic oral contraceptive, and Grandaxin, which has been used for autonomic dystonia,
a common symptom of menopausal syndrome. The launch of Dinagest, a novel oral progestin, in January
2008 has expanded medication for patients suffering from endometriosis, in addition to Suprecur®, a GnRH
analogue.The Company is presently conducting clinical trials on Dinagest to confirm its effectiveness for
treating uterine adenomyosis as an additional indication.
Epadel (ethyl icosapentate)
Epadel is the world’s first ethical drug
containing high-purity ethyl icosapentate
extracted from fish oil. It is used for treating
arteriosclerosis obliterans and hyperlipidemia.
A capsule formulation, seamless capsule, was
added in 1999.
Atelec® (cilnidipine)
Atelec® is a dual L/N type calcium channel blocker
with a long-acting hypotensive effect that also
provides a renoprotective effect.
Rocornal (trapidil)
Rocornal, a coronary vasodilator, has enjoyed
a firm reputation since its launch in Japan in
1979, as a drug for angina pectoris.
Ortho® 777-21 and Ortho® M-21
(norethisterone, ethinylestradiol)
Ortho® 777-21 is a low-dose triphasic oral
contraceptive. Ortho® M-21 is a low-dose
monophasic oral contraceptive.
Suprecur® (buserelin)
Suprecur®, a GnRH analogue, is used for
treating endometriosis, precocious puberty, and
uterine myoma. Nasal spray and micro particle
injection are available.
Dinagest (dienogest)
Dinagest is a novel and oral therapeutic agent
for endometriosis that activates selectively
progesterone receptors, and demonstrates its
therapeutic effect by inhibiting ovarian function
and proliferation of endometrial cells.

•Dermatology
Florid®, an antimycotic drug, is a leading product in this area. Mochida Pharmaceutical provides the
topical formulation for dermatomycosis. Arasena-A is the first antiviral drug for the topical treatment
of herpes zoster and herpes simplex to be developed in Japan. Beselna was launched in December
2007 as the first therapeutic agent for condyloma acuminatum (external genital and perianal warts) in
Japan, which gives patients a new treatment option other than surgical therapies.The Company has
applied for approval to use Beselna for the additional indication of actinic keratosis.
•Emergency Medicine
Miraclid has demonstrated excellent clinical efficacy as a drug for treatment of acute circulatory failure caused
by shock, and acute pancreatitis. This drug represents the first commercial application of ulinastatin, which
inhibits various enzyme activities. It reflects Mochida Pharmaceutical’s advanced technological capabilities
in the development of new biologically active agents. Thrombin, a hemostatic agent, and Novo-Heparin, an
anticoagulant agent, are also indispensable drugs to emergency medical care.
Florid® (miconazole)
Florid®-F injection is an antimycotic drug
for treating systemic mycosis. An oral gel
formulation was launched, expanding the
indications to include candidiasis of the oral
cavity and esophagus. Other formulations
include a vaginal suppository and a cream.
Arasena-A (vidarabine)
Arasena-A, an antiviral agent, is used for
treating herpes zoster, herpes simplex, and
herpes simplex encephalitis. Arasena-A
Ointment is the first topical antiviral drug
developed in Japan. Other formulation includes
a cream.
Beselna (imiquimod)
Beselna is the first therapeutic agent for
condyloma acuminatum (external genital and
perianal warts) in Japan.
Miraclid (ulinastatin)
Miraclid, a multivalent enzyme inhibitor,
represents the first ethical drug using ulinastatin
purified from human urine. Its indications are
acute circulatory failure and acute pancreatitis.
Liquid Thrombin MOCHIDA Softbottle
(thrombin)
These new concertina-shaped soft bottles
are designed not only to greatly improve
convenience of application, but also to prevent
fatal medical accidents caused by possible
inadvertent injection of the agent.
Novo-Heparin Injection (heparin sodium)
Novo-Heparin Injection, an anticoagulant
derived from porcine intestinal mucosa, is
indicated for the treatment of disseminated
intravascular coagulation syndrome, and
prevention of thromboembolism.

•Psychiatry
The antidepressant Lexapro® (escitalopram), which is scheduled to go on sale in 2011, is a selective
serotonoin reuptake inhibitor (SSRI). Lexapro® is used in over 100 countries worldwide, and has been
highly evaluated overseas as an antidepressant that provides the best possible balance between
efficacy and acceptability. Lexapro® is expected to be well received in Japan as a new treatment
option. With the addition of Lexapro® to our tetracyclic antidepressant Tecipul and our autonomic
dystonia drug Grandaxin, Mochida Pharmaceutical is commited to improving the QOL for psychiatric
patients.
•Diagnostic Reagents
In the field of diagnostic reagents, Mochida Pharmaceutical pioneered immunological diagnostics in
Japan, and developed Gonavis, the nation’s first pregnancy test kit. Since the launch of Gonavis, the
Company has developed a number of products with its own technologies and through joint research
and/or technology transfer with leading overseas companies. Our product lineup includes Gonastick W,
a one-step, stick-type pregnancy test kit; and CanD-Tec, a candida antigen detection test.
Lexapro® (escitalopram)
Lexapro® selectively inhibits the reuptake of
serotonin and has an antidepressant effect. It
provides the best possible balance between
efficacy and acceptability as a first-line therapy
in the treatment of depression.
Grandaxin (tofisopam)
Grandaxin relieves various symptoms
caused by tension imbalances between the
sympathetic and para-sympathetic nervous
systems. It has proved effective in treating a
variety of stress-induced ailments.
Gonastick W
Gonastick W is a pregnancy test kit that
employs immunochromatography, enabling
one-step qualitative detection of human
chorionic gonadotrophin (hCG) at two levels:
higher than 25 IU/L and higher than 1,000 IU/L.
•The Prominence of EBM
Evidence-based medicine (EBM) has become a topic of increasing importance. Mochida
Pharmaceutical has participated in a large-scale clinical trial, the Japan EPA Lipid Intervention Study
(JELIS), investigating whether Epadel can prevent cardiovascular events in hyperlipidemic patients.
In November 2005, the test results were presented in a late-breaking clinical trials session at the
American Heart Association (AHA)’s Scientific Sessions 2005; results showing Epadel significantly
suppressed onset of major coronary events received much attention from experts in the field.
The high regard in which the efficacy of Epadel is held was confirmed in March 2007, when
the study results were presented in the eminent British medical journal, The Lancet (2007, Vol. 369,
pp. 1090–1098). Epadel was also recommended as a pharmaceutical treatment in the guidelines for
treating atherosclerosis issued by the Japan Atherosclerosis Society in April 2007. A stream of useful
information is being derived from JELIS. Utilizing these results, Mochida Pharmaceutical will provide
beneficial and high-quality information to medical experts.

Skin Care Products
Providing Truly
Useful Skin Care Products
In 2004, Mochida’s Skin Care Product Division was
spun off as Mochida Healthcare Co., Ltd. (MHC),
which undertakes the development, production,
and marketing of skin care products.
Employing its extensive expertise acquired
in the development of pharmaceuticals, MHC
specializes in areas of dermatology such as care
for sensitive skin, antimicrobial personal care,
baby care, and nursing products. To ensure that
we provide products for our customers that are
truly useful, we support the development process
with clinical trials in close collaboration with
dermatologists. Our products are sold at specialty
pharmacies and drugstores.

Based on Dermatological Research
Truly Essential Products
MHC’s mission is to develop useful products that benefit the community. The Company has extended
its lineup of healthcare products to include various fields related to medicine. MHC’s skin care
products are created to meet real requirements and are based on close cooperation with medical
professionals. The basic prerequisites are that they should be useful and functional.
S-Collagen, a First in Domestic Skin Care Products
MHC’s foresight and originality are evident in the development of the Collage series,
the nation’s first skin care products, containing natural soluble collagen (S-Collagen).
After many years of research based on dermatological science, the Company has
succeeded in developing the Collage S series using “trimethylglycine” to achieve
further improvement of the moisturizing activity of the original Collage series. As
with the original Collage series, Collage S products do not contain fragrances or
coloring agents, so even customers with the most delicate skin can use them
with confidence.
The Company has also responded to the needs of customers with particularly
sensitive skin types who wish to use a whitening treatment. It has developed the
Collage Whitening series, Japan’s first hypoallergenic whitening series for sensitive
skin types. It also began sales of Collage White Peel, a face wash that utilizes the
power of enzymes to exfoliate dead skin cells. The Company is focusing on product
development that responds to changing customer needs. For example, it has
released a hypoallergenic soap series, which provides a choice of products suited
to a range of skin types and uses.
Medically Based Technology and Experience
MHC’s dermatological products, including Collage soap, a non-irritating soap
formulated for each specific skin type, and the Collage D series, moisturizing
products for dry skin, enjoy a high reputation among consumers for their
effectiveness. The Company provides customers suffering from dandruff and itchy
scalp with Collage Furfur, the first shampoo in Japan containing an antimycotic
agent. MHC now also provides an antibacteriological series, with hair conditioner and
liquid soap in addition to shampoo. Through these products, MHC will continue to
better the QOL for people with skin problems.
Collage S series
Collage Whitening series
From Baby Care to Geriatric Care
In the field of baby care products, Skina Babe, having the biggest share in baby
bath oil, has continued to protect infants’ skin since it was introduced 40 years
ago. From these early days, MHC has also been developing products for senior
citizens, and these will become even more necessary in the future. The Company
markets Skina Fukifuki and Skina Clen, skin cleansing and bed bath products, and
Skina Dry Shampoo, a foam-type hair shampoo that eliminates the need for rinsing.
These products contribute to the betterment of nursing care for the bedridden. The
Company aims to continue developing products that will be beneficial to the skin
care of every generation.

Basic Policy on Corporate Governance
The Mochida Pharmaceutical Group strives to increase its corporate value by placing the fulfillment
of corporate governance and the reinforcement of compliance at the axis of its overall Group
management, to better respond to its stakeholders’ trust and expectations.
As part of measures for fulfilling corporate governance, important management decisions
are made at meetings of the Board of Executive Managing Directors and the Board of Group
Management, which are held weekly respectively, based on the outcome of sufficient discussions
at the Management Policy Meeting. We clearly separate the functions of the Board of Directors
into management decision-making and the supervision of business operations. For the purpose of
expediting management decision-making and business operations, the Group has introduced an
Executive Director (Officer) system.
Governance Structure
Mochida Pharmaceutical put in place the Board of Directors (including Outside Directors) and
the Board of Statutory Auditors (including Outside Statutory Auditors) as organizations under the
Companies Act.

Compliance Promotion
As reasons for adopting this governance structure, considering the Company’s size and
business nature, we judged that at this point in time, the most suitable governance structure (1) to
ensure the appropriate function of checking the management and (2) to pursue management efficiency
simultaneously requires: (1) management decision-making by the Board of Directors with a reasonable
number of members, comprising Inside Directors with thorough knowledge of the Company and its
business and Outside Directors with abundant knowledge and experience in specialized fields, and (2)
the system for checking the management by Statutory Auditors including Outside Statutory Auditors.
Internal Control System, Risk Management System, Compliance System, and CSR
The Mochida Pharmaceutical Group constructs, maintains, and evaluates its internal control system
based on resolutions by the Board of Directors under the Companies Act and on the Financial
Instruments and Exchange Act. Specifically, we maintain a companywide risk management system
based on the “Mochida Pharmaceutical Group Risk Management Rules” to manage major risks
affecting our overall business, as part of our internal control system based on the Companies Act.
As measures for reinforcing compliance, we maintain our compliance system by (1) establishing
“Code of Conduct of Mochida Pharmaceutical Group”, (2) holding regular meetings of the Ethics
Committee which includes outside experts, (3) establishing the Corporate Ethics Promotion
Department etc.; and we run regular training programs on compliance for our group employees.
The Mochida Pharmaceutical Group will continue striving to ensure full compliance, and to respond
promptly to various environmental changes, by receiving appropriate advice from our attorneys and
Accounting Auditor as necessary etc.
While the concerned departments are earnestly addressing Corporate Social Responsibility
(CSR), we have also established the CSR Promotion Liaison Committee as a basic body to promote
CSR throughout the Mochida Pharmaceutical Group and to meet more precisely the social demands.
Audit Structure
Mochida Pharmaceutical has established the Internal Audit Department as an organization which
implements internal audits of the Pharmaceutical Business (Sales) Division, Research Division and
other divisions as necessary.
To secure lawfulness and transparency of management decision-making and business
operations, in accordance with fiscal year auditing policy and plans, each Statutory Auditor strives
to (1) smoothly communicate with Board Directors, the Internal Audit Department etc., (2) collect
the relevant information and (3) improve the auditing environments, attends meetings of the Board
of Directors and other important meetings, and investigates business operations and assets at
the headquarters, main business offices and subsidiaries of Mochida Pharmaceutical—including
supervision and verification of the status of the internal control system, the independence of
the Accounting Auditor and the appropriate execution of audits by the Accounting Auditor.
Mochida Pharmaceutical is also audited by our Accounting Auditor, Deloitte Touche Tohmatsu
LLC, based on the provisions of the Companies Act and the Financial Instruments and Exchange
Act. the Internal Audit Department, Statutory Auditors and Accounting Auditor work closely to secure
effectiveness of the audits.
