`Core Value
`
`Tenki ni sanyo suru 1
`
`We think carefully about what is essential,
`decide clearly what we should do, and act quickly.
`
`By focusing our efforts on ophthalmology and
`related areas, we develop scientific knowledge
`and organizational capabilities which are
`unique and original to Santen. We use our
`unique capabilities to contribute to patients
`and their loved ones, and consequently to
`society.
`
`1. Santen’s original interpretation of a passage from chapter 22 of Zhongyong (The Doctrine
`of the Mean) by Confucius, meaning “exploring the secrets and mechanisms of nature in
`order to contribute to people’s health.”
`
`Santen’s Values embody what the Company has continued to recognize as
`
`important since its foundation in 1890. Based on Santen’s Values— the
`
`essence of which is “tenki ni sanyo suru”—we have put in place a virtuous
`
`cycle of creation and innovation while contributing to the protection and
`
`improvement of eyesight and health as a specialty company in the ophthalmic
`
`and anti-rheumatic fields. Building on the scientific knowledge and organiza-
`
`tional capabilities that Santen has nurtured for over 120 years, the Company
`
`will continue to contribute to society, working primarily for the benefit of
`
`patients and their loved ones.

`Santen’s Strategic Vision and Strengths
`
`Strategic Vision
`Santen is working to become a special-
`ized pharmaceutical company with a
`global presence, in order to realize its
`long-term strategic vision through 2020.
`The first step was our Fiscal 2011-2013
`Medium-Term Management Plan, which
`stipulated the plan’s period as the time
`for making investments for medium- and
`long-term growth, and during which we
`took a variety of steps such as the
`promotion of globally oriented research
`and development. The next step is our
`newly formulated Fiscal 2014-2017
`Medium-Term Management Plan, which
`calls for two strategies of ongoing
`product launches and the achievement
`of growth and profitability in Asia and
`Europe. At Santen, we are working
`across the organization to drive our
`business forward, capitalizing on our
`strengths to maintain market leadership.

`¥127,396million
`・Domestic sales of prescription ophthalmic pharmaceuticals improved

`while focusing on the market penetration of new drugs.
`Overseas Operations
`・Overseas sales of prescription ophthalmic pharmaceutical sales increased 43.5%
`year on year (up 28.9% on a 12-month basis), reflecting progress in the market

`Fiscal 2013 Overview
`
`We posted record net sales.
`We expanded our presence further in both the Japanese
`and overseas markets, thanks to our focus on sales promotion
`activities for key products, including new products.

`treatment for dry eye. We also met the primary endpoint of
`a Global Phase 3 study of DE-109 (sirolimus) for the
`treatment of non-infectious uveitis of the posterior segment.
`This study is being carried out at approximately 150 sites in
`Europe, the U.S. and Asia.
`Furthermore, in May 2014, we entered into an agreement
`with U.S.-based Merck & Co., Inc. to purchase Merck’s
`ophthalmology products in Japan, Europe and Asia Pacific.
`Through these initiatives, we intend to enhance our range of
`glaucoma and ocular hypertension treatment products, with
`the aim of improving patient’s quality of life (QOL). At the
`same time, we are convinced that we can accelerate our
`progress toward realizing our long-term strategic vision.

`
`Enhancing Shareholder Returns
`Santen has positioned the stable return of profits to
`shareholders as a key management priority.
`For fiscal 2013, we paid a full-year dividend of ¥100 per
`share, the same amount as for the previous fiscal year. This
`resulted in a dividend payout ratio of 48.2%. Going forward,
`we remain committed to the stable return of profits to
`shareholders. At the same time, we will continue to retain
`funds primarily for R&D investments, while adopting a
`flexible stance that includes the acquisition of treasury stock.
`
`Fiscal 2013, the fiscal year ended March 31, 2014, was the
`final year of the Fiscal 2011-2013 Medium-Term Manage-
`ment Plan. During fiscal 2013, net sales rose 24.9% year on
`year to a record ¥148.7 billion. This result reflected
`significant sales growth in both the Japanese and overseas
`markets. Operating income was up 11.1% to ¥27.4 billion
`and net income rose 3.6% to ¥17.1 billion.
`In the domestic prescription ophthalmic business, we
`saw steady growth in sales of key products such as our
`glaucoma and ocular hypertension treatments Tapros
`(tafluprost) and Cosopt (dorzolamide hydrochloride/timolol
`maleate), as well as our dry eye treatment Diquas
`(diquafosol sodium). Launched in Japan in November 2012,
`the intravitreal VEGF inhibitor EYLEA (aflibercept [genetical
`recombination]) continued to grow rapidly, contributing
`immensely to sales. The anti-allergy ophthalmic solution
`Alesion (epinastine hydrochloride), which was launched in
`Japan in November 2013, is steadily penetrating the
`market. In the overseas business, Santen posted higher
`sales of the glaucoma and ocular hypertension treatment
`Taflotan (tafluprost, sold as Tapros in Japan), one of its
`growth drivers. Taflotan is now available in more than 60
`countries worldwide1.
`Turning to R&D, under a new framework aimed at
`strengthening global R&D capabilities, we are working to
`create highly competitive new products based on the
`medical needs of the world’s patients. In December 2013,
`we applied in Europe for marketing approval of Ikervis
`(generic name: ciclosporin, development name: Cyclokat), a

`

`Summary of the Fiscal 2011–2013 Medium-Term Management Plan
`By steadily executing our growth strategy based on Santen’s Values,
`we accelerated our progress toward realizing our long-term strategic vision.
`
`Santen positioned fiscal 2011 to fiscal 2013 as a period to
`invest in growth. We steadily implemented a number of
`measures to bring our business strategies to fruition.
`Notably, we actively invested in R&D to accelerate the
`creation of new products, enhance our competitiveness in
`Europe and Asia, and spur growth in our business in Japan.
`With the aim of making an even greater contribution to
`patients worldwide, we put a global manufacturing system in
`place while pursuing efficiency. We also made tremendous
`progress on building a stronger organization and developing
`human resources. Both of these initiatives will enable us to
`realize our long-term strategic vision.
`Santen made a Company-wide effort to pursue business
`activities aimed at achieving sustained growth. As a result,
`we delivered significantly higher net sales than our target in
`the previous medium-term management plan. On the other
`hand, operating income and net income were both below
`target, mainly due to the impact of upfront investments
`primarily in R&D. This included the acquisition of Santen
`
`S.A.S. of France (formerly Novagali Pharma S.A.S.). Building
`on the results of the previous medium-term management
`plan, Santen intends to execute new business strategies
`with the aim of becoming a specialized pharmaceutical
`company with a global presence.

`Formulation of the Fiscal 2014-2017 Medium-Term Management Plan
`
`We will further sharpen our competitiveness as a specialty company
`by achieving ongoing product launches, along with growth and
`improved profitability in Asia and Europe.
`
`President and CEO’s Message
`
`Santen has formulated the Fiscal 2014-2017 Medium-Term
`Management Plan, with a view toward realizing its long-term
`strategic vision through 2020 of becoming a specialized
`pharmaceutical company with a global presence. A set of
`strategic goals have been formulated in the new plan. Among
`such goals are the drastic reform of Santen’s research and
`development system to enable sustainable development of
`new products, accelerated business operations in the Asian
`market that is expected to grow rapidly, business expansion
`and early improvement of earnings in Europe where Santen
`has been solidifying its business foundation. In doing so,
`
`Santen aims to achieve a compound annual growth rate
`(CAGR) of 8%. In addition, the Company will focus on human
`resources development and establishment of a solid organi-
`zational structure aimed at achieving sustainable growth.
`By making a Company-wide effort to implement this
`medium-term strategy, Santen will ensure steady progress on
`the five policies toward achieving its long-term strategic
`vision. Santen has set the goal of becoming one of the top
`three ophthalmic pharmaceutical companies in the world by
`2020, a goal the Company has prescribed under its long-term
`strategic vision.

`R&D Strategy
`
`Domestic Business Strategy
`
`・Ensure the launch of existing products in the
`pipeline and improve productivity.
`・Enhance the pipeline for differentiated products
`based on customer needs.
`
`・Achieve business growth by contributing to the
`treatment of patients with new products and
`innovative services.
`
`In R&D, Santen is working to ensure commercialization of
`products under development and further strengthen product
`pipelines for sustainable growth in order to rapidly develop
`differentiated products that satisfy unmet medical needs.
`In particular, Santen will concentrate on fields that make
`the most of the Company’s strengths, primarily in the fields
`of dry eye, glaucoma, and retinal disorders. Furthermore,
`Santen seeks to increase the probability of success for
`products in late-stage clinical development by promoting
`“Network Product Development1,” which actively utilizes
`compounds and technologies available outside the
`Company, and by stepping up translational research2.
`Moreover, we plan to continue implementing life cycle
`management3, in order to maximize the value of our existing
`products. Looking ahead, we will continue to strengthen
`coordination between our R&D bases in Japan, the U.S.
`and Europe, as we endeavor to accelerate global clinical
`development and improve productivity.
`
`1. An approach of proactively utilizing compounds and technologies available outside
`the Company in product development.
`2. Multi-disciplinary research that links basic research, clinical research, and medical
`examinations and utilizes the findings from this for effective and efficient practical
`applications to contribute to healthcare development.
`3. Aligning one compound to treatment needs over the long term and augmenting
`through additional indication, dosage, formulation and combination products to
`increase product value.

`
`¥205billion
`
`In the prescription pharmaceutical business, Santen will
`promote reforms to build an even stronger sales organiza-
`tion as it works to increase the market penetration of new
`products. Meanwhile, Santen has fully entered the field of
`back-of-the-eye diseases, where there are substantial
`unmet medical needs.
`Guided by the new medium-term management plan,
`Santen will endeavor to enhance competitive advantages
`by maximizing values of new products such as Tapros,
`Diquas and EYLEA. The Company also aims to attain
`sustainable business growth and maintain a strong
`business presence in the domestic market by enhancing its
`ability to respond to unmet medical needs. It also seeks to
`achieve business growth by strengthening coordination
`among the prescription pharmaceutical, OTC and medical
`devices business categories by taking advantage of its
`strength as a specialized pharmaceutical company with a
`strong presence in Japan.
