Revenue
Revenue for the nine-month period ended December 31, 2025 was JPY 3,411.2 billion (JPY -117.0 billion and -3.3% AER, -2.8% CER). The decline compared to the same period of the previous fiscal year was primarily attributable to a decrease in revenue in Neuroscience, one of our six key business areas. The decrease in Neuroscience was largely attributable to the continued impact from generic erosion of VYVANSE (for attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (“ADHD”)) in the U.S. Revenue steadily increased in our key business areas of Gastroenterology (“GI”), Plasma-Derived Therapies (“PDT”), Oncology and Vaccines, with a slight decline in revenue for Rare Diseases. Certain products faced headwinds due to the impact of the Medicare Part D redesign and 340B program expansion in the U.S., while there was stable demand in other regions and for other products. Revenue outside of our six key business areas was JPY 161.4 billion (JPY -29.5 billion and -15.4% AER, -16.6% CER).

Year-on-year change in revenue for this nine-month period in each of our business areas was primarily attributable to the following products:
GI
In GI, revenue was JPY 1,078.6 billion (JPY +39.3 billion and +3.8% AER, +4.6% CER).
Sales of ENTYVIO (for ulcerative colitis (“UC”) and Crohn’s disease (“CD”)) were JPY 744.5 billion (JPY +45.5 billion and +6.5% AER, +7.4% CER). Sales in the U.S. were JPY 494.8 billion (JPY +18.8 billion and +4.0% AER). The increase was due to growth of the subcutaneous formulation, partially offset by unfavorable foreign exchange rates against the U.S. dollar. Sales in Europe and Canada were JPY 188.3 billion (JPY +18.5 billion and +10.9% AER). The increase was primarily due to continued patient gains through an increased use of the subcutaneous formulation, accompanied by favorable foreign exchange rates against the Euro.
Sales of RESOLOR/MOTEGRITY (for chronic idiopathic constipation) were JPY 5.7 billion (JPY -11.3 billion and -66.2% AER, -65.8% CER). The decrease was primarily due to the impact of multiple generic entrants in the U.S. beginning in January 2025.
Rare Diseases
In Rare Diseases, revenue was JPY 574.5 billion (JPY -4.6 billion and -0.8% AER, -0.6% CER).
Sales of ADVATE (for hemophilia A) were JPY 79.3 billion (JPY -7.6 billion and -8.7% AER, -8.4% CER). The decrease was primarily due to competitive pressure in the U.S.
Sales of ADYNOVATE/ADYNOVI (for hemophilia A) were JPY 43.7 billion (JPY -6.6 billion and -13.2% AER, -12.9% CER). The decrease was primarily due to competitive pressure in the U.S.
3
Takeda Pharmaceutical Company Limited (4502)
Earnings Report (Kessan Tanshin) for the Nine-month
Period Ended December 31, 2025 (Consolidated)
Sales of ELAPRASE (for Hunter syndrome) were JPY 74.2 billion (JPY -3.0 billion and -3.8% AER, -4.1% CER). The decrease was primarily due to a sales decrease in the Growth and Emerging Markets.
Sales of LIVTENCITY (for post-transplant cytomegalovirus (“CMV”) infection/disease) were JPY 34.9 billion (JPY +10.5 billion and +42.7% AER, +43.6% CER). The increase was primarily attributable to continued performance in the U.S. market reflecting strong market penetration, complemented by continued geographical expansion in Europe and the Growth and Emerging Markets.
Sales of TAKHZYRO (for hereditary angioedema) were JPY 170.7 billion (JPY +2.6 billion and +1.6% AER, +2.4% CER). The increase was primarily due to higher sales in the Growth and Emerging Markets and Europe, supported by patient persistency and prophylactic market growth, partially offset by unfavorable foreign exchange rates against the U.S. dollar. The demand growth was modest in the U.S., offset by heightened pricing pressure from factors such as the Medicare Part D redesign.
PDT
In PDT, revenue was JPY 790.5 billion (JPY +6.3 billion and +0.8% AER, +1.9% CER).
Aggregate sales of immunoglobulin products, mainly used for the treatment of primary immunodeficiency (“PID”), chronic inflammatory demyelinating polyneuropathy (“CIDP”), and multifocal motor neuropathy (“MMN”), were JPY 593.6 billion (JPY +17.6 billion and +3.1% AER, +4.3% CER). The increase was driven by growth in subcutaneous immunoglobulin therapies, CUVITRU and HYQVIA. Sales of GAMMAGARD LIQUID/KIOVIG, which are intravenous immunoglobulin therapies, decreased primarily due to unfavorable foreign exchange rates against the U.S. dollar and the impact of the Medicare Part D redesign in the U.S.
Sales of FEIBA (for hemophilia A and B) were JPY 25.1 billion (JPY -7.8 billion and -23.6% AER, -23.1% CER). The decrease was driven by competitive pressure from recombinant therapies globally.
Aggregate sales of HEMOFIL (for hemophilia A), IMMUNATE (for hemophilia A), and IMMUNINE (for hemophilia B) were JPY 17.7 billion (JPY -3.7 billion and -17.2% AER, -18.0% CER). The decrease was primarily due to a sales decline in the Growth and Emerging Markets and Europe.
Oncology
In Oncology, revenue was JPY 436.6 billion (JPY +8.2 billion and +1.9% AER, +2.0% CER).
Sales of ADCETRIS (for malignant lymphomas) were JPY 106.8 billion (JPY +7.2 billion and +7.2% AER, +6.2% CER). The increase was led by strong demand in the Growth and Emerging Markets and Europe, accompanied by favorable foreign exchange rates against the Euro.
Sales of FRUZAQLA (for colorectal cancer) were JPY 42.9 billion (JPY +6.8 billion and +19.0% AER, +19.9% CER). The increase was primarily due to the successful launch in Europe, Canada and Japan, as it addressed a need for new treatment options in metastatic colorectal cancer. The increase was partially offset by a sales decrease in the U.S., impacted by the Medicare Part D redesign.
Sales of LEUPLIN/ENANTONE (for endometriosis, uterine fibroids, premenopausal breast cancer, prostate cancer, and other certain indications) were JPY 90.3 billion (JPY +1.1 billion and +1.2% AER, +0.8% CER). The increase was primarily due to a sales increase in Europe, accompanied by favorable foreign exchange rates against the Euro.
Sales of NINLARO (for multiple myeloma) were JPY 61.0 billion (JPY -10.5 billion and -14.6% AER, -13.7% CER). The decrease was primarily due to intensified competition and decreased demand mainly in the U.S., partially offset by a sales increase in the Growth and Emerging Markets.
Vaccines
In Vaccines, revenue was JPY 55.0 billion (JPY +5.1 billion and +10.2% AER, +8.0% CER).
Sales of QDENGA (for prevention of dengue) were JPY 37.7 billion (JPY +7.8 billion and +25.9% AER, +22.1% CER). The increase was due to post-launch growth in the Growth and Emerging Markets, driven by higher demand.
Sales of other vaccine products in aggregate decreased primarily due to the temporary suspension of shipments of MR vaccine (for prevention of measles and rubella) in Japan.
Neuroscience
In Neuroscience, revenue was JPY 314.5 billion (JPY -142.0 billion and -31.1% AER, -30.4% CER).
Sales of VYVANSE/ELVANSE (for ADHD) were JPY 155.1 billion (JPY -132.4 billion and -46.0% AER, -45.7% CER). The decrease was due to the continued impact of generic erosion mainly in the U.S.

Period Ended December 31, 2025 (Consolidated)
Cost of Sales
Cost of Sales was JPY 1,165.9 billion (JPY -32.3 billion and -2.7% AER, -2.4% CER). The decrease was primarily driven by an adjustment to Cost of Sales recorded in the nine-month period ended December 31, 2024, resulting from the implementation of accounting process to recognize accumulated foreign currency impacts of inventories, as well as lower revenue. The decrease was partially offset by higher costs resulting from changes in product mix, mainly reflecting the continued impact of generic erosion, particularly for VYVANSE in the U.S.
Selling, General and Administrative (SG&A) Expenses
SG&A Expenses were JPY 792.2 billion (JPY -16.7 billion and -2.1% AER, -1.3% CER). The decrease was primarily due to cost savings under the enterprise-wide efficiency program, particularly reductions in personnel expenses, as well as the appreciation of the Japanese yen against the U.S. dollar.
Research and Development (R&D) Expenses
R&D Expenses were JPY 480.6 billion (JPY -33.6 billion and -6.5% AER, -5.1% CER). The decrease was mainly due to cost reductions from the termination of certain development programs and cost savings under the enterprise-wide efficiency program. This decrease was partially offset by incremental investments in late-stage pipelines.
Amortization and Impairment Losses on Intangible Assets Associated with Products
Amortization and Impairment Losses on Intangible Assets Associated with Products were JPY 478.7 billion (JPY +38.5 billion and +8.8% AER, +9.7% CER). Amortization Expenses decreased (JPY -14.7 billion) primarily reflecting lower amortizable intangible assets and the appreciation of the Japanese yen against the U.S. dollar. Impairment Losses increased (JPY +53.3 billion) due to the larger impairment charges recorded in the nine-month period ended December 31, 2025, compared with those recorded in the nine-month period ended December 31, 2024. The impairment charges recognized in the nine-month period ended December 31, 2025 primarily include JPY 58.2 billion of impairment charges related to the gamma delta T-cell therapy platform and associated Oncology program, and impairment charges for certain other in-process R&D assets, which were recorded in large part reflecting the decision to discontinue the related research and development activities. The impairment charges in the nine-month period ended December 31, 2024 include JPY 21.5 billion impairment charge for soticlestat (TAK-935), following the failure of the Phase 3 studies to meet their primary endpoints.
Other Operating Income
Other Operating Income was JPY 22.7 billion (JPY +6.4 billion and +39.7% AER, +40.3% CER). The increase was mainly due to higher gains from Divestment of Business in the nine-month period ended December 31, 2025. Gains of JPY 17.9 billion were recognized on the completion of the sales of non-core products and MEPACT mainly in Europe and the Middle East & North Africa regions in the nine-month period ended December 31, 2025, while a gain of JPY 6.1 billion was recognized on the completion of the transfer of the manufacturing operation of TACHOSIL in the nine-month period ended December 31, 2024.
Other Operating Expenses
Other Operating Expenses were JPY 94.0 billion (JPY -71.4 billion and -43.2% AER, -42.8% CER). The decrease was primarily attributable to a JPY 68.6 billion reduction in restructuring expenses, reflecting lower costs under the enterprise-wide efficiency program for the nine-month period ended December 31, 2025. It also reflected the absence of one-time expenses related to post-trial access for terminated clinical trials, which had been recorded in the nine-month period ended December 31, 2024 as well as lower asset impairment losses. This decrease was partially offset by higher valuation reserves for pre-launch inventories.
Operating Profit
As a result of the above factors, Operating Profit was JPY 422.4 billion (JPY +4.9 billion and +1.2% AER, +0.1% CER).
Net Finance Expenses
Net Finance Expenses were JPY 107.9 billion (JPY -24.0 billion and -18.2% AER, -14.8% CER). The decrease is primarily attributable to JPY 19.4 billion impairment loss recognized in the nine-month period ended December 31, 2024, upon classification of Teva Takeda Pharma Ltd. shares to the Assets Held for Sale.
Share of Loss of Investments Accounted for Using the Equity Method
Share of Loss of Investments Accounted for Using the Equity Method was JPY 1.8 billion (JPY -1.4 billion and -43.2% AER, -53.5% CER).

As a result of the above factors, Profit Before Tax was JPY 312.7 billion (JPY +30.3 billion and +10.7% AER, +7.7% CER).
Income Tax Expenses
Income Tax Expenses were JPY 96.4 billion (JPY +25.2 billion and +35.5% AER, +26.4% CER). The increase was primarily attributable to higher Profit Before Tax and lower tax credits, partially offset by lower tax expense recognized in connection with the reassessment of the recoverability of Deferred Tax Assets in the nine-month period ended December 31, 2025.
Net Profit for the Period
As a result of the above factors, Net Profit for the Period was JPY 216.3 billion (JPY +5.0 billion and +2.4% AER, +1.4% CER) and Net Profit for the Period attributable to owners of the Company was JPY 216.1 billion (JPY +5.0 billion and +2.4% AER, +1.4% CER).

Core Revenue
Core Revenue was JPY 3,411.2 billion (JPY -117.0 billion and -3.3% AER, -2.8% CER). The decrease was primarily attributable to a decrease in revenue in Neuroscience, largely attributable to the continued impact from generic erosion of VYVANSE in the U.S.
Takeda’s Growth and Launch Products* totaled JPY 1,768.3 billion (JPY +97.2 billion and +5.8% AER, +6.7% CER).

During the periods presented, these items fluctuated as follows:
Core Cost of Sales
Core Cost of Sales was JPY 1,166.4 billion (JPY -32.0 billion and -2.7% AER, -2.4% CER). The decrease was primarily driven by an adjustment to Cost of Sales recorded in the nine-month period ended December 31, 2024 resulting from the implementation of accounting process to recognize accumulated foreign currency impacts of inventories, as well as lower revenue. The decrease was partially offset by higher costs resulting from changes in product mix, mainly reflecting the continued impact of generic erosion, particularly for VYVANSE in the U.S.

Core Selling, General and Administrative (SG&A) Expenses
Core SG&A expenses were JPY 792.5 billion (JPY -16.7 billion and -2.1% AER, -1.3% CER). The decrease was primarily due to cost savings under the enterprise-wide efficiency program, particularly reductions in personnel expenses, as well as the appreciation of the Japanese yen against the U.S. dollar.
Core Research and Development (R&D) Expenses
Core R&D expenses were JPY 480.7 billion (JPY -33.6 billion and -6.5% AER, -5.1% CER). The decrease was mainly due to cost reductions from the termination of certain development programs and cost savings under the enterprise-wide efficiency program. This decrease was partially offset by incremental investments in late-stage pipelines.
Core Net Profit for the Period
Core Net Profit for the Period was JPY 673.8 billion (JPY -25.3 billion and -3.6% AER, -3.4% CER) and Core Net Profit attributable to owners of the Company was JPY 673.6 billion (JPY -25.3 billion and -3.6% AER, -3.4% CER) and are calculated from Core Operating Profit as below:

Goodwill and Property, Plant and Equipment increased (JPY +428.8 billion and JPY +115.8 billion, respectively) mainly due to the effect of foreign currency translation. Cash and Cash Equivalents increased (JPY +269.8 billion). Inventories increased (JPY +189.8 billion) primarily driven by the effect of foreign currency translation, as well as higher finished goods related to PDT products. Total Other Financial Assets increased (JPY +159.4 billion) mainly due to changes in fair value for cross currency interest rate swaps and forward exchange contracts in Japan. These increases were partially offset by the decrease of Intangible Assets (JPY -115.9 billion) mainly due to amortization.
Liabilities
Total Liabilities as of December 31, 2025 were JPY 7,764.7 billion (JPY +452.3 billion). Total Bonds and Loans were JPY 4,853.3 billion*, which increased (JPY +338.1 billion) mainly due to the effect of foreign currency and the issuances of unsecured JPY denominated senior bonds and unsecured U.S. dollar-denominated senior guaranteed notes, offset by redemption and repayment of bonds and loans. Total Other Financial Liabilities increased (JPY +69.0 billion) primarily due to changes in fair value for forward exchange contracts.

The proceeds of the JPY Bonds were used to redeem commercial paper. Following this, on June 23, 2025, Takeda redeemed USD 800 million of unsecured U.S. dollar-denominated senior notes on their maturity date. Takeda has also rolled over USD 500 million Bilateral Loan, which was originally drawn down on March 31, 2025, on a monthly basis until July 3, 2025.
On July 2, 2025, Takeda issued unsecured U.S. dollar-denominated senior guaranteed notes (the "USD Notes") in an aggregate principal amount of USD 2,400 million with maturity dates of July 7, 2035 and July 7, 2055, through its indirect wholly owned finance subsidiary Takeda U.S. Financing, Inc. The proceeds of the USD Notes were primarily used to repay USD 500 million Bilateral Loan on July 3, 2025, and redeem commercial paper drawings in July 2025.
*Amounts presented in the above explanation for Bonds and Loans are based on the principal amount.
Equity
Total Equity as of December 31, 2025 was JPY 7,644.1 billion (JPY +708.1 billion). The increase of Other Components of Equity (JPY +800.8 billion) was mainly due to a change in currency translation adjustments reflecting the depreciation of the Japanese yen. This increase was partially offset by the decrease in Retained Earnings (JPY -91.9 billion), driven by the decrease of JPY 312.5 billion related to dividend payments, offset by the increase of JPY 216.1 billion from Net Profit for the Period.

Net Cash from Operating Activities
Net Cash from Operating Activities was JPY 966.9 billion (JPY +131.9 billion). The increase was mainly due to favorable impacts from Changes in Assets and Liabilities primarily driven by changes in Trade and Other Receivables, favorable impacts resulting from Net Profit for the Period adjusted for non-cash items and other adjustments, and an increase of Other, net.
Net Cash used in Investing Activities
Net Cash used in Investing Activities was JPY 311.1 billion (JPY -36.3 billion). The decrease was mainly due to a decrease in cash outflow used in Acquisition of Investments, Acquisition of Option to License and Acquisition of Property, Plant and Equipment as well as an increase in Proceeds from Sales of Business, Net of Cash and Cash Equivalents Divested. This decrease was offset by higher cash outflows from Acquisition of Intangible Assets, as well as decrease of cash inflow from Proceeds from Sales and Redemption of Investments.
Net Cash used in Financing Activities
Net Cash used in Financing Activities was JPY 419.3 billion (JPY -30.3 billion). The decrease was mainly due to higher net cash inflows from the Issuance and Repayments of Bonds and Long-term Loans. This decrease was partially offset by an increase in Acquisition of Treasury Shares during the nine-month period ended December 31, 2025, and Proceeds from the Settlement of Cross Currency Interest Rate Swaps related to Bonds and Loans recorded during the nine-month period ended December 31, 2024.

[Revenue]
Takeda expects FY2025 revenue to be JPY 4,530.0 billion, an increase of JPY 30.0 billion, or 0.7%, from the previous forecast, primarily attributable to favorable changes in the assumptions of foreign exchange rates. This favorability more than offset product sales headwinds, including a stronger than anticipated generic erosion of VYVANSE in the U.S., as well as lower sales of plasma-derived therapies, TAKHZYRO and others.
The Core Revenue forecast has been revised in the same way as the Revenue forecast.
[Operating Profit]
Operating Profit is expected to increase by JPY 10.0 billion, or 2.5%, from the previous forecast to JPY 410.0 billion, mainly driven by higher revenue and change in the product mix, largely offset by higher amortization of intangible assets associated with products due to the changes in the assumption of foreign exchange rates to reflect a depreciated yen. Although operating expenses are also negatively affected by these foreign exchange rate changes, the impact is expected to be largely offset by incremental cost savings, including those from the enterprise-wide efficiency program, resulting in operating expenses remaining broadly flat compared to the previous forecast.
Core Operating Profit is expected to be JPY 1,150.0 billion, an increase of JPY 20.0 billion, or 1.8%.
[Net Profit for the Year (attributable to owners of the Company)]
Net Profit for the Year (attributable to owners of the Company) is expected to be JPY 154.0 billion, an increase of JPY 1.0 billion, or 0.7%, from the previous forecast. Profit Before Tax is expected to increase by JPY 2.0 billion, or 0.8%, to JPY 245.0 billion, primarily reflecting the increase in Operating Profit and the increase in net finance expenses, which are expected to increase by JPY 7.0 billion, or 4.5%, to JPY 163.0 billion due to the impact of foreign exchange rate changes. The tax expense is expected to increase as a result of higher Profit Before Tax, assuming the effective tax rate remains unchanged at approximately 37%.
Reported EPS is expected to be JPY 97.78, an increase of JPY 0.63, or 0.7%, and Core EPS is expected to be JPY 486, an increase of JPY 7, or 1.5%.

Other assumptions used in preparing the FY2025 Revised Forecast and the Management Guidance
•Reflect Takeda’s latest assumptions for the impact of tariffs, such as a 15% tariff on pharmaceutical products being imported into the U.S. from the European Union (EU) and Japan, as well as certain mitigation strategies including inventory management which Takeda is taking to minimize the impact. The impact from these tariff-related assumptions is expected to be immaterial.
