Notes:

(1) Shift of significant subsidiaries during the period (shift of specified subsidiaries accompanied by changes in scope of consolidation) : None

(2) Application of specific accounting methods for preparing quarterly consolidated financial statements: Yes

Calculation of income taxes

The effective tax rate, after applying tax effect accounting, expected to be imposed on income before income taxes for the fiscal year in which this first quarter is included is estimated based on reasonable assumptions. Then, tax expenses are calculated by multiplying the income before income taxes for the quarter by the estimated effective tax rate.

(3) Changes in accounting policies, accounting estimates, and retrospective restatements

Changes due to changes in accounting standards: Yes

Application of "Accounting Standard for Retirement Benefits"

The Company has applied the "Accounting Standard for Retirement Benefits" (ASBJ Statement No. 26, May

17, 2012) and the "Guidance for the Accounting Standard for Retirement Benefits" (ASBJ Guidance No. 25, May 17, 2012) from the beginning of the current fiscal year, and revised the calculation method for retirement benefit liabilities and service cost according to the provisions found in the body text of Paragraph 35 of the Accounting Standard for Retirement Benefits and Paragraph 67 of the Guidance for the Accounting Standard for Retirement Benefits. The method of attributing benefits to periods of service has been changed from straight-line basis to benefit formula basis, and the method of determining of discount rate has also been changed from using the bond rate determined by reference to the terms closely related to average remaining working lives of the employees, to using a single weighted average discount rate that reflects the estimated timing and amount of benefit payments.

With regard to the application of the Accounting Standard for Retirement Benefits, in accordance with the provisions on transitional implementation indicated in Paragraph 37 of the Accounting Standard for Retirement Benefits, the amount of impact resulting from the change in calculation method of retirement benefit obligations and service costs were added to or deducted from retained earnings at the beginning of the fiscal year.

As a result, at the beginning of the current fiscal year, the amount of assets for retirement benefit decreased by

245 million yen, the amount of liabilities for retirement benefit increased by 62 million yen, retained earnings decreased by 198 million yen. The impact on the profit for the first nine months of the fiscal year is immaterial.

Changes due to changes in accounting standards other than (3),: None

Changes in accounting estimates: None

Retrospective restatements: None

1. Qualitative Information for the Nine Months Ended December 31, 2014

(1) Qualitative Information on Business Results

Consolidated business performance for the nine months from April 1 through December 31, 2014 is as follows:

The total net sales for the Sumitomo Dainippon Pharma Group amounted to 279,139 million yen, a 1.9% decrease from the first nine months of the previous fiscal year. The sales of LATUDA®, an atypical antipsychotic, in the segment North America and of MEROPEN®, a carbapenem antibiotic, in the segment China achieved solid growths, while the sales in the segment Japan declined considerably due to the NHI price revision in April 2014 and the influences of generics. The operating income for the period was 22,818 million yen, a 34.2% decrease year on year. Sales expenses for LATUDA® increased, and the clinical studies cost in North America increased as well, while amortization of patent rights decreased considerably. Ordinary income was 22,506 million yen, a 34.4% decline year-on-year. Net income was 18,993 million yen, a 0.9% decrease year on year, reflecting an extraordinary income from the sale of fixed assets and impairment losses relating to reorganization of production sites.

Business performance by segment is as follows:

Japan segment

Net sales of segment Japan declined 9.0% year on year to 120,649 million yen. The growths in the sales of two strategic products, AIMIX®, a therapeutic agent for hypertension, and TRERIEF®, a Parkinson's disease drug, were not large enough to offset the adverse impacts on the sales of existing products left by the NHI price revision and the generic drug utilization promoted in Japan. Segment income decreased 17.3% year on year to 40,760 million yen; strenuous cost-reduction efforts in sales expenses and others were outweighed by the decline in sales.

North America segment

In North America, net sales increased 3.2% year on year to 109,729 million yen, due to the large increase in LATUDA® sales and helped by the depreciation of Japanese yen against U.S. dollar, even though the sales of LUNESTA®, a sedative hypnotic, dropped considerably due to the April 2014 expiry of the exclusivity period. Segment income decreased 6.2% year on year to 26,377 million yen. Advertisement and other sales promotion expenses increased for LATUDA® and others, and the fee on sales of branded prescription drugs distributed through the government health care program increased considerably, although the amortization of LUNESTA® patent rights was completed.

③ China segment

In China the sales of MEROPEN® grew strongly, which contributed to the 50.9% year-on-year increase of the segment net sales to 12,310 million yen. The segment income increased considerably to 4,484 million yen, a 170.8% increase year on year.

Other Regions segment

Decreased export sales of MEROPEN® and other factors brought about a 5.8% year-on-year decrease in the sales of this segment at 6,197 million yen. Segment income was 734 million yen, a 70.5% decrease year on year due mainly to increased sale expenses of LATUDA® which was launched in the U.K. in August 2014.

In addition to the above-mentioned reportable segments, the Sumitomo Dainippon Pharma Group markets food

2

ingredients, food additives, materials for chemical products, veterinary drugs, diagnostic agents, etc. Net sales from those types of business were 30,253 million yen, a 2.2% decline year on year, and the segment income was 1,654 million yen, a 19.2% decline year on year.

(2) Qualitative Information on Financial Condition

Total assets increased 57,879 million yen from the previous consolidated fiscal year-end to 716,912 million yen. As for current assets, cash and time deposits as well as marketable securities increased as a result of the sale of idle assets and the effect of foreign exchange conversions. Property, plant and equipment declined due to asset sales and accrual of impairment losses, while intangible fixed asset increased in value, affected by the currency situation.

Total liabilities increased 4,130 million yen from the previous consolidated fiscal year-end to 264,622 million yen, due to a large increase in reserve for sales rebates resulting from the strong growth of LATUDA® sales in the U.S., although income tax payable and long-term loans payable decreased.

Net assets increased 53,749 million yen from the previous consolidated fiscal year-end to 452,289 million yen, mainly due to increases in retained earnings, unrealized gain on available-for-sale securities and foreign currency translation adjustments.

Shareholders' equity ratio as of the end of the current quarter was 63.1%.

(3) Qualitative Information on Consolidated Financial Forecasts

In light of recent performance trends, the October 30, 2014 forecast for the consolidated financial performance of the fiscal year to March 2015 is revised as described below.

The forecasted net sales is revised upward by 5 billion yen to 371 billion yen. The sales in North America is expected to remain brisk and the exchange rate of yen is anticipated to stay weaker than the assumption made in the previous forecast.

The forecasted operating income remains unchanged at 20 billion yen, because the selling, general and administrative expenses are expected to increase, due mainly to the exchange rate situation. The forecast for ordinary income is revised upward by 0.5 billion yen to 20 billion yen, reflecting an improvement in non-operating income.

The forecasted net income is revised downward by 1.5 billion yen to 12.5 billion yen in anticipation of a reversal of

deferred tax assets in view of the expected reduction in regulatory effective tax rates.
