STADA - Generics with “value for money”
Generics contributed 73.2% to sales in 2006 (previous year: 74.3%) and represents STADA’s largest core segment by far. In 2006, sales in the generics core segment rose by 20% to EUR 911.2 million (2005: EUR 759.3 million1)). A part of this growth is based on the acquisition of the Serbian Hemofarm, whose product portfolio includes approx. 75% of generics. Group sales in the generics core segment rose by 32% to EUR 821.5 million in the first nine months of 2007 (1-9/2006: EUR 624.7 million2)).

Generics are drugs which, after expiration of the patent or other relevant commercial property rights, are offered in the same quality but for lower prices than products of an initial supplier having the same active ingredient. This means generics are typical “multisource products” with active ingredients that any supplier can readily procure.

Generics have a high structural growth potential. The basis for this on the one hand is the pressure to contain costs in numerous national health care markets because generics allow, in many indication areas, a low-cost medical therapy without quality cutbacks. On the other hand, the continuous expiration of patents or other commercial property rights ensures a constant automatic expansion of market potential available for generic competition. Historical data as well as forecast market data demonstrate the growth momentum of generics which is characterized by these two sustainable market trends.

There is no question that spending restraints in the different national health care systems form the basis for the long-term growth potential of generics suppliers. However, due to the associated low price expectations, the generics market is a very price-sensitive segment. Reactions to lasting or temporary challenges occurring in individual national markets due to regulation and /or competition must be specifically and flexibly targeted at the individual national market.

In Germany, the Group's generic drugs are marketed by the Group subsidiary STADApharm GmbH, STADA Medical GmbH, ALIUD Pharma GmbH & Co. KG, cell pharm GmbH and Hemofarm GmbH3).

STADA´s sales network outside of Germany consists the following sales companies in Europe: Austria, Belgium, Bosnia, the Czech Republic, Denmark, Finland, France, Ireland, Italy, Lithuania, Macedonia, Montenegro, the Netherlands, Portugal, Romania, Russia, Serbia, Spain, Sweden, Ukraine and United Kingdom.
