streams<br />

B2B Generics & Prescriptions <strong>Acino</strong> Brand Marketing (B2C)<br />

• Product with customers brand or INN<br />

in market<br />

• No IP build-up and customer free to<br />

switch manufacturer after contract<br />

period<br />

• Relatively fast income through signing<br />

fees and fast Rx to Gx switch in<br />

countries where patents expired<br />

• Fast price erosion<br />

Marketing • Making use of big Gx companies<br />

marketing power<br />

• Product with <strong>Acino</strong> brand in the<br />

market<br />

• IP and brand equity build-up which<br />

remains with <strong>Acino</strong><br />

• Takes longer to establish substantial<br />

sales<br />

• Once successful, sustainable income<br />

flow<br />

• Mid- to long-term higher profitability<br />

• Marketing expenses to establish<br />

brands<br />

• Risk of being unsuccessful in<br />

marketing the branded product<br />

Market reach • Fast access to big market potential • Possibility for opportunistic<br />

Current year 2011<br />

Top-line growth in the mid to high single-digit percentage range expected<br />

At an average exchange rate of EUR/CHF of 1.30 or higher, EBITDA margin<br />

expected to significantly surpass the <strong>2010</strong> level but still to remain below<br />

the targeted sustainable level of 25%<br />

Mid- to long-term<br />

Proactive initiatives will further strengthen the revenue stream, reduce <strong>Acino</strong>’s<br />

exposure to mature markets and contribute positively to earnings in the mid-<br />

term<br />

EBITDA-margin of 25% viewed as a sustainable profitability level going<br />

forward<br />

Financial strength will allow to proactively pursue growth opportunities and to<br />

advance <strong>Acino</strong>’s position as a leading provider of pharmaceutical specialties<br />
