Outlook for the Fiscal Year Ending September 2017
Performance Overview
Record Highs in Both Net Sales and Earnings
In the forthcoming fiscal year ending September 2017, we will continue with efforts to maximize the benefits of the holding-company-based form of corporate organization,and strengthen our group management capabilities whilepromoting autonomy in each of our business segments. In
In the CRO Business (Japan), strict cost management, resource optimization in the monitoring operations, and strengthening of ties with Group companies in the data management operations contributed to increases in sales and earnings.
The SMO Business (Japan) has experienced a significant increase in sales following the merger with Sogo Rinsho Holdings Co., Ltd. Earnings; however, this than declined due to upfront expenses and an increase in goodwill amortization.
The CSO Business (Japan), meanwhile, recorded higher sales as strong results in MR Direct Services (phone-based detailing operations) and other operations added up to substantial growth in call center services for pharmaceutical companies. This growth more than offset a lackluster performance in the CMR (Contract Medical Representative) services, which also service pharmaceutical companies.
In the Global Research Business (EPS International), vigorous sales activity resulted in an increase of new project commissions that, in combination with steady progress in ongoing projects, added up to a large year-on-year increase in sales and, for the first time, this business has been able to report positive operating income.
The EKISHIN (China) Business experienced steady sales of digital x-ray equipment, film, and other medical devices and products handled by ET Medical Technology (Suzhou) Co., Ltd. Nevertheless, the impact of an appreciating yen prevented the recording of a sales increase on a yen basis, and resulted in an operating loss.
Aiming for Another Record Year of Sales and Operating Incometerms of consolidated results, we are expecting to achieveNet Sales of ¥58,000 million and Operating Income of¥6,500 million - record highs in both cases - and NetIncome Attributable to Parent Company Shareholders of¥3,500 million.
The outsourcing market for pharmaceutical and medical device development is growing both inside and outside Japan. Outsourcing needs remain at robust levels at both pharmaceutical and medical device companies, both of which are constantly seeking services offering higher levels of quality and efficiency.
Against this backdrop, the EPS Group’s consolidated results for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2016 totaled Net Sales of ¥52,703 million (up 16.6% year on year), with Operating Income of ¥6,224 million (up 13.5%), Ordinary Income of ¥6,589 million (up 22.9%), and Net
Income Attributable to our Parent Company Shareholders of ¥3,966 million (up 83.4%). Each of these figures reflects performance beyond Plan objectives and are historic high for the EPS Group.
Contributing to these results were factors such as; significant growth in the SMO Business (Japan) and the Global Research Business; greater profitability in the CRO Business (Japan); and achievement of profitability for the first time in our Global Research Business. (EPS International).
Regarding Shareholder ReturnsEPS Holdings’ basic policy regarding the allocation of earnings is to continuously strive to enhance shareholder returns, whilst also securing internal reserves needed for strengthening our operations in light of future business development endeavors and expectations for earnings growth.
In line with this policy, and in consideration of our performance for the fiscal year just ended, we have declared a year-end dividend of ¥15 per share (a special dividend of ¥5 per share, plus an ordinary dividend of ¥10 per share), a ¥5 per share increase from the same period in the previous fiscal year. Together with the interim dividend of ¥10 per share, which started and paid, dividends for the fiscal year came to a total of ¥25 per share.

EPS Holdings achieved the sales target for its three-year management plan a year earlier than expected. Based on this success, we created a new management plan for implementation starting in October 2016.
This new Plan covers a period of five years, the last of which is the fiscal year that ends in September 2021 and will mark the 30th anniversary of our founding. Under the Plan, three fundamental directions - “Establishing a Firm Position as a Provider of Solutions in the Healthcare Industry,” “Securing Scale,” and “Strengthening and
Solidifying a Strong Management Structure” - will be pursued to achieve goals including; Net Sales of ¥100 billion, an Operating Margin of 12.5%, a CAGR (compound annual growth rate) of 13.7%, and an overseas business ratio of 30% by the final fiscal year covered by the Plan. “We will contribute to the advancement of the healthcare industry by providing high-value-added solutions to our clients.” Holding fast to that basic philosophy, we aim to advance customer-, business-, and human-oriented policies as we implement our new management Plan.
