Olainfarm Sets Another Sales and Profits Record

on 30 rugpjūčio, 2013 Komentavimas išjungtas įraše Olainfarm Sets Another Sales and Profits Record

Olainfarm’s unaudited profit and loss statement for the first half of 2013 shows that the company had a turnover of 24.3 million lats (34.6 million euros). It is 7% more than in the same period last year. Consequently, the first half of 2013 is the most successful in terms of turnover of OlainFarm history.

„In the first half of the year Olainfarm has managed to achieve yet another sales record. We plan to retain this acceleration and increase it, because the seasonality affects the pharmaceutical industry in a way that the second half of the year is more successful. Strategically we will continue to develop in the same direction – introduce new products, will acquire and strengthen our presence in the pharmaceutical markets. This will be achieved by closer co-operation with other manufacturers for product distribution in the CIS and other countries. Simultaneously we are expanding the Latvijas aptieka network and we are actively engaging in medical device and food supplements sub segment that is possible after Olainfarm acquired the stocks of  Silvanols,” says Valerijs Maligins, Chairman of Olainfarm’s Board.

Olainfarm profit after tax during this period was 3.63 million lats (5.16 million euros). Particularly successful and thus also the most profitable 2nd quarter in company’s history has been the 2nd quarter of 2013, in which the net profit reached 1.68 million lats (2.39 million euros), which is an increase by almost 30% compared to the same period last year.

In the first half of 2013 Olainfarm became the main stockholder in the third biggest Latvian pharmaceutical company Silvanols by acquiring 70.88% stock.

Sales volumes continued to grow in all key business markets, except Ukraine, where it fell by 63% compared to the first half of 2012. This is due to the fact that JSC Olainfarm overshipped products to Ukraine in the 4th quarter of 2012, resulting in sales to Ukraine in 2013 being smaller than usual. The most rapid growth in the first half of 2013 was achieved in The Netherlands where sales increased by 1982%.

Olainfarm to Receive Corporate Income Tax Exemption for 5.21 Million Lats

on 7 gegužės, 2013 Komentavimas išjungtas įraše Olainfarm to Receive Corporate Income Tax Exemption for 5.21 Million Lats

JSC Olainfarm will be given corporate income tax exemption for approved long term investments made within the project “Introduction of new products and improved exporting capacity”. This decision was made on the meeting of Cabinet of Ministers held on May 7, and was based on assessment done by the Ministry of Economy about impact such exemption would have on national economy and local competition.  It is planned that the total tax exemption could be as high as 5.21 million lats.

“We are glad about such decision our government has made to provide this tax exemption to Olainfarm.  It is a very significant support for us to introduce new products and further develop our sales markets,” says Salvis Lapins, Member of the Board of JSC Olainfarm.

The project “Introduction of new products and improved exporting capacity” provides that JSC Olainfarm will introduce several new products and will significantly adjust several production processes and increase production efficiency. In total, within this project JSC Olainfarm will invest 22.95 million lats over the course of five years. Tax exemption will be applicable upon completion of the project.

Part of the investments that JSC Olainfarm will make within this project (5.29 million lats) will be merged with co-funding of European Regional Development Fund approved by Latvian Investment and Development Agency as part of “High Added Value Investments „.

As regulations of both support programmes allow combining tax exemptions with funding approved as part of other programmes and with the respective eligible costs, investmets worth 5.29 million lats supported by LIDA and ERDF are also included in the support programme adopted by the Cabinet.

Since intensity of the support in LIDA’s project approved for JSC Olainfarm is 35% of totas eligible costs and since company qualifies as big commercial company, a tax exemption of 15% will be applied for investments made from project approved by LIDA, while the rate of 25% is applicable to other investments worth 17.65 million lats.
