From this reason, the corresponding balances in the Consolidated Statements of Financial Position as of March 31, 2019 were retrospectively revised. The Key Consolidated Financial Data for the year ended March 31, 2019 was restated to reflect this change. For details, please refer to "Notes to Condensed Interim Consolidated Financial Statements Note 12 Business Combinations".

Revenue. Revenue for the period was 849.1 billion JPY, an increase of 399.3 billion JPY, or 88.8%, compared to the same period of the previous year. Three months of revenue from products obtained through the acquisition of Shire (392.2 billion JPY) contributed to the growth.
Year-on-year change in revenue for this three months period in each of the therapeutic areas was primarily attributable to the following products:
GI. In Gastroenterology, revenue was 171.6 billion JPY, a year-on-year increase of 47.6 billion JPY, or 38.4%. Growth was driven by ENTYVIO (for ulcerative colitis (UC) and Crohn’s disease (CD)), Takeda's top-selling product, with sales of 83.9 billion JPY, a year-on-year increase of 22.6 billion JPY, or 36.9%. U.S. market share growth was driven by further penetration of bio-naïve segment in UC and CD. In Japan, sales were increased with newly approved CD indication, and most recently, a regulatory filing was submitted in China. Sales of TAKECAB (for acid-related diseases) were 18.3 billion JPY, an increase of 4.0 billion JPY, or 28.1% versus the same period of the previous year. The increase was driven by the expansion of new prescriptions in the Japanese market due to TAKECAB's efficacy in reflux esophagitis and the prevention of recurrence of gastric and duodenal ulcers during low-dose aspirin administration. Sales of GATTEX/REVESTIVE (for short bowel syndrome), obtained through the acquisition of Shire, added 15.1 billion JPY to our revenue.
Rare Diseases. Products obtained through the acquisition of Shire contributed 170.7 billion JPY of revenue in Rare Diseases in the period. The biggest contributors in each area were ELAPRASE in Rare Metabolic (for Hunter syndrome), ADVATE in Rare Hematology (for hemophilia A), and TAKHZYRO, a prophylaxis against Hereditary Angioedema, with sales of 18.8 billion JPY, 42.7 billion JPY, and 14.5 billion JPY, respectively.
PDT Immunology. In PDT (Plasma-Derived Therapies) Immunology, revenue increased by 86.0 billion JPY to 90.2 billion JPY, predominantly due to the addition of products obtained through the acquisition of Shire. Aggregate sales of

immunoglobulin products were 68.0 billion JPY, and in particular, GAMMAGARD LIQUID (mainly for the treatment of primary immunodeficiency (PID) and multifocal motor neuropathy (MMN)) continued to build its position as a highly recognized intravenous immunoglobulin brand that is the standard of care treatment for PID and MMN in the U.S.. Aggregate sales of albumin products including ALBUMIN GLASS and FLEXBUMIN (primarily used for hypovolemia and hypoalbuminemia) were 22.2 billion JPY.
Oncology. In Oncology, revenue was 106.5 billion JPY, a year-on-year increase of 7.5 billion JPY, or 7.6%. Sales of NINLARO (for multiple myeloma) were 18.3 billion JPY, an increase of 4.3 billion JPY, or 30.8%, versus the same period of the previous year, reflecting strong growth in sales particularly in several regions such as the U.S. and China. Additionally, sales of ADCETRIS (for malignant lymphomas) increased by 1.8 billion JPY, or 16.4%, to 12.7 billion JPY, reflecting strong growth in sales particularly in Japan where it has obtained an additional indication as a frontline treatment option for CD30-positive Hodgkin lymphoma. ALUNBRIG (for non-small cell lung cancer) increased by 0.6 billion JPY, or 52.8% to 1.7 billion JPY, as it continues to launch in European countries, and VELCADE (for multiple myeloma) slightly increased its sales by 0.3 billion JPY, or 1.0% compared to the same period of the previous year with 31.7 billion JPY.
Neuroscience. In Neuroscience, revenue was 111.9 billion JPY, a year-on-year increase of 87.6 billion JPY, or 360.4%. This increase was largely attributable to the neuroscience portfolio obtained through the Shire acquisition, including VYVANSE (for attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD)) which added 68.8 billion JPY of sales. TRINTELLIX (for major depressive disorder (MDD)) sales were 17.4 billion JPY, an increase of 3.3 billion JPY, or 23.4%, versus the same period of the previous year driven by increase in new patients and improved persistence on therapy.

Cost of Sales. Cost of Sales increased 180.0 billion JPY, or 149.3%, to 300.6 billion JPY compared to the same period of the previous year. This was primarily caused by the inclusion of Cost of Sales related to the sale of products obtained in the Shire acquisition and by the 84.5 billion JPY non-cash charge, mainly from the unwind of the fair value step up on the inventory. These effects were partially offset by a decrease in Cost of Sales for legacy Takeda products, primarily due to a more favorable product mix.
Selling, General and Administrative (SG&A) expenses. SG&A expenses increased 94.2 billion JPY, or 64.9%, to 239.2 billion JPY compared to the same period of the previous year, primarily due to expenses relating to the acquired operations of Shire. This increase was partially offset by the favorable impact of the Global Opex Initiative*1 and cost synergies from Shire integration.
*1 
Takeda's global operating expense reduction initiative with the aim of delivering annual margin improvements driven by reduced consumption, procurement initiatives and organizational optimization.

Research and Development (R&D) expenses. R&D expenses increased 44.9 billion JPY, or 62.4%, to 116.9 billion JPY, primarily resulting from costs for the R&D programs acquired from Shire.
Amortization and Impairment Losses on Intangible Assets Associated with Products. Amortization and Impairment Losses on Intangible Assets Associated with Products increased by 124.2 billion JPY, or 517.2%, to 148.3 billion JPY compared to the same period of the previous year. This primarily represents 109.1 billion JPY amortization of intangible assets related to the assets obtained through Shire acquisition and an impairment charge of 15.6 billion JPY related to the Company's decision to terminate the SHP616 AMR program following the interim readout in May 2019.

Other Operating Income. Other Operating Income decreased 2.6 billion JPY, or 28.2%, to 6.7 billion JPY compared to the same period of the previous year. The decrease was primarily due to decreased gains on sale of Property, Plant and Equipment of 5.1 billion JPY compared to the same period of previous year which was partially offset by a 2.2 billion JPY gain on sale of the shares of Axcelead Drug Discovery Partners, Inc. recorded in the current period.
Other Operating Expenses. Other Operating Expenses increased by 42.3 billion JPY to 41.0 billion JPY compared to the same period of the previous year, primarily due to an increase of 27.5 billion JPY in restructuring expenses resulting from the Shire integration. The valuation reserve for pre-launch inventories also was negatively impacted by 12.3 billion JPY comprised of a 3.1 billion JPY recorded for the three months period ended June 30, 2019 and a 9.2 billion JPY reversal of valuation reserve for pre-launch inventories recorded in the same period of the previous year.
Operating Profit. As a result of the above factors, Operating Profit decreased by 89.0 billion JPY, or 90.0% compared to the same period of the previous year to 9.9 billion JPY.
Net Finance Income / (Expenses). Net Finance Expenses were 37.4 billion JPY in the current period, an increase of 28.8 billion JPY compared to the same period of previous year, mainly due to interest on bonds and loans used to partially fund the Shire acquisition as well as interest on debt assumed from Shire.

Income Tax expenses. Income Tax Expenses decreased 20.3 billion JPY, or 128.8% from 15.8 billion JPY for the same period of the previous year to tax benefit of 4.6 billion JPY for the current period. This decrease was mainly due to decrease in Profit Before Tax resulting from the impact of purchase price allocation, such as amortization expense and inventory unwind, and integration costs, related to the Shire acquisition.
Net Profit (Loss) for the Period. Net Profit (Loss) for the Period decreased 98.7 billion JPY, or 126.4%, to (20.6) billion JPY for the period ended June 30, 2019.
Underlying Results (April 1 to June 30, 2019)
Definition of Core and Underlying Growth
Takeda uses the concept of Underlying Growth for internal planning and performance evaluation purposes.

Underlying Growth compares two periods (fiscal quarters or years) of financial results under a common basis and is used by management to assess the business. These financial results are calculated on a constant currency basis and exclude the impacts of divestitures and other amounts that are unusual, non-recurring items or unrelated to our ongoing operations. Although these are not measures defined by IFRS, Takeda believes Underlying Growth is useful to investors as it provides a consistent measure of our performance.

Takeda uses "Underlying Revenue Growth," "Underlying Core Operating Profit Growth," and "Underlying Core EPS Growth" as key financial metrics.

Underlying Revenue represents revenue on a constant currency basis and excluding non-recurring items and the impact of divestitures occurred during the reported periods.

Underlying Core Operating Profit represents Core Operating Profit (as defined below) on a constant currency basis and further adjusted to exclude the impacts of divestitures occurred during the reporting periods presented.

Core Operating Profit*1 represents net profit adjusted to exclude income tax expenses, the share of profit or loss of investments accounted for using the equity method, finance expenses and income, other operating expenses and income, amortization and impairment losses on acquired intangible assets and other items unrelated to Takeda’s core operations, such as purchase accounting effects and transaction related costs.
*1 From FY2019, Takeda renamed "Core Earnings" to "Core Operating Profit." Its definition has not changed.
Underlying Core EPS represents net profit based on a constant currency basis, adjusted to exclude the impact of divestitures, items excluded in the calculation of Core Operating Profit, and other non-operating items (e.g. amongst other items, fair value adjustments and the imputed financial charge related to contingent consideration) that are unusual, non-recurring in nature or unrelated to Takeda’s ongoing operations and the tax effect of each of the adjustments, divided by the outstanding shares (excluding treasury shares) as of the end of the comparative period.

Underlying Revenue Growth was -0.8% compared to the same three months period of the previous year. Revenue attributable to Takeda’s 14 global brands*3 grew by 22.2%, which was fully offset by the negative impact mainly from intensified competition and generic erosion lead to an overall decrease in underlying revenue.

Oncology: NINLARO, ALUNBRIG
GI. In Gastroenterology, underlying revenue increased by 7.9% compared to the same period of the previous year. Growth of ENTYVIO (+36.8%) and TAKECAB (+28.1%) fully absorbed the declines of off-patented products such as pantoprazole (-25.0%), lansoprazole (-18.9%), and LIALDA (-51.7%), which all faced further generic erosion.
Rare Diseases. In Rare Diseases, underlying revenue decreased by 9.9% due to higher competitive pressure. This was especially the case in Rare Hematology (-12.6%), where sales of both ADVATE (-18.1%) and FEIBA (-36.8%) for hemophilia A significantly declined largely due to competition, partially offset by growth of ADYNOVATE (+25.9%), our extended half-life product. Declines in therapies for Hereditary Angioedema (-19.9%) reflect lower sales of CINRYZE (-50.8%) and FIRAZYR (-60.4%) due to stocking in the prior year, fewer patients on CINRYZE, and less utilization of FIRAZYR, partially offset by TAKHZYRO sales in the U.S.
PDT Immunology. Underlying revenue of PDT Immunology was stable at 1.6% growth. Immunoglobulin products declined by 1.9% due to phasing of IVIG (intravenous immunoglobulin) shipments offset in part by growth in SCIG (subcutaneous immunoglobulin) patients on therapy. Albumin products increased by 14.1%.
Oncology. In Oncology, the year-over-year increase was 8.1%, led by NINLARO (+29.8%) and ADCETRIS (+26.6%). ALUNBRIG also marked a growth rate of 51.1%. The only Oncology product that declined on an underlying basis was VELCADE (-1.3%) with ex-US royalty income decreased by 30.9% due to generic entry in Europe in late April.
Neuroscience. In Neuroscience, underlying revenue increased by 10.1% due to the growth of VYVANSE (+12.8%) and TRINTELLIX (+20.7%), both of which are leading branded medications in the U.S. for ADHD and MDD, respectively. ADDERALL XR declined by 36.6% due to greater impacts from generic competition.

Major non-recurring items and the impact of divestitures excluded to calculate Underlying Revenue:
Revenue of former subsidiaries, Guangdong Techpool Bio-Pharma Co., Ltd. ("Techpool"), and Multilab Indústria e Comércio de Produtos Farmacêuticos Ltda. ("Multilab"), is excluded from the same period of the prior year consolidated revenue as both subsidiaries were divested in the fiscal year ended March 31, 2019.
Net sales from XIIDRA, which the divestiture was completed in July 2019, and TACHOSIL are excluded from both the current period and the same period of the prior year as Takeda agreed in May 2019 to divest these products, with completion of both divestitures expected to occur within FY2019.

Underlying Core Operating Profit Margin for the current period was 32.4%, reflecting a favorable impact of the Global Opex Initiative and cost synergies from the Shire integration.

Core Operating Profit, which excludes items unrelated to Takeda's core operations such as Shire integration related costs and non-cash expenses from purchase accounting, for the period was 283.0 billion JPY.

Underlying Core EPS for the current period was 123.56 JPY.

(2) Consolidated Financial Position
Assets. Total Assets as of June 30, 2019 were 13,550.4 billion JPY, reflecting a decrease of 349.6 billion JPY compared to the previous fiscal year-end. Goodwill and Intangible assets decreased by 105.8 billion JPY and 280.0 billion JPY, respectively, mainly due to FX impact and amortization of intangible assets. In addition, Cash and Cash Equivalents decreased by 108.3 billion JPY primarily from paying dividends. These decreases were partially offset by an increase of 154.3 billion JPY in Property, Plant and Equipment mainly due to the new accounting standards for leases (IFRS 16)*1.
*1 IFRS 16 requires the value of leases to be recorded on the balance sheet as long term assets with a corresponding long term liability, see below for discussion regarding the liability.

Liabilities. Total Liabilities as of June 30, 2019 were 8,676.0 billion JPY, reflecting a decrease of 60.5 billion JPY compared to the previous fiscal year-end mainly driven by Bonds and Loans decrease of 98.3 billion JPY to 5,652.6 billion JPY*2 mainly due to FX impact. The 500.0 billion JPY Hybrid bonds were issued in June while Loans decreased by 500.0 billion JPY due to redemption of the Syndicated Loans. In addition, Deferred Tax Liabilities and Trade and Other Payables also decreased by 66.1 billion JPY and 48.5 billion JPY, respectively. These decreases were partially offset by an increase of 178.6 billion JPY in Other Non-Current Financial Liabilities mainly due to the adoption of IFRS 16 as noted above.
*2 The carrying amount of Bonds and Loans as of June 30, 2019 were 3,629.6 billion JPY and 2,023.1 billion JPY, respectively. Breakdown of Bonds and Loans is as follows.

Equity. Total Equity as of June 30, 2019 was 4,874.5 billion JPY, a decrease of 289.1 billion JPY compared to the previous fiscal year-end. This was mainly due to a decrease of 164.3 billion JPY in Retained Earnings resulting from Dividends payment of 140.8 billion JPY, and a 129.5 billion JPY decrease in Other Components of Equity mainly due to fluctuation in currency translation adjustments reflecting the appreciation of yen.

Net cash from operating activities was 120.8 billion JPY for the current period compared to 40.5 billion JPY for the same period of the previous year. The increase of 80.3 billion JPY was driven by certain favorable non-cash adjustments such as an increase in depreciation and amortization of 137.8 billion JPY mainly attributable to intangible assets recorded upon the acquisition of Shire and a decrease in inventories by 65.1 billion JPY primarily attributable to the unwind of the fair value step up recorded in relation to the acquisition of Shire. This also includes other favorable adjustments such as an increase in net financial income and expenses by 28.8 billion JPY primarily due to the interest expenses in connection with the financing for the acquisition of Shire.
These were partially offset by a decrease in net profit of 98.7 billion JPY and an increase of income taxes paid by 46.1 billion JPY mainly resulting from payments of income tax by the legacy Shire entities.
Net cash used in investing activities was 41.6 billion JPY for the current period compared to 17.1 billion JPY for the same period of the previous year. This increase in net cash used was mainly due to a decrease of 11.5 billion JPY in proceeds from sales and redemption of investments and an increase of acquisition of property, plant and equipment by 10.3 billion JPY.
Net cash used in financing activities was 177.7 billion JPY for the current period compared to 82.2 billion JPY for the same period of the previous year. This increase in net cash used was due to an increase of dividends paid by 67.8 billion JPY

- 9 -


and an increase of interest paid by 28.7 billion JPY mainly resulting from the financing for the acquisition of Shire.
Net cash used in financing activities for the current period also included the proceeds of 500.0 billion JPY from the issuance of hybrid bonds and repayment of 500.0 billion JPY for the short-term syndicated loans.

(3) Research & Development Activities and Results
Research and development expenses for the three months period ended June 30, 2019 were 116.9 billion JPY.
Takeda initiated a five year R&D Transformation program in July 2016, to re-invigorate the pipeline and build an agile, global R&D organization driven by innovative science. A significant component of the change has been an intensive focus in the following three key areas:
1.
Therapeutic Area Focus: Leveraging therapeutic area expertise to progress innovative assets
2.
Partnerships & Capabilities: Enhancing capabilities internally and through external collaborations
3.
Innovative Research Engine: Developing new technologies and new modalities to treat disease
Upon completion of the Shire Acquisition, Takeda has focused R&D efforts in four therapeutic areas (Oncology, Gastroenterology, Rare Diseases, and Neuroscience) and two targeted R&D Business Units (Plasma Derived Therapies and Vaccines).
Major progress on R&D events occurring within the three months period ending June 30 2019 are listed as follows:

R&D pipeline
Oncology
In oncology, Takeda endeavors to deliver novel medicines to patients with cancer worldwide through a commitment to breakthrough innovation, and a passion for improving the lives of patients. Takeda focuses in 3 key areas in oncology; (1) building on its foundational expertise in hematologic malignancies through continued investment in lifecycle management programs for marketed products NINLARO, ADCETRIS, and ICLUSIG, as well as in pipeline assets in Multiple Myeloma, Acute Myeloid Leukemia, Myelodysplastic Syndromes, and other blood cancers; (2) further developing its portfolio in lung cancer; and (3) pursuing novel immuno-oncology targets and next-generation platforms with external partners as well as exploring innovative cell therapies.
NINLARO/Generic name: ixazomib
In April 2019, Takeda announced that it submitted an application for a partial change to its manufacturing and marketing approval to Japanese Ministry of Health, Labour and Welfare (MHLW) for NINLARO regarding an additional indication as a maintenance therapy for multiple myeloma following autologous stem cell transplantation(ASCT).
In June 2019, Takeda announced that the Phase 3 TOURMALINE-AL1 clinical trial in patients with relapsed or refractory systemic light-chain (AL) amyloidosis did not meet the first of two primary endpoints. Treatment with NINLARO in combination with dexamethasone did not demonstrate a significant improvement in overall hematologic response compared to physician’s choice of standard of care regimens. As a result of this analysis, Takeda has decided to discontinue the trial. The encouraging secondary endpoint data will be submitted for presentation at an upcoming scientific meeting.
Generic name: cabozantinib
In April 2019, Takeda announced that it submitted an application to the Japanese Ministry of Health, Labor and Welfare for manufacturing and marketing approval for Cabozantinib for the treatment of unresectable and metastatic renal cell carcinoma. The application is based on the results of an international phase-3 METEOR pivotal trial, an overseas phase-2 CABOSUN trial, and a Japanese phase-2 Cabozantinib-2001 trial that studied the efficacy and safety of Cabozantinib on 35 Japanese patients suffering from advanced renal cell carcinoma, which had progressed after prior vascular endothelial growth factor receptor tyrosine kinase inhibitor (VEGFR-TKI) therapy.
Development code: TAK-788
In June 2019, Takeda presented new data regarding TAK-788 during an oral session at the 2019 American Society of Clinical Oncology (ASCO) Annual Meeting. Results from a Phase 1/2 first-in-human, open-label, multicenter

- 10 -


study showed TAK-788 yielded a median progression-free survival (PFS) of 7.3 months and a confirmed objective response rate (ORR) of 43% in patients with locally advanced or metastatic non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) whose tumors harbor epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) exon 20 insertion mutations.

Gastroenterology
In gastroenterology (GI), Takeda focuses on delivering innovative, life-changing therapeutics for patients with GI and liver diseases. Takeda is maximizing the potential of our inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) franchise around ENTYVIO and ALOFISEL, expanding our position in specialty GI with GATTEX and progressing a pipeline built through partnerships exploring opportunities in motility disorders, celiac disease, liver disease and the microbiome.
ENTYVIO/Generic name: vedolizumab
In April 2019, Takeda announced that the European Medicines Agency (EMA) accepted a Marketing Authorization Line Extension Application for a subcutaneous (SC) formulation of vedolizumab for maintenance therapy in adults with moderately to severely active ulcerative colitis or Crohn’s disease. Takeda proposes to make vedolizumab SC available in both pre-filled syringe and pen options.
In May 2019, Takeda announced that the U.S. Food & Drug Administration (FDA) accepted for review a Biologics License Application (BLA) for an SC formulation of vedolizumab for maintenance therapy in adults with moderately to severely active ulcerative colitis. Takeda proposes to make vedolizumab SC available in both pre-filled syringe and pen options.
In May 2019, Takeda announced that it obtained approval from the Japanese MHLW for an additional indication for ENTYVIO for the treatment of adult patients with moderately to severely active Crohn’s disease.
In May 2019, Takeda announced new exploratory data from VARSITY, the first head-to-head ulcerative colitis biologic study, which demonstrated superiority of vedolizumab to adalimumab in clinical remission*1 at week 52. The data was presented at 2019 Digestive Disease Week(DDW).
In July 2019, Takeda announced top-line results from the VISIBLE 2 clinical trial evaluating the efficacy and safety of an investigational SC formulation of vedolizumab as maintenance therapy in adult patients with moderately to severely active Crohn's disease who achieved clinical response*1 at week 6 following two doses of open-label vedolizumab intravenous (IV) therapy at weeks 0 and 2. In evaluating the primary endpoint of the trial, a statistically significant proportion of patients receiving vedolizumab SC achieved clinical remission*2 at week 52 compared to placebo.
*1 Clinical response is defined as a ≥70 point decrease in Crohn's Disease Activity Index (CDAI) score from baseline (week 0).
*2 Clinical remission is defined as a Crohn's Disease Activity Index (CDAI) score ≤150 at week 52.
GATTEX/Generic name: teduglutide
In May 2019, Takeda announced the FDA approved extending the indication of GATTEX for children 1 year of age and older with short bowel syndrome who need additional nutrition or fluids from intravenous feeding (parenteral support).

Rare Diseases
Takeda acquired our rare disease business and pipeline through our acquisition of Shire. Takeda focuses on (1) rare immunology (e.g., Hereditary angioedema) including through recently launched TAKHZYRO to transform the treatment paradigm, (2) rare hematology with the broadest portfolio across our competitors in hematology and (3) rare metabolic diseases, focused on addressing with approved treatments for Fabry disease, Hunter syndrome and Gaucher disease.
ADYNOVATE/Generic name: antihemophilic factor (recombinant), PEGylated
In July 2019, Takeda announced updated results from its phase IIIb/IV clinical trial for ADYNOVATE at the 27th Annual International Society on Thrombosis and Haemostasis Congress (ISTH). The PROPEL study is a prospective, randomized, multi-center study comparing the safety and efficacy of ADYNOVATE following PK-guided prophylaxis targeting two different factor eight (FVIII) trough activity levels in subjects with severe hemophilia A.
TAKHZYRO /Generic name: lanadelumab

- 11 -


In June 2019, Takeda announced new data from an ad-hoc analysis of the Phase 3 HELP Study, designed to evaluate the onset of action for TAKHZYRO during days 0-69 of treatment. The data was presented at the European Academy of Allergy and Clinical Immunology (EAACI). The analysis suggests that TAKHZYRO starts to prevent hereditary angioedema (HAE) attacks during this early treatment phase, with patients experiencing an 80.1% decrease in mean monthly attack rate compared to placebo.
Development code: BAX111/Generic name: Vonicog Alfarecombinant
In July 2019, Takeda announced that it filed an application with the Ministry of Health, Labour and Welfare in Japan for manufacturing and marketing approval of Vonicog Alfa (BAX111), a recombinant human von Willebrand Factor, in the treatment of von Willebrand's Disease.

Neuroscience
In neuroscience, Takeda aims to bring innovative medicines to patients suffering from neurologic and psychiatric diseases for whom there are no treatments available. Takeda is expanding its presence in psychiatric diseases through continued investment in Trintellix for Major Depressive Disorder, and the Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder portfolio acquired from Shire. Takeda is also building its pipeline in neurology (e.g. Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's disease) and selected rare CNS diseases through a combination of in-house expertise and collaboration with partners.
TRINTELLIX/Generic name: vortioxetine
In July 2019, Takeda presented the results of a domestic, phase 3 randomized, placebo-controlled, double-blind, parallel-group, controlled trial (NCT02389816) studying vortioxetine in the treatment of major depressive disorder at the 16th Annual Meeting of the Japanese Society of Mood Disorders. In this trial, adult patients in Japan with recurrent depression were randomly assigned to a vortioxetine (10mg or 20mg) or placebo group. The primary endpoint was change in total score from baseline (at the onset of double blinding) on the Montgomery-sberg Depression Rating Scale (MADRS) at week 8 of administration which was -2.66 and -3.07 in the 10mg and 20mg vortioxetine groups, respectively. These figures represented statistically significant decreases in the treatment groups (P=0.0080, 0.0023).
INTUNIV/Generic name: guanfacine hydrochloride
In June 2019, Takeda announced that that a partial change has been approved from the Japanese MHLW for the indications for Intuniv in the treatment of adult patients (aged 18 and over). The manufacturing and marketing rights in Japan for Intuniv are held by Shionogi, while Takeda and Shionogi jointly provide information on the drug.

Plasma Derived Therapies
Takeda added a new global Business Unit to focus on Plasma-Derived Therapies (PDT) after the acquisition of Shire on January 8, 2019. PDT Business Unit will focus on meeting the growing demand for plasma-derived products, which are essential for effectively treating patients with a variety of rare, life-threatening, chronic and genetic diseases across the world.

Vaccine
In vaccines, Takeda is applying innovation to tackle some of the world’s most challenging infectious diseases such as dengue, zika, norovirus, and polio. To support the expansion of our pipeline and the development of our programs, we have entered partnerships with government organizations (in Japan, the U.S., and Singapore) and leading global institutions. Such partnerships have been essential towards building the critical capabilities that will be necessary to deliver on our programs and realize their full potential.

Building a sustainable research platform / Enhancing R&D collaboration
In addition to our concentrated efforts to increase our in-house research and development capabilities, external partnerships with third-party partners are a key component of our strategy for enhancing our research and development pipeline. Our strategy to expand and diversify our external partnerships allows us to take part in research of a wide variety of new products and increases the chances that we will be able to take part in a major research-related breakthrough.

- 12 -


In July 2019, Takeda and The Center for iPS Cell Research and Application (CiRA) at Kyoto University announced that a novel induced pluripotent stem (iPS) cell-derived chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T-cell therapy (iCART) has been transferred from their T-CiRA research collaboration to Takeda as the program begins process development toward clinical testing.

Notes to Condensed Interim Consolidated Financial Statements
1 Reporting Entity
Takeda Pharmaceutical Company Limited (the “Company”) is a public company incorporated in Japan. The Company and its subsidiaries (collectively, "Takeda") is a global, values-based, research and development ("R&D") driven biopharmaceutical company with an innovative portfolio, engaged primarily in the research, development, manufacturing and marketing of pharmaceutical products. Takeda's principal pharmaceutical products include medicines in the following core business areas: gastroenterology ("GI"), rare diseases, plasma-derived therapies, oncology, and neuroscience.
Takeda has grown both organically and through acquisitions, completing a series of major transactions that have brought therapeutic, geographic and pipeline growth, specifically the acquisition of Shire plc ("Shire") in January 2019 for 6,213,335 million JPY (Note 12). Shire was a leading global biotechnology company focused on serving people with rare diseases and other highly specialized conditions.
2 Basis of Preparation
(1) Compliance
Takeda has prepared the condensed interim consolidated financial statements in accordance with IAS 34 “Interim Financial Reporting” as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board ("IASB").
The condensed interim consolidated financial statements do not contain all the information required in consolidated financial statements as of the end of a fiscal year. Therefore, the condensed interim consolidated financial statements should be used with the consolidated financial statements as of and for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2019.
(2) Functional Currency and Presentation Currency
The condensed interim consolidated financial statements are presented in Japanese yen (“JPY”), which is the functional currency of the Company. All financial information presented in JPY has been rounded to the nearest million, except when otherwise indicated.
(3) Approval of Financial Statements
Takeda’s condensed interim consolidated financial statements as of and for the period ended June 30, 2019 were approved on August 9, 2019 by Representative Director, President & Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”) Christophe Weber and Director & Chief Financial Officer Costa Saroukos.
(4) Use of Judgments, Estimates and Assumptions
The preparation of the condensed interim consolidated financial statements requires management to make certain judgments, estimates and assumptions that affect the application of accounting policies and the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue and expenses. Actual results may differ from these estimates.
These estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on a continuous basis. Changes in these accounting estimates are recognized in the period in which the estimates are revised and in any future periods affected.
The condensed interim consolidated financial statements are prepared based on the same judgments and estimations as well as the accounting estimates and assumptions applied and described in Takeda’s consolidated financial statements for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2019, except for new significant judgments and uncertainty of the estimations related to the application of IFRS 16 ‘Leases’ (“IFRS 16”), which is described in Note 3 Significant Accounting Policies.
3 Significant Accounting Policies
Significant accounting policies adopted for the condensed interim consolidated financial statements are the same as those adopted for the consolidated financial statements of the fiscal year ended March 31, 2019 except for the policies required by IFRS 16.
Takeda calculated income tax expenses for the three months period ended June 30, 2019, based on the estimated average annual effective tax rate.

- 24 -


IFRS 16 'Leases'
Takeda adopted IFRS 16 on April 1, 2019. The standard replaces IAS 17 'Leases' (“IAS 17”) and IFRIC 4 'Determining whether an Arrangement contains a Lease' (“IFRIC 4”) and introduces a single lease accounting model requiring a lessee to recognize lease liabilities and right-of-use (ROU) assets for almost all leases. Of the costs from operating leases previously included within cost of sales, selling, general and administrative expenses, research and development expenses, and other operating expenses, the portion related to the financing element is reclassified and reported as finance expenses. In the statements of cash flows, the lease payments previously included within cash flows from operating activities are reported within cash flows from financing activities.
Takeda adopted IFRS 16 using the modified retrospective approach and the cumulative effect of adopting the standard was recognized on April 1, 2019. At transition, lease liabilities were measured at the present value of the remaining lease payments, discounted at the incremental borrowing rate as of April 1, 2019. ROU assets were measured at an amount equal to the lease liabilities, adjusted for any prepaid or accrued lease payments, onerous lease provisions and business combination related fair value adjustments.
The adoption of IFRS 16 resulted in the recognition of lease liabilities (included in "Other financial liabilities") of 217,325 million JPY and ROU assets (included in "Property, plant and equipment") of 199,256 million JPY, excluding the amount related to leases previously classified as finance leases under IAS 17 in the consolidated statements of financial position as of April 1, 2019. The weighted average incremental borrowing rate applied to the lease liabilities on April 1, 2019 was 2.8%. In the condensed interim consolidated statements of cash flows, cash outflow of 7,572 million JPY for the three months ended June 30, 2019 was presented in 'net cash from (used in) financing activities' instead of 'net cash from operating activities'. Other impact of applying IFRS 16 to the condensed interim consolidated financial statements was immaterial.
Takeda elected the following transition practical expedients, to leases previously classified as operating leases under IAS 17;
Applying the recognition exemption for lease contracts for which the term ends within 12 months at the date of initial application
Adjusting the ROU assets by the amount of onerous contract provision recognized under IAS 37 'Provisions, Contingent Liabilities and Contingent Assets' immediately before the date of initial application, as an alternative to an impairment review
Takeda has also elected not to reassess whether a contract is, or contains a lease at the date of initial application. Instead, for contracts entered into before April 1, 2019, Takeda relied on its assessment made applying IAS 17 and IFRIC 4.
As a result of the adoption of IFRS 16, Takeda has updated and revised the related accounting policy for leases, effective April 1, 2019, as follows:
As Lessee
Takeda assesses whether a contract is or contains a lease at inception of a contract. As a lessee, Takeda recognizes a ROU asset and a corresponding lease liability for all contracts in which it is a lessee in the consolidated statements of financial position at the lease commencement date.
The ROU asset is initially measured at cost, being the initial amount of the lease liability adjusted for any lease payments made at or before the lease commencement date and subsequently at cost less any accumulated depreciation and impairment losses. The ROU asset is subsequently depreciated using the straight-line method over the shorter of the lease term or the estimated useful life of the underlying asset. The ROU asset is subject to impairment assessment.
The lease liability is initially measured at the present value of the lease payments that are not paid at the commencement date, discounted using the interest rate implicit in the lease or, if not readily determinable, the Takeda's incremental borrowing rate.
Generally, Takeda uses its incremental borrowing rate as the discount rate. The lease term comprises a non-cancellable period of lease contracts and periods covered by an option to extend or terminate the lease if Takeda is reasonably certain to exercise that option. After initial recognition, the lease liability is measured at amortized cost using the effective interest method. If there is a change in future lease payments, such as from reassessment of whether an extension or termination option will be exercised, the lease liability is remeasured. A corresponding adjustment is made to the ROU asset or is recorded in the consolidated statements of income when the ROU asset has been fully depreciated.
Takeda has elected to apply recognition exemption for leases that have a lease term of 12 months or less and leases of low-value assets. The lease payments for such leases are recognized as an expense on a straight-line basis over the lease term.

As a practical expedient, Takeda has elected not to separate non-lease components from lease components, and instead accounts for each lease component and any associated non-lease components as a single lease component.
4 Operating Segment and Revenue Information
Takeda comprises a single operating segment and is engaged in the research, development, manufacturing and marketing of pharmaceutical products, over-the-counter ("OTC") medicines and quasi-drug consumer products, and other healthcare products. This is consistent with how the financial information is viewed in allocating resources, measuring performance, and forecasting future periods by the CEO who is Takeda's Chief Operating Decision Maker.
Takeda’s revenue from contracts with customers is comprised of the following:

11 Financial Instruments
(1) Fair Value Measurements
Derivative and non-derivative financial instruments measured at fair value are categorized in the following three-tier fair value hierarchy that reflects the significance of the inputs in making the measurements. Level 1 is defined as observable inputs, such as quoted prices in active markets for an identical asset or liability. Level 2 is defined as inputs other than quoted prices in active markets within Level 1 that are directly or indirectly observable. Level 3 is defined as unobservable inputs. Fair value information is not provided for financial instruments, if the carrying amount is a reasonable estimate of fair value due to the relatively short period of maturity of these instruments.

(2) Valuation Techniques
The fair value of derivatives is measured at quoted prices or quotes obtained from financial institutions, whose significant inputs to the valuation model used are based on observable market data.
The fair value of the investment in convertible notes is measured using techniques such as the discounted cash flow and option pricing models.
Equity instruments and investments in debt securities are not held for trading. If equity instruments or investments in debt securities are quoted in an active market, the fair value is based on price quotations at the period-end-date. If equity instruments or investments in debt securities are not quoted in an active market, the fair value is calculated utilizing a net asset-book value method or multiples of EBITDA approach based on available information as of each period-end-date and company comparable. The principle input that is not observable and utilized for the calculation of the fair value of equity instruments and investments in debt securities classified as Level 3 is the EBITDA rate used for the EBITDA multiples approach, which ranges from 3.7 times to 12.0 times.
Financial liabilities associated with contingent consideration arrangements related to business combinations are valued at fair value at the acquisition date as part of the business combination. When the contingent consideration meets the definition of a financial liability, it is subsequently re-measured to fair value at each reporting date. The determination of the fair value is based on models such as scenario-based methods and discounted cash flows. The key assumptions take into consideration the probability of meeting each performance target, forecasted revenue projections, and the discount factor. The fair value measurement of financial liabilities associated with contingent consideration arrangements related to

- 29 -


business combinations are discussed in Note (5) Financial liabilities associated with contingent consideration arrangements.
The joint venture net written option, included in other Level 3 assets above is valued at fair value, and subsequently re-measured to fair value at each reporting date. The determination of the fair value is based on the Monte Carlo Simulation model. The key assumptions include probability weighting, estimated earnings and assumed market participant discount rates that are taken into account for the fair value.
(3) Transfers between levels
Takeda recognizes transfers between levels of the fair value hierarchy, at the end of the reporting period during which the change has occurred. There were no transfers among Level 1, Level 2, and Level 3 except transfers from Level 3 to Level 1 recorded in the three months period ended June 30, 2019. These transfers resulted from the investments in the companies whose shares were previously not listed on an equity or stock exchange and had no recent observable active trades in the shares. The companies listed its equity shares on an exchange and are currently actively traded in the market. As the equity shares have a published price quotation in an active market, the fair value measurement was transferred from Level 3 to Level 1 on the fair value hierarchy.
(4) Level 3 fair values
The following table shows a reconciliation from the opening balances to the closing balances for Level 3 financial asset fair values.

(5) Financial liabilities associated with contingent consideration arrangements
Financial liabilities associated with contingent consideration arrangements represent consideration related to business combinations or financial liabilities acquired based on the license agreements that is payable only upon future events such as the achievement of development milestones and sales milestones, including pre-existing contingent consideration arrangements of the companies that are acquired by Takeda. At each reporting date, the fair value of contingent consideration is re-measured based on risk-adjusted future cash flows discounted using appropriate discount rate.
The pre-existing contingent consideration acquired from Shire through Shire’s historical acquisitions is due upon the achievement of certain milestones related to the development, regulatory, first commercial sale and other sales milestones of products at various stages of development and marketing. The fair value of the contingent consideration payable could increase or decrease due to changes in certain assumptions which underpin the fair value measurements. The assumptions include probability of milestones being achieved.
The fair value of financial liabilities associated with contingent consideration arrangements is classified as Level 3 in the fair value hierarchy.

The fair value of loans is measured at the present value of future cash flows discounted using the applicable market rate on the loans with consideration of the credit risk by each group classified in a specified period. The fair value of bonds and long-term loans are classified as Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy.
The fair value disclosure of lease liabilities is not required for the current fiscal year.

12 Business Combinations
There were no significant business combinations for the three months period ended June 30, 2019.
On January 8, 2019, Takeda completed the acquisition of 100% of the outstanding shares of Shire plc ("Shire") in a cash and equity transaction valued at 6,213,335 million JPY. Shire was a leading global biotechnology company focused on serving people with rare diseases.
The fair values of the assets acquired and the liabilities assumed, as of March 31, 2019, were provisional and subject to change. Takeda performed additional analysis and further facts came to light for the three months period ended June 30, 2019. Accordingly, the provisional fair values for certain assets acquired and the liabilities assumed were adjusted as follows:

IMPORTANT NOTICE
For the purposes of this notice, report means this document (including its attachments and appendices) and any oral presentation, any question and answer session and any written or oral material discussed or distributed by Takeda Pharmaceutical Company Limited (Takeda) in connection herewith. This report (including any oral briefing and any question-and-answer in connection with it) is not intended to, and does not constitute, represent or form part of any offer, invitation or solicitation of any offer to purchase, otherwise acquire, subscribe for, exchange, sell or otherwise dispose of, any securities or the solicitation of any vote or approval in any jurisdiction. No shares or other securities are being offered to the public by means of this report. No offering of securities shall be made in the United States except pursuant to registration under the U.S. Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or an exemption therefrom. This report is being given (together with any further information which may be provided to the recipient) on the condition that it is for use by the recipient for information purposes only (and not for the evaluation of any investment, acquisition, disposal or any other transaction). Any failure to comply with these restrictions may constitute a violation of applicable securities laws.

The companies in which Takeda directly and indirectly owns investments are separate entities. In this report, Takeda is sometimes used for convenience where references are made to Takeda and its subsidiaries in general. Likewise, the words we, us and our are also used to refer to subsidiaries in general or to those who work for them. These expressions are also used where no useful purpose is served by identifying the particular company or companies.

Forward-Looking Statements
This report and any materials distributed in connection with this report may contain forward-looking statements, beliefs or opinions regarding Takeda’s future business, future position and results of operations, including estimates, forecasts, targets and plans for Takeda. In particular, this report contains forecasts and management estimates related to the financial and operational performance of Takeda. Without limitation, forward looking statements often include the words such as targets, plans, believes, hopes, continues, expects, aims, intends, will, may, should, would, could anticipates, estimates, projects, forecasts or words or terms of similar substance or the negative thereof. Any forward-looking statements in this document are based on the current assumptions and beliefs of Takeda in light of the information currently available to it. Such forward-looking statements do not represent any guarantee by Takeda or its management of future performance and involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors, including but not limited to: the economic circumstances surrounding Takeda’s business, including general economic conditions in Japan, the United States and worldwide; competitive pressures and developments; applicable laws and regulations; the success of or failure of product development programs; decisions of regulatory authorities and the timing thereof; changes in exchange rates; claims or concerns regarding the safety or efficacy of marketed products or products candidates; and post-merger integration with acquired companies, any of which may cause Takeda’s actual results, performance, achievements or financial position to be materially different from any future results, performance, achievements or financial position expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements. For more information on these and other factors which may affect Takeda’s results, performance, achievements, or financial position, see Item 3. Key Information-D. Risk Factors in Takeda’s most recent annual report on Form 20-F filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, available on Takeda’s website at: https://www.takeda.com/investors/reports/sec-filings/ or at www.sec.gov. Neither Takeda nor its management gives any assurances that the expectations expressed in these forward-looking statements will turn out to be correct, and actual results, performance or achievements could materially differ from expectations. Persons receiving this report should not place undue reliance on forward looking statements. Takeda undertakes no obligation to update any of the forward-looking statements contained in this report or any other forward-looking statements it may make, except as required by law or stock exchange rule. Past performance is not an indicator of future results and the results of Takeda in this report may not be indicative of, and are not an estimate, forecast or projection of Takeda’s future results.

Certain Non-IFRS Financial Measures
This report includes certain non-IFRS financial measures and targets. Takeda's management evaluates results and makes operating and investment decisions using both IFRS and non-IFRS measures included in this report. Non-IFRS results exclude certain income and cost items which are included in IFRS results. By including these non-IFRS measures, management intends to provide investors with additional information to further analyze Takeda's performance, core results and underlying trends. Non-IFRS results are not prepared in accordance with IFRS and non-IFRS information should be considered a supplement to, and not a substitute for, financial statements prepared in accordance with IFRS. Investors are encouraged to review the reconciliations of non-IFRS financial measures to their most directly comparable IFRS measures, which are on appendices 1-4.

Medical information
This report contains information about products that may not be available in all countries, or may be available under different trademarks, for different indications, in different dosages, or in different strengths. Nothing contained herein should be considered a solicitation, promotion or advertisement for any prescription drugs including the ones under development.

Financial information
Takeda’s financial statements are prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS).

The Shire acquisition closed on January 8, 2019, and our consolidated results for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2019 include Shire’s results from January 8, 2019 to March 31, 2019. References to Legacy Takeda businesses are to our businesses held prior to our acquisition of Shire. References to Legacy Shire businesses are to those businesses acquired through the Shire acquisition.

This report includes certain pro forma information giving effect to the Shire acquisition as if it had occurred on April 1, 2018. This pro forma information has not been prepared in accordance with Article 11 of Regulation S-X. This pro forma information is presented for illustrative purposes and is based on certain assumptions and judgments based on information available to us as of the date hereof, which may not necessarily have been applicable if the Shire acquisition had actually happened as of April 1, 2018. Moreover, this pro forma information gives effect to certain transactions and other events which are not directly attributable to the Shire acquisition and/or which happened subsequently to the Shire acquisition, such as divestitures and the effects of the purchase price allocation for the Shire acquisition, and therefore may not accurately reflect the effect on our financial condition and results of operations if the Shire acquisition had actually been completed on April 1, 2018. Therefore, undue reliance should not be placed on the pro forma information included herein.
