the right strategy to continue our track record of growth."

Interim management report 
 
 
Group performance 
Revenue for the Group increased by 7.2% to $321.5 million, compared to $299.9 
million in the first half of 2008.  On a constant currency basis, Group revenues 
increased by 11.0%.  During the period our Branded business continued to perform 
well and we saw a considerable improvement in our US Generics business compared 
to the first half of 2008.  These strong performances were partially offset by a 
decline in Injectables revenues compared to the first half of 2008, reflecting 
the impact of negative foreign exchange movements and our strategic decision to 
reduce private label sales in the US. 
 
 
Exchange rate movements had a negative impact on Group revenue of approximately 
$11.5 million, or 3.6%, and on Group operating profit of approximately $3.6 
million, or 6.3%. This resulted primarily from the strengthening of the US 
Dollar relative to the Euro, the Algerian Dinar, the Sudanese Pound and the 
Egyptian Pound. 
 
 
The Branded business continues to represent close to 60% of Group sales and the 
combined Branded and Injectables sales in MENA now make up 68% of total Group 
sales.

The Group's gross profit increased by 12.0% to $151.2 million, compared to 
$135.0 million in the first half of 2008. Group gross margin for the first half 
of 2009 was 47.0%, compared to 45.0% in the first half of 2008. This improvement 
primarily reflects the increase in profitability in our Generics business. 
 
 
Group operating expenses grew in the first half of 2009 by 6.9% to $94.0 
million, compared to $87.9 million in the first half of 2008, but as a 
percentage of sales remained relatively stable at 29.2%, compared to 29.3% in 
the first half of 2008.  The paragraphs below address the Group's main operating 
expenses in turn. 
 
 
Sales and marketing expenses totalled $47.3 million for the first half of the 
year, compared to $47.1 million in the first half of 2008, and decreased as a 
percentage of sales from 15.7% in the first half of 2008 to 14.7%. This 
improvement was a result of the economies of scale gained from the full 
integration of our acquisitions and increased Generics sales. 
 
 
General and administrative expenses increased by 13.0% to $31.7 million, 
compared to $28.0 million in the first half of 2008.  This increase comes mainly 
from corporate general and administrative costs, which reached $12.0 million, 
compared to $8.4 million in the first half of 2008, owing primarily to increased 
provisions for bad debt and increases in employee benefits.  General and 
administrative expenses as a percentage of sales increased to 9.9%, compared to 
9.3% in the first half of 2008. 
 
 
Investment in R&D decreased by 26.4% to $8.0 million, with total investment in 
R&D now representing 2.5% of Group revenue, compared to 3.6% in the first half 
of 2008. This decline comes as a result of our reduced investment in 
bioequivalence studies for our US Generics business as we re-assessed our 
priorities in the first half and our increased emphasis on targeting new 
in-licensing agreements for the Group. 
 
Other net operating expenses, which consist mainly of provisions against slow 
moving inventory items and foreign exchange gains or losses, increased by $5.1 
million to $7.0 million. This increase is due primarily to foreign exchange 
losses of $2.1 million, which resulted mainly from the depreciation in the 
Algerian and Sudanese currencies, and which compare to a $3.6 million foreign 
exchange gain in the first half of 2008. 
 
 
Operating profit for the Group increased by 21.5% to $57.2 million, compared to 
$47.1 million in the first half of 2008. Our Group operating margin reached 
17.8% compared to 15.7% in the first half of 2008. 
 
 
 
 
Branded 
 
 
H1 2009 highlights: 
 
 
  *  Branded revenues up 9.3%, or 12.5% in constant currency, to $190.2 million, 
  outperforming the underlying MENA market 
 
 
 
  *  Successful development of our cardiovascular and diabetes business and excellent 
  progress in the rollout of key in-licensed products 
 
 
 
Branded revenues increased by 9.3% in the first half to $190.2 million, compared 
to $174.0 million in the first half of 2008. In constant currency, Branded 
revenues increased by 12.5%.   Importantly, the Branded business continued to 
grow faster than the underlying MENA market, where growth has slowed compared to 
the first half of 2008. 
 
 
Focused sales and marketing efforts helped to increase customer demand across 
most Branded markets in the first half of the year. Significant focus was put on 
promoting new and recently launched products, developing our market position in 
key products and therapeutic areas, and building greater brand recognition. 
 
 
As a result of these efforts, Hikma is the largest regional pharmaceutical 
company in the MENA region and the fifth largest international pharmaceutical 
company in the MENA region, with a market share of 3.8%, up from 3.5% at the end 
of June 2008.2.. 
 
 
2   All market data sourced from IMS Health, YTD June 2009. Private retail sales 
only Includes Algeria, Jordan, Kuwait, Egypt, Tunisia, Morocco, UAE, Lebanon and 
Saudi Arabia. 
 
 
Sales in Algeria were particularly strong in the first half, as a result of 
excellent sales efforts, strong brand recognition, and our expanding product 
portfolio, which now includes an impressive range of cardiovascular products 
including the antihypertensives Blopress  (candesartan) and Iminopril 
(imidapril), the oral diabetes products Actos  (pioglitazone) and Glorion 
(glimepiride), and the dyslipidemia product Torvast  (atorvastatin).  At the end 
of June, our market share in Algeria had increased to 7.0%, compared to 5.9% at 
the end of June 2008. As of June 2009 we have grown to be the third largest 
pharmaceutical company and the largest generic pharmaceutical manufacturer by 
value in the Algerian market. 
 
 
In Saudi Arabia, our specialist cardiovascular sales team is focusing on 
building a leading position in the treatment of chronic heart conditions and 
diabetes and is making progress in developing sales of key products like 
Blopress , Actos  and Glorion . We have also seen strong demand from our 
hospital customers across our product portfolio.  At the end of June, our market 
share in Saudi Arabia had increased to 5.3%, compared to 5.0% at the end of June 
2008.   We are now the fourth largest pharmaceutical company by value in the 
Saudi market, compared to the fifth largest at the end of June 2008. 
 
 
In Jordan we have maintained our position as the market leader with a market 
share of 11.9%, down from 12.5% at the end of June 2008.  We delivered a strong 
performance in Jordan during the period, benefitting from the efficient 
integration of APM's sales and marketing staff. We also performed extremely well 
in the tenders awarded in the first half, which will help to drive sales in this 
market in the second half. 
 
 
In Egypt, we began the rollout of some of our key Branded products, including 
Actos  and Tanatril  (imidapril).  Six further launches are planned for the 
second half, including the launch of Blopress , Omnicef  and Mycamine .  At the 
end of June, our market share in Egypt was stable at 1.4%. 
 
 
Other markets that performed well during the first half were Sudan and Iraq, 
where we benefited from strong demand for our own brands, and Lebanon, where we 
launched some of our leading in-licensed products. 
 
Revenue from in-licensed products grew by 24.9% in the first half of 2009 to 
$73.5 million, representing 38.6% of Branded sales.  Actos  and Blopress  have 
now been launched in 13 markets, Blopress Plus  has been launched in 6 markets 
and Takepron  has been launched in 9 markets. Our cardiovascular sales team is 
working hard to establish these products as leading cardiovascular and diabetes 
brands in the MENA through a combination of medical education programmes, 
sponsorship of scientific conferences and targeted marketing campaigns. 
 
 
We continue our efforts to develop our portfolio of in-licensed products and 
have signed three new licensing agreements since the beginning of the year.  In 
June we signed an agreement with Teikoku Pharma USA for our own brand of 
Lidoderm , the first and only US FDA approved patch for post-herpetic neuralgia. 
This agreement covers the territories of Algeria, Morocco, Iraq, Libya, Sudan, 
and Tunisia.  In July, we signed two agreements with Faes Farma SA, a Spanish 
manufacturing company - one for the manufacturing and marketing of mesalazine, a 
generic product used for the treatment of inflammatory intestinal disease, and 
one for the license to manufacture and market the novel anti-histamine 
Bilastine . Both of these agreements cover the entire MENA region.  All of these 
agreements reflect our position as the partner of choice for marketing branded 
products in the region. 
 
 
During the first half of 2009, the Branded business launched a total of 
48 products across all markets, including five new compounds and 12 new dosage 
forms and strengths. The Branded business also received 22 regulatory approvals 
across the region, including five for new products. 
 
 
Gross profit in the Branded business increased by 7.3% to $100.9 million, 
compared to $94.0 million in the first half of 2008.  Reflecting the 
depreciation of the Algerian Dinar, the Sudanese Pound and the Egyptian Pound, 
the Branded business's gross margin declined by one percentage point to 53.0%, 
compared to 54.0% in the first half of 2008, 
 
 
Branded operating profit increased by 5.2% to $53.0 million, compared to $50.4 
million in the first half of 2008. Operating margin in the Branded business was 
27.9%, compared to 29.0% in 2008. This change is mainly due to the negative 
impact of exchange rates described above. 
 
 
Taking into account the seasonality of the Branded business and the first half 
slowdown in the underlying MENA market, we still expect to deliver strong growth 
in the Branded business for the full year. 
 
 
Injectables 
 
 
H1 2009 highlights: 
 
 
  *  Injectables revenues down 16.0% to $67.7 million and down 8.6% on a constant 
  currency basis 
 
 
 
  *  Obtained significant new injectable supply agreement in the US, effective from 
  July 2009 
 
 
 
Revenue in our global Injectables business decreased by 16.0% to $67.7 million 
compared $80.6 million in the first half of 2008.  As 44.3% of Injectable sales 
are Euro denominated, the strengthening of the US Dollar against the Euro, in 
addition to the depreciation of the Algerian Dinar and the Sudanese Pound, had 
an adverse impact on the segment's revenue.  On a constant currency basis, 
revenues decreased by 8.9%.In addition to the currency impact, the decline in 
Injectables sales is due to our strategic decision to reduce private label sales 
in our US business compared to the same period last year. 
 
 
+--------------------------+--------------------------+--------------------------+ 
| Injectables revenue by   | H1 2009                  | H1 2008                  |

+--------------------------+--------------------------+--------------------------+ 
 
 
MENA Injectables sales declined by 2.8% to $32.2 million, compared to $33.1 
million in the first half of 2008.  This decline is attributed to currency 
impact and the timing of tender sales. Growth in the second half will be 
generated by the realisation of these tender sales, an increase in sales in 
Iraq, an increasing contribution from existing markets like Lebanon and Jordan, 
and an initial contribution from newly launched oncology products. 
 
 
It is our strategy to prioritise our own label sales in the US.  We therefore 
reduced private label sales in our US Injectables business by $7.0 million, 
whilst our own label sales remained stable during the period.  As a result, US 
injectables sales declined by 56.9% to $5.5 million. We are limiting private 
label sales in order to improve the market potential of our own label products. 
Having successfully built a hospital sales force, we now have a greater 
capability to market our own label products and drive profitable sales going 
forward.  We expect to deliver a much stronger performance in the US in the 
second half of the year from our own label products and also as a result of a 
new supply agreement signed with a leading group purchasing organisation. 
Further sales growth will be driven by the four new product launches expected in 
the second half of the year. 
 
 
European injectable sales reached $30.0 million in the first half, down 13.6% 
from $34.8 million in the first half of 2008.  The decline is attributed mainly 
to the foreign exchange rate movements, which had a negative impact of 
approximately $4.6 million.  In addition to the negative impact of exchange 
rates, price erosion in the German market offset increased sales from new 
product launches and an increasing market share in some of our newer markets. 
 
 
During the first half of 2009, the Injectables business launched a total of 
21 products across all markets, including 5 new compounds and 10 new dosage 
forms and strengths. The Injectables business also received a total of 15 
regulatory approvals across all regions and markets, including 7 in MENA, 3 in 
Europe and 4 in the US. In the second half, we expect further sales will be 
driven by these launches and an additional 19 launches expected in the second 
half of the year. 
 
 
Injectables gross profit decreased by 13.6 % to $29.2 million, compared to $33.8 
million in the first half of 2008, with gross margin increasing to 43.2%, 
compared to 42.0% in the first half of 2008.  The increase in margin reflects a 
shift in the mix of Injectables sales towards the MENA region, currency impact 
and lower private label sales in the US. 
 
 
Injectables operating profit decreased by 33.6% to $8.9 million, compared to 
$13.5 million in the first half of 2008. Injectables operating margin decreased 
to 13.2% in the first half of 2009, down from 16.7% in the first half of 2008. 
This decline is explained by lower sales compounded by relatively fixed 
operating expenses. 
 
 
We remain confident that the performance of our Injectables business will 
improve in the second half of the year, particularly in the MENA region and the 
US, enabling us to deliver full year sales in line with 2008. 
 
 
Generics 
 
 
H1 2009 highlights: 
 
 
  *  Delivered significant improvement in Generics revenues, up 43.2% to $61.8 
  million 
 
 
 
  *  More than doubled gross margin to 33.8% 
 
 
 
Revenue in our Generics business increased by 43.2% to $61.8 million, compared 
to $43.1 million in the first half of 2008.  This strong performance reflects 
the actions of the strengthened management team and in particular focused sales, 
marketing and operational improvements.  It also reflects the changing 
competitive environment in the US, which has increased demand for our 
anti-infective products, our ability to successfully supply these products from 
our FDA-approved manufacturing facilities in the MENA region, and a healthy 
demand for a number of our US-produced products, including isosorbide 
mononitrate and digoxin. 
 
 
Over the past year we have rationalised our product portfolio and increased our 
focus on our higher margin products. We have seen significant volume increases 
for a number of our products and have implemented price increases across our 
portfolio.  Through focused sales targeting and improving service levels, we 
have been developing better relationships with key wholesale and retail 
customers, and are therefore improving the predictability of our revenue 
streams.   At the same time our operations have become more efficient. 
 
 
All of these actions led to an increase in Generics gross profit of 205.7% to 
$20.9 million, compared to $6.8 million in the first half of 2008. Gross margin 
more than doubled from 15.8% in the first half of 2008 to 33.8% in the first 
half of 2009.  Consequently, the Generics segment achieved an operating 
profit of $9.1 million in the first half of 2009, compared to an operating 
loss of $6.0 million in the first half of 2008. 
 
 
During the first half of 2009, the Generics business launched two new compounds 
in three new dosage forms and strengths. 
 
 
We are encouraged by the success we achieved in the Generics business in the 
first half. We expect an increase in market pressure in the second half of the 
year, but overall we are confident of delivering a strong performance for the 
full year. 
 
 
Other businesses 
Other businesses, which primarily comprise Arab Medical Containers, a 
manufacturer of plastic specialised packaging, and International Pharmaceuticals 
Research Centre, which conducts bio-equivalency studies, contributed revenues of 
$1.9 million, compared to revenue of $2.1 million in the first half of 2008. 
 
 
These other businesses delivered an operating loss of $1.9 million in the first 
half of 2009, compared to an operating loss of $2.3 million in the first half of 
2008.

*Totals include all compounds and formulations that are either launched, 
approved or pending approval across all markets. 
 
 
3   Products are defined as pharmaceutical compounds sold by the Group. New 
compounds are defined as pharmaceutical compounds not yet launched by the Group 
and existing compounds being introduced into a new segment. 
 
 
 
To ensure the continuous development of our product pipeline, we submitted 
165 regulatory filings in the first half of the year across all regions and 
markets. As of 30 June 2009, we had a total of 784 pending approvals across all 
regions and markets. 
 
 
We estimate the approximate addressable market for our portfolio of pending 
approvals to be approximately $27 billion, based on the 2008 full year sales of 
the currently marketed equivalent products in the markets covered by the pending 
approvals. 
 
 
At 30 June 2009, we had a total of 81 new products under development, the 
majority of which should receive several marketing authorisations for differing 
strengths and/or product forms over the next few years. 
 
 
Net finance expense 
Net finance expense decreased to $6.7 million, compared to $8.2 million in the 
first half of 2008 due to lower net debt levels as explained in the operating 
cash flow and investment section below. 
 
 
Profit before tax 
Profit before taxes for the Group increased by 28.5% to $50.5 million, compared 
to $39.3 million in the first half of 2008. 
 
 
Tax 
The Group incurred a tax expense of $6.5 million in the first half of 2009. The 
effective tax rate was 12.9%, a decrease of 2.3 percentage points on the 
comparable period of 2008. The decline in the effective tax rate is attributed 
the continued shift in the Group's overall geographic sales mix. 
 
 
Profit for the period 
The Group's profit attributable to equity holders of the parent increased by 
31.4% to $43.2 million for the six months to 30 June 2009. 
 
 
Earnings per share 
Diluted earnings per share for the six months to 30 June 2009 were 22.3 cents, 
up 31.2% from 17.0 cents in the first half of 2008. 
 
 
Dividend 
The Board has declared an interim dividend of 4.5 cents per share (approximately 
2.75 pence per share) to be paid on 16 October 2009 to eligible shareholders on 
the register at the close of business on 18 September 2009. The ex-dividend date 
is 16 September 2009. 
 
 
Operating cash flow and investment 
The Group achieved an overall improvement in its working capital indicators. 
Receivable days improved from 126 days as at 30 June 2008 to 115 days as at 30 
June 2009. Inventory days improved from 194 days to 179 days and payable days 
remained steady at 65 days. These improvements are a reflection of our continued 
focus on improving collections, especially in the MENA region, increased 
factoring of receivables and a leaner supply chain. 
 
 
Working capital improvements coupled with improved profitability led to a 
significant increase in operating cash flow to reach $36.2 million during the 
first half, compared to $5.4 million during the first half of 2008. 
 
 
Capital expenditures also declined to $14.3 million from $30.0 million due to 
lower capital expenditure needs following three years of substantial expansion 
projects. 
 
 
As a result, net debt decreased from $197.6 million at 30 June 2008 and 
$170.9 million as at 31 December 2008 to $164.4 million as at 30 June 2009 
keeping the Group in a very strong financing position. 
 
 
Principal risks and uncertainties 
The Group's business faces risks and uncertainties which could have a 
significant effect on its financial condition, results of operations or 
performance over the remaining six months of the financial year and could cause 
actual results to differ materially from expected and historical results. The 
directors do not consider that the principal risks and uncertainties have 
changed materially since the publication of the Annual Report & Accounts for the 
year ended 31 December 2008, which can be found on pages 51 to 57 of the Annual 
Report & Accounts, which is available at www.hikma.com, and which are summarised 
below. 
 
 
Operational risks 
Regulatory 
Hikma is subject to extensive regulation on the approval, manufacture and 
distribution of its products in all its markets. There is no single worldwide 
harmonised set of regulations relating to the development, manufacture and sale 
of pharmaceutical products, and these laws and regulations may be subject to 
unexpected change. This can create significant compliance costs, and can also 
increase the time it takes to realize the full penetration of products into all 
markets. 
 
 
Economic and political dynamics 
The Group operates in emerging markets. The failure of control, a change in the 
economic conditions or political environment or sustained civil unrest in any 
particular market or country could adversely affect the financial condition of 
the Group. 
 
 
Risk of interruption of production 
Product manufacture is subject to continual regulatory control, inspection and 
approval. Regulatory changes or compliance failure could result in interruptions 
to production. The Group's manufacturing facilities could also be disrupted for 
reasons beyond the Group's control such as fire, work force actions or other 
issues. 
 
 
Regulated and other suppliers 
The Group benefits from close commercial relationships with a number of key 
customers and suppliers. Damage to or loss of any of these relationships could 
have a direct and detrimental effect on the Group's results. In addition a 
compliance failure by any of our regulated suppliers could lead to delays in 
production or increased costs or liabilities. 
 
 
R&D and commercialisation of new products 
Group results may be impacted significantly by the timeliness of its research 
and development and product commercialisation activities. Additional costs may 
be incurred, and sales opportunities lost, if there is a significant delay in 
any of these steps. 
 
 
Competitor risk 
The Group operates in highly competitive markets with significant product 
innovations. We are subject to the threat of our competitors entering our 
markets, launching new products in existing markets and to pricing pressures on 
our existing products. 
 
 
Seasonality 
The Group's business, in particular the Branded Pharmaceuticals business, is 
seasonal, and generally experiences higher net sales and net profit in the first 
half of each financial year, as compared to the second half of its financial 
year. Accordingly, the Group's outstanding borrowings historically have been 
higher during the first half of the financial year in order to finance the 
working capital requirements of the Group. 
 
 
 
 
Financial risks 
 
 
Foreign exchange risk 
The Group uses the US Dollar as its reporting currency and is therefore exposed 
to foreign exchange movements, primarily in the European, Algerian, Sudanese and 
Egyptian currencies, that could materially affect the Group's financial results. 
 
 
 
Interest rate risk 
The Group manages its exposures to interest rate risks by changing the 
proportion of fixed rate debt and variable rate debt in its total debt 
portfolio. To manage this mix the Group may enter into interest rate swap 
agreements, in which it exchanges the periodic payments based on notional 
amounts and agreed upon fixed and variable interest rates. 
 
 
Credit Risk 
In most cases, the Group grants its buyers credit terms for settlement of sales 
invoices. Credit risk is managed through the Group Credit policy and the use of 
various financial instruments such as letters of credit, factoring and credit 
insurance arrangements. The Group has concentration of risk arising from 
significant balances with key customers in the MENA region and the US. 
 
 
Liquidity Risk 
The Group has constant financing requirements, both for short-term working 
capital needs and for long term strategic plans. The principal terms of the 
Group's committed debt facilities and the directors' view on the sufficiency of 
those facilities are described in note 2 to the condensed financial statements. 
 
 
 
 
Outlook 
Our expectations for the second half are positive and we re-iterate our guidance 
of delivering full year sales growth of approximately 10% on current exchange 
rates, or 15% in constant currency, with a 1% to 2% improvement in gross margin.

words such as "intends", "believes", anticipates" and "expects". Where included, 
these have been made by the Directors in good faith based on the information 
available to them up to the time of their approval of this announcement. By 
their nature, forward-looking statements are based on assumptions and involve 
inherent risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results or events to 
differ materially from those expressed or implied by the forward-looking 
statements, and should be treated with caution. These risks, uncertainties or 
assumptions could adversely affect the outcome and financial effects of the 
plans and events described in this announcement. Forward-looking statements 
contained in this announcement regarding past trends or activities should not be 
taken as a representation that such trends or activities will continue in the

INDEPENDENT REVIEW REPORT TO HIKMA PHARMACEUTICALS PLC 
 
 
We have been engaged by the company to review the condensed set of financial 
statements in the half-yearly financial report for the six months ended 30 June 
2009 which comprises the condensed consolidated statement of comprehensive 
income, the condensed consolidated balance sheet, the condensed consolidated 
statement of changes in equity, the condensed consolidated cash flow statement 
and related notes 1 to 13. We have read the other information contained in the 
half-yearly financial report and considered whether it contains any apparent 
misstatements or material inconsistencies with the information in the condensed 
set of financial statements. 
 
 
This report is made solely to the company in accordance with International 
Standard on Review Engagements (UK and Ireland) 2410 "Review of Interim 
Financial Information Performed by the Independent Auditor of the Entity" issued 
by the Auditing Practices Board. Our work has been undertaken so that we might 
state to the company those matters we are required to state to them in an 
independent review report and for no other purpose. To the fullest extent 
permitted by law, we do not accept or assume responsibility to anyone other than 
the company, for our review work, for this report, or for the conclusions we 
have formed. 
 
 
Directors' responsibilities 
 
 
The half-yearly financial report is the responsibility of, and has been approved 
by, the directors. The directors are responsible for preparing the half-yearly 
financial report in accordance with the Disclosure and Transparency Rules of the 
United Kingdoms' Financial Services Authority. 
 
 
As disclosed in note 1, the annual financial statements of the Group are 
prepared in accordance with IFRSs as adopted by the European Union. The 
condensed set of financial statements included in this half-yearly financial 
report has been prepared in accordance with International Accounting Standard 
34, "Interim Financial Reporting," as adopted by the European Union. 
 
 
Our responsibility 
 
 
Our responsibility is to express to the Company a conclusion on the condensed 
set of financial statements in the half-yearly financial report based on our 
review. 
 
 
Scope of Review 
 
 
We conducted our review in accordance with International Standard on Review 
Engagements (UK and Ireland) 2410, "Review of Interim Financial Information 
Performed by the Independent Auditor of the Entity" issued by the Auditing 
Practices Board for use in the United Kingdom. A review of interim financial 
information consists of making inquiries, primarily of persons responsible for 
financial and accounting matters, and applying analytical and other review 
procedures. A review is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in 
accordance with International Standards on Auditing (UK and Ireland) and 
consequently does not enable us to obtain assurance that we would become aware 
of all significant matters that might be identified in an audit. Accordingly, we 
do not express an audit opinion. 
 
 
Conclusion 
 
 
Based on our review, nothing has come to our attention that causes us to believe 
that the condensed set of financial statements in the half-yearly financial 
report for the six months ended 30 June 2009 is not prepared, in all material 
respects, in accordance with International Accounting Standard 34 as adopted by 
the European Union and the Disclosure and Transparency Rules of the United 
Kingdom's Financial Services Authority.

Notes: A review does not provide assurance on the maintenance and integrity of 
the website, including controls used to achieve this, and in particular on 
whether any changes may have occurred to the financial information since first 
published. These matters are the responsibility of the directors but no control 
procedures can provide absolute assurance in this area. 
 
 
Legislation in the United Kingdom governing the preparation and dissemination of 
financial information differs from legislation in other jurisdictions.

Hikma Pharmaceuticals PLC 
Notes to the condensed set of financial statements 
 
 
1. General information 
The financial information for the year ended 31 December 2008 does not 
constitute statutory accounts within the meaning of Section 240 of the Companies 
Act 1985. Statutory accounts for the year ended 31 December 2008, which were 
prepared under International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRSs) issued by the 
International Accounting Standards Board, have been filed with the Registrar of 
Companies. The auditors' report on those accounts was unqualified did not drawn 
attention to any matters by way of emphasis and did not contain any statement 
under Section 237 (2) or (3) of the Companies Act 1985. 
 
 
2. Accounting policies 
 
 
The unaudited condensed set of financial statements for the six months ended 30 
June 2009 have been prepared using the same accounting policies and on a basis 
consistent with the audited results for the year ended 31 December 2008, other 
than as noted below. The financial information has been prepared under the 
historical cost convention, except for the revaluation to market of certain 
financial assets and liabilities. 
 
 
Basis of preparation 
The currency used in the preparation of the accompanying consolidated financial 
statements is the US Dollar as the majority of the Group's business is conducted 
in US Dollars ($). 
 
 
Comparative figures for 30 June 2008 have been adjusted for revisions to the 
provisional acquisition balance sheet of the companies acquired by the Group in 
2007. Further details are provided in note 11. 
 
 
The Group's condensed consolidated financial statements included in this half 
yearly financial report are prepared in accordance with IAS 34 'Interim 
Financial Reporting' as adopted by the European Union. They were approved by the 
Board on 26 August 2009. 
 
 
Going concern 
Although the current economic conditions may affect short-term demand for our 
products, as well as place pressure on customers and suppliers which may face 
liquidity issues, the Group's geographic spread, product diversity and large 
customer and supplier base substantially mitigate these risks. 
In addition, the Group operates in the relatively defensive generic 
pharmaceuticals industry which we expect to be less affected compared to other 
industries that are subject to greater cyclical changes. 
The Group has $410 million of banking facilities of which $194 million were 
undrawn as at 30 June 2009. These facilities are well diversified across the 
operating subsidiaries of the Group with a number of financial institutions. 
Over 50% of the Group's short term and undrawn long term facilities are of a 
committed nature. 
We continue to expect the short term facilities to be renewed upon maturity. In 
addition the Group maintained cash balances of $51.6 million as at 30 June 2009. 
The Group's forecasts, taking into account reasonable possible changes in 
trading performance, facility renewal sensitivities and maturities of long-term 
debt, show that the Group should be able to operate well within the levels of 
its facilities and their related covenants. 
After making enquiries, the Directors believe that the Group is adequately 
placed to manage its business and financing risks successfully despite the 
current uncertain economic outlook. Accordingly, they continue to adopt the 
going concern basis in preparing the half yearly condensed financial statement.

2.    Accounting policies continued 
 
 
Changes in accounting policy 
In the current financial year, the Group has adopted International Financial 
Reporting Standard 8 "Operating Segments" and IAS 1 "Presentation of Financial 
Statements" (revised 2007). 
 
 
IFRS 8 requires operating segments to be identified on the basis of internal 
reports about components of the Group that are regularly reviewed by the Chief 
Executive to allocate resources to the segments and to assess their performance. 
In contrast, the predecessor Standard (IAS 14 "Segment Reporting") required the 
Group to identify sets of segments (Business and Geographical), using a risks 
rewards approach, with the Group's system of internal financial reporting to key 
management personnel serving only as the starting point for the identification 
of such segments. The segmental information required by IAS 34 which is included 
in note 3 below is presented in accordance with IFRS 8. 
IAS 1(revised) requires the presentation of a statement of changes in equity as 
a primary statement, separate from the income statement and statement of 
comprehensive income. As a result a condensed consolidated statement of changes 
in equity has been included in the primary statements, showing changes in each 
component of equity for each period presented. 
Exceptional items are defined as those that are material in nature or amount and 
are non-recurring. Exceptional items are disclosed separately in the condensed 
consolidated income statement to assist in the understanding of the financial 
performance of the Group.

3. Business and geographical segments 
 
 
For management purposes, the Group is currently organised into three operating 
divisions - Branded    , Injectables and Generics. These divisions are the basis 
on which the Group reports its primary segment information. The segments 
identified under IFRS 8 are unchanged from those previously disclosed under IAS 
14. 
Segment information about these businesses is presented below.
