Healios KK ( (JP:4593) ) has provided an update.

Healios K.K. has signed a letter of intent with Japanese pharmaceutical wholesaler Alfresa Corporation to establish a framework for the continuous sale and purchase of its human bone marrow-derived somatic stem cell culture supernatant, HLSI071. Building on an existing business alliance covering distribution and sales, the agreement is intended to secure stable, efficient nationwide distribution of the culture supernatant via Alfresa’s extensive network, enhancing timely delivery to customers. With the launch of its own manufacturing facility for culture supernatant, Healios will end earlier discussions on a potential manufacturing alliance with Alfresa group company Cell Resources, signaling a shift to in-house production while leveraging Alfresa for market access. The company stated that the arrangement is not expected to affect its consolidated financial results for the current fiscal year, but it strengthens its commercialization infrastructure in Japan’s regenerative medicine market.

The most recent analyst rating on (JP:4593) stock is a Sell with a Yen301.00 price target. To see the full list of analyst forecasts on Healios KK stock, see the JP:4593 Stock Forecast page.
