Continued focus on brain disorders

Strong revenue, solid growth and consolidated business are the key words that sum up Lundbeck's performance over the past year.

I am pleased to report satisfactory results for 2010. The results we have achieved should be viewed in the context of intensified generic competition in a number of markets and a global economic crisis that compelled governments in many countries to adopt healthcare reforms, leading to noticeable ceilings on pharmaceutical prices and reimbursement.

The progress we have achieved is attributable to our main products which continue to sell well and win market shares and the fact that we have kept our costs down in spite of a higher level of activity. Over the past few years, we have been preparing for the loss of exclusivity in a number of our key products in 2012-2014. We have been dealing with this challenge by maximising our existing business, intensifying the development of late-stage projects and sharpening our focus on acquisitions, partnering and in-licensing.

As a result of these efforts, we will continue to be a profitable company with strong cash flows in the 2012-2014 transition period. We will continue to pursue growth opportunities during this time and secure long-term growth for Lundbeck.

Brain disorders among the most disabling conditions

Lundbeck pursues a vision of being a leading provider of therapeutics for the treatment of brain disorders. Our value creation is driven by our ability to invent, develop and ensure the dissemination of innovative pharmaceuticals.

Brain disorders are among the most disabling conditions for patients and also a type of disability that absolutely costs most in societal terms, and their prevalence is expected to rise in the years ahead. By 2030, depression, dementia and alcohol dependence are expected to be among the five diseases in high-income countries that have the highest disability-adjusted life years score1 . In Europe alone, brain disorders account for 35% of total direct and indirect healthcare costs2 , and depression-related costs to society represent 1% of the gross domestic product in Europe.

Anyone who in some way has been affected by brain disorders knows how disabling these disorders are for patients and their relatives. Each time we are approached by patients, it confirms our belief that these are truly some of the most serious disorders, and it underlines the importance of developing and offering effective treatments.

We have what it takes

In 2010, Lundbeck announced a new research strategy which will enable it, also going forward, to deliver ground-breaking pharmaceuticals that can improve the quality of life for patients suffering from brain disorders.

In recent years, research conducted around the world has produced new knowledge about disease biology and the biological relationships and mechanisms believed to be the fundamental causes of many brain disorders. This enables us to develop pharmaceuticals targeting the underlying mechanisms of these disorders, allowing us not only to treat the symptoms more effectively, but also to affect the progress of the disorders.

The new strategy is the foundation that in the long term will help us discover and develop pharmaceuticals that may help and treat biologically defined groups of patients with brain disorders. It is this type of pharmaceuticals we expect to be in demand in the future.

management's review

The second key element of Lundbeck's new research strategy is increased external cooperation through more partnerships, with researchers at academic institutions, colleges, universities and other biotech and pharmaceutical companies all over the world.

Research and development in the field of brain disorders involves a great deal of risk, and it takes a long time to produce results in the form of marketed pharmaceuticals. A key prerequisite for success is that we handle our shareholders' willingness to take risk and their trust with the greatest respect.

On behalf of Lundbeck's management, Supervisory Board and employees, I would like to thank our shareholders, customers and collaborative partners for the interest they have shown in Lundbeck in 2010.

Management's review

  • Lundbeck had another successful and eventful year
  • Annual revenue of DKK 14,765 million – the company's highest ever
  • Profit for the year up by 23% to DKK 2,466 million.

2010 was characterised by solid revenue growth for Lundbeck's key products, continuing improvement in earnings and distinct progress in our clinical development pipeline. We are particularly satisfied with our operations in light of the more difficult market conditions, which, as expected, were challenging in 2010.

Satisfactory results

The Supervisory Board and Executive Management are very pleased to present full-year results for 2010 in line with expectations.

Revenue for the year was up by 7% to DKK 14,765 million. Measured at constant exchange rates, the growth rate was 4%. The improvement was driven by positive growth for our three main products, Cipralex®, Ebixa® and Azilect®, as well as by increased sales of our two most recent products, Xenazine® and Sabril®, which were launched in the US market in 2008 and 2009, respectively.

The positive and satisfactory improvement in annual revenue should be viewed especially in the light of new healthcare reforms and mandatory price reductions in a number of Lundbeck's important markets. Furthermore, we experienced intensified generic competition in 2010.

Profit from operations before depreciation and amortisation (EBITDA) amounted to DKK 4,393 million.

Profit from operations (EBIT) was DKK 3,357 million, a 17% increase on 2009. The EBIT margin was 22.7%, against 20.8% in 2009. Lundbeck recorded an increase in earnings primarily due to higher revenue and lower research and development costs compared with 2009.

With the figures above, Lundbeck thus fully met the financial guidance presented in the annual report for 2009, and revised in November 2010.

Research and development expenses amounted to DKK 3,045 million, or 20.6% of consolidated revenue, which was 5% less than in 2009. The decline was due to the fact that costs associated with two clinical phase II trials, zicronapine with the potential to treat a number of psychiatric and neurological diseases and Lu AA24530 for the treatment of depression, were lower than the year before because they were completed in 2009. In addition, Lundbeck no longer incurs expenses related to the registration application for Serdolect® for the treatment of schizophrenia in the US.

The tax percentage for 2010 was 25.0%, consistent with the expected tax rate of 24-25% that we communicated in our annual report for 2009.

Profit for the year was up by 23% to DKK 2,466 million. Lundbeck's Supervisory Board will propose to the Annual General Meeting that a dividend of 30% of net profit be paid for the year, corresponding to DKK 3.77 per share.

Lundbeck once again recorded a positive cash flow from operating and investing activities after the acquisition of our US subsidiary Lundbeck Inc. in 2009. We thus report a cash inflow from operating and investing activities of DKK 2,462 million in 2010, against an outflow of DKK 2,040 million in 2009.

At the end of 2010, Lundbeck had net cash of DKK 430 million, against DKK -1,456 million at the end of 2009.

For a detailed financial review for 2010, see p. 54.

"With the submission of a new drug application and with the potential approval of escitalopram in Japan, we will be able to offer our most successful product to date to a new large market ."

Pipeline progress

In 2010, we recorded positive progress in our development projects.

In the first half, we received positive data from clinical phase III trials in Japan with escitalopram (Lexapro®) for the treatment of depression, and in September our partner in Japan, Mochida Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd., submitted a new drug application with the Japanese health authorities.

Towards the end of the year, based on positive clinical phase III data, we submitted a new drug application for clobazam for the treatment of Lennox-Gastaut syndrome with the FDA. Subject to approval, clobazam will be marketed under the brand name Onfi™. In addition, data from clinical phase III with nalmefene for the treatment of alcohol dependence supported Lundbeck's plans for submission of an MAA in Europe in the second half of 2011.

Since mid 2009, we have received positive data for Lu AA21004 for the treatment of depression, and against that background we initiated an extended clinical phase III programme in May 2010 in collaboration with our Japanese partner Takeda Pharmaceutical Company Limited. We expect to submit a new drug application during 2012. Lu AA24530, also for the treatment of depression and also being developed in collaboration with Takeda, has now completed clinical phase II, where it has shown statistically significant improvements and good tolerability.

Zicronapine is a new compound with the potential to treat a number of psychiatric and neurological diseases. In clinical phase II zicronapine has demonstrated efficacy in schizophrenia combined with a low risk of extrapyramidal side effects (movement disturbances) and the compound entered clinical phase III.

We also initiated clinical phase I trials with Lu AE04621, a new compound for the treatment of Parkinson's disease, and within the same disease area in October we in-licensed the rights to the preclinical compound KW-6356 from Japanese Kyowa Hakko Kirin Co., Ltd.

We discontinued the development of Lu AE58054 in clinical phase II in schizophrenia, but the compound will continue in clinical phase II in Alzheimer's disease. Furthermore, patient enrolment was slower than anticipated in our clinical phase III programme with desmoteplase for the treatment of stroke.

Other clinical trials progressed according to plan.

New research strategy

In 2010, we implemented a new research strategy which will enable us, also going forward, to deliver innovative pharmaceuticals for the treatment of people suffering from brain disorders. With this new strategy, our future research and development activities will be increasingly based on the biological relationships and mechanisms in the brain believed to be the fundamental causes of many brain disorders.

One of the elements of the new strategy is increased collaboration with external parties. Consistent with this approach, in October we launched a research collaboration with Denmark/US-based Genmab A/S. The agreement provides Lundbeck with access to Genmab's broad antibody development capabilities and an opportunity to take selected antibodies into clinical development. In December, Lundbeck also entered into research collaboration with Zenobia Therapeutics, Inc., US, and Vernalis plc., UK, concerning a new technology to be used in research in areas such as Parkinson's disease.

See a detailed description of our research and development activities, including the new strategy, on p. 12.

Strengthened growth foundation

In addition to generic competition and healthcare reforms, patent expiry for some of our key products during the period 2012-2014 is an important part of our reality. We cannot avoid recording an adverse impact on our revenue in connection with these patent expiries. However, in recent years we have prepared for the situation, and in 2010 we further strengthened our foundation for future growth.

In October, we in-licensed the rights to asenapine (Sycrest®/Saphris®) for the treatment of bipolar disorder and schizophrenia from US-based Merck & Co., Ltd. Lundbeck has acquired the rights in all markets outside the US, China and Japan,

Lundbeck's development pipeline Overview of our pipeline compounds.

and the compound is already approved in all 27 EU member states for the treatment of bipolar disorder under the name Sycrest®. Scheduled for launch in 2011, Sycrest® is expected to contribute positively to our revenue.

We also strengthened a number of our already marketed products in 2010. With the submission of a new drug application and with the potential approval of escitalopram for the treatment of depression in Japan, we will be able to offer our most successful product to date to a new large market. Together with our partner Mochida and Mitsubishi Tanabe Pharma Corporation1 , Japan, we hope to launch escitalopram in Japan in the second half of 2011. In December, we announced that we are strengthening our collaboration with Xian-Janssen Pharmaceutical Ltd., China, intensifying our joint marketing and sales efforts behind Lexapro® in the Chinese market. Finally, we hope that our new drug application for clobazam in the US will result in a launch at the beginning of 2012.

Furthermore, in 2010 we acquired the marketing rights to Azilect® for the treatment of Parkinson's disease in six Asian countries, including China and South Korea. In the course of the year, the profile of the product was further strengthened through the publication of the TEMPO study, showing clear benefits of early treatment with Azilect®.

Global presence

By acquiring our US subsidiary Lundbeck Inc. in 2009 and hereby establishing operations in the US market, Lundbeck became a truly global company with a commercial presence in largely all major markets for brain disorders. The large number of promising compounds in clinical development which we accessed through Lundbeck Inc. included clobazam, for which the development was completed in 2010 and a new drug application submitted. In our portfolio of already launched pharmaceuticals, Xenazine® for the treatment of Huntington's disease experienced satisfactory growth in 2010, whilst we experienced slowerthan-anticipated patient recruitment for Sabril® for the treatment of epilepsy.

In 2010, we consolidated our global position by entering into a number of new partnerships/collaborative agreements: We launched a collaboration with Genmab concerning human antibodies, Kyowa Hakko in respect of KW-6356, Merck in respect of Sycrest®/ Saphris® and Zenobia and Vernalis concerning new technology for use in research in areas such as Parkinson's disease. The Xian-Janssen collaboration also regarding Lexapro® strengthened this position.

Realignment of employee performance

In 2010, Lundbeck launched a new global high performance management process, the aim of which is to ensure that the goals of each employee support the company's objectives to a greater extent than previously. As part of these endeavours, we have introduced four new types of behaviour to help us achieve the goals. This means that all employees will henceforth not only be evaluated on the basis of target fulfilment but also on the ways in which they have reached their goals. The evaluations will also be used in Lundbeck's management development programmes with a view to ensuring that our managers are equipped to demonstrate the required behaviour and assist their teams in making the behaviour relevant in their areas.

Outlook

Lundbeck's outlook is associated with great uncertainties relating to patent expiry, healthcare reforms and the economic climate in general. However, we believe that it is important to communicate our expectations for Lundbeck's financial performance in the years ahead. In November 2010, we announced our financial floor guidance for the period 2011-2014, and we now wish to specify our guidance for 2011.

Lundbeck expects that revenue for 2011 will rise to DKK 15.3-15.8 billion, EBIT is expected to be DKK 3.3-3.6 billion and profit for the year is expected to be DKK 2.3-2.6 billion.

Disclaimer

Forward-looking statements are subject to risks, uncertainties and inaccurate assumptions. This may cause actual results to differ materially from expectations.

Various factors may affect future results, including interest rates and exchange rate fluctuations, delay or failure of development projects, production problems, unexpected contract breaches or terminations, government-mandated or market-driven price decreases for products, introduction of competing products, Lundbeck's ability to successfully market both new and existing products, exposure to product liability and other lawsuits, changes in reimbursement rules and governmental laws and unexpected growth in expenses.

Important events reported after the end of the year

In January 2011, clinical phase III studies with nalmefene for the treatment of alcohol dependence confirm that the compound is efficacious and safe. Data support the plans for submission of an MAA in Europe in the second half of 2011.

In February 2011 Lundbeck was granted the commercial rights in Canada and Latin America to six products with indications in brain disorders and cancer from Cephalon, Inc.

Research and development

  • Brain disorders rank among the most burdensome illnesses in high-income countries, and significant unmet needs persist
  • Lundbeck has more than 50 years of experience in brain disorder research
  • Lundbeck's new research strategy aims to use disease biology in the development of new and innovative pharmaceuticals.

Lundbeck's development pipeline (number of compounds)

New research strategy

  • •We have implemented a new research strategy
  • The strategy is based on recent knowledge about disease biology
  • The intention is to develop new innovative pharmaceuticals for the treatment of brain disorders.

Our principal contribution to the world around us is the knowledge that enables us to offer new medical treatments to people suffering from a brain disorder. Our products and know-how are crucial for the patients who need correct diagnosis and treatment.

Lundbeck has actively developed and marketed pharmaceuticals for the treatment of brain disorders for more than 50 years. During that period, we have contributed to many research breakthroughs and helped develop numerous new and superior treatments.

We still wish to be a leader in the area, and in order to retain this position and, by extension, our competitiveness, we need to regularly invest in the development of new and superior products. In 2010, Lundbeck invested DKK 3,045 million in research and development, corresponding to about 20% of our revenue. This is higher than the pharmaceutical industry average of approximately 15%1 .

Lundbeck's high level of investment reflects the fact that it is very expensive to conduct research and development in the field of brain disorders, and also that we have many relatively expensive late-stage projects.

The world's most burdensome illnesses

According to the World Health Organization (WHO), brain disorders involve one of the heaviest burdens on society. Nevertheless, treatment offers are still inadequate, and many unmet needs persist.

Because of the lack of optimum treatments for a large number of brain disorders, there is still a huge growth potential both within neurology and psychiatry. As Lundbeck's pharmaceuticals cover only a small share of the aggregate market for treatment of brain disorders, it is still very attractive for us to develop new pharmaceuticals in this area.

The three focus areas of Lundbeck's research strategy

Neurodegeneration Neurodegenerative diseases are characterised by the gradual loss of neuronal structure or function. There is a large unmet medical need in the area.

Neuroinflammation Neuroinflammatory diseases are diseases that involve inflammatory reactions in the brain. There is a vast treat-

ment potential in the area.

Synaptic transmission

The change in the transmission of signals that occurs in and between nerve cells may result in a number of brain disorders. There is a substantial unmet medical need in the area.

As the brain is a complex organ, neurological research and development involves major challenges. This makes it difficult to develop pharmaceuticals that have the right effect, and treatments are also hampered by the challenge of getting the pharmaceuticals from the bloodstream into the brain. Finally, it is difficult to accurately diagnose brain disorders.

Lundbeck also faces great challenges in its research into and development of new pharmaceuticals for the treatment of illnesses of the brain. Based on our experience, focus and know-how, we believe we can still envision new ways of identifying pharmaceuticals. We are among the five or six largest companies conducting research into brain disorders, and we have a well-established network with other scientific groups.

New biology-focused strategy

In order to strengthen Lundbeck's initiatives in the field of brain disorders and to consistently be able to provide treatments that are valuable to others and to Lundbeck, we have for some time worked intensively to define a new research strategy.

The purpose of the strategy is to develop innovative products that will lead to improved treatments for people with brain disorders whilst also securing continued growth for Lundbeck. The strategy builds on new knowledge about disease biology and the biological relationships and mechanisms in the brain believed to be the fundamental causes of many brain disorders. This knowledge allows us to develop pharmaceuticals better capable of treating the symptoms and potentially affect the underlying mechanisms of disease progression. We are confident that improved understanding of the underlying disease biology is the next step in the development of superior therapeutics.

The implementation of the strategy was started in September 2010, and Lundbeck's future research will be focused on the three key biological areas: neurodegeneration (gradual loss of neuronal structure or function), neuroinflammation (inflammatory reactions in the brain) and synaptic transmission (transmission of signals between nerve cells). These areas are relevant for a large number of brain disorders, including depression, schizophrenia, Parkinson's, Alzheimer's and Huntington's diseases.

Increased level of external collaboration

In order to secure access to the right competencies, we increasingly seek to enter into collaborations and partnerships with external research groups and institutions and create flexibility by outsourcing activities when appropriate. We will apply our in-house resources to the most critical and value-creating parts of our research and development efforts, thereby optimising the returns on the funds we plough back into research and development.

As a result of our new research strategy, we entered into research collaboration with Denmark/US-based Genmab A/S in October. The agreement provides Lundbeck with access to Genmab's broad antibody development capabilities and an opportunity to take selected antibodies into clinical development with a view to developing biologic pharmaceuticals in the longer term. Lundbeck also entered into research collaboration with Zenobia Therapeutics, Inc., US, and Vernalis plc., UK, concerning a new technology to be used in research in areas such as Parkinson's disease.

The future

It will take a number of years before the results of our new research strategy will benefit people with brain disorders. It will take many years until the discoveries we make now are brought to market. In the intervening period, the expected group of new products in the market will be based on discoveries derived from our previous research strategy and initiatives.

Brain disorders – an area with a substantial medical need

Brain disorders cover a number of diseases that may be classified as psychiatric and neurological disorders. Lundbeck has activities in a number of these diseases, and this broad focus allows us to capitalise on synergies and related research and development opportunities.

Pipeline progress

  • Strong pipeline progress in 2010
  • Two new drug applications submitted in the US and Japan, respectively
  • One new compound entered clinical phase I.

By maintaining a high level of investment in clinical development projects, we have secured pipeline diversification. In recent years, the bulk of our investments has been in late-stage projects, which we expect will be brought to market in the years to come. We have a number of new and exciting pharmaceutical candidates under development in depression, anxiety and psychotic disorders and in alcohol dependence, epilepsy, stroke and Parkinson's disease.

Developments in 2010

In 2010, Lundbeck submitted a new drug application for escitalopram (Lexapro®) for the treatment of depression in Japan together with our Japanese partner Mochida Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd. and for clobazam (Onfi™) for the treatment of Lennox-Gastaut syndrome (epilepsy) in the US. We received data for nalmefene for the treatment of alcohol dependence, supporting our plans for submission of an MAA in the second half of 2011.

We launched an extended clinical phase III programme with Lu AA21004 for the treatment of depression in collaboration with our Japanese partner Takeda Pharmaceutical Company Limited. Also in collaboration with Takeda and for the treatment of depression, Lu AA24530 has completed clinical phase II where the compound has produced statistically significant improvements and good tolerability. Zicronapine, which has shown potential in a number of psychiatric and neurological diseases, showed an effect in clinical phase II in schizophrenia combined with a low risk of extrapyramidal side effects (movement disturbances) and advanced to clinical phase III. In Parkinson's disease treatment, we launched Lu AE04621 in clinical phase I, and from Kyowa Hakko Kirin Co., Ltd., Japan, we in-licensed KW-6356 in preclinical research. Lu AE58054, which is being investigated in schizophrenia and Alzheimer's disease, was discontinued in 2010 in clinical phase II in schizophrenia, but the compound continues in clinical phase II in Alzheimer's disease. Patient enrolment was slower than anticipated in our clinical phase III programme with desmoteplase for the treatment of stroke. Other clinical trials progressed according to plan.

At present, our development portfolio1 consists of:

  • Two products under regulatory review
  • Five projects in clinical phase III
  • Four projects in clinical phase II
  • Three projects in clinical phase I

Our development portfolio has the potential to bring a number of new products to market over the next few years, thereby providing patients with improved treatments and adding considerable value to Lundbeck.

Optimum product launches prepared through close collaboration

To support successful future product launches, we further intensified cooperation between our development organisation and the commercial area in 2010 by setting up a function for global product strategy and portfolio development. We also established a dedicated competency area with the aim of pooling epidemiological, medical and financial know-how. One of the initial key priorities of this cooperation will be to prepare strategy plans for Lu AA21004 and nalmefene. Other projects will follow.

Priorities in 2011

In 2011, our priority is still our late-stage projects, including:

  • ensure optimum execution of the clinical phase III trials with Lu AA21004 for the treatment of depression
  • prepare the registration and optimum launch of nalmefene for the treatment of alcohol dependence
  • ensure an optimum registration process for and launch of clobazam for the treatment of Lennox-Gastaut syndrome in the US
  • ensure an optimum start-up of clinical phase III trials with zicronapine with the potential in the treatment of a number of psychiatric and neurological diseases
  • further optimise the clinical development programme with Lu AA24530 for the treatment of depression
  • execute clinical phase III trials with desmoteplase for the treatment of stroke.
  • 1) Lundbeck has a substantial portfolio of early-stage candidates which we do not publish for a number of reasons. However, in 2010 we announced a specific preclinical project

Facts about Lundbeck's disease areas

Alcohol dependence

  • Alcohol is toxic to most body organs, which can be harmed by the intake of alcohol. • Excessive consumption of alcohol can have serious social consequences, while also increasing the risk of developing a number
  • of diseases such as cardiovascular disease, cerebral atrophy, stomach ulcer, liver cirrhosis and certain types of cancer. • In the Western world, one in ten deaths is alcohol-related.

Psychotic disorders

  • Schizophrenia is the most common psychotic disorder. It is often chronic and may lead to pronounced changes in the patient's perception of reality, for example in the form of hallucinations and delusions. Cognitive dysfunction makes it difficult to think straight and convert thoughts into action.
  • Bipolar disorder (manic depression) is another form of psychotic disorder that is difficult to diagnose. The mood of the patient is affected and can cycle between depression and mania. Patients often experience an impaired level of functioning, ruined personal relationships and suicide attempts.

Acute ischaemic stroke

  • An ischaemic stroke occurs when the blood supply to a part of the brain is suddenly interrupted (ischaemic) by a blood clot in the brain.
  • Symptoms of a stroke include sudden numbness/weakness, especially on one side of the body, confusion, and loss of balance or coordination skills.
  • Stroke is the primary reason for serious disability in the industrialised world and one of the leading causes of death.

Friedreich's ataxia

  • Friedreich's ataxia is a hereditary disease characterised by the degeneration of nerve tissue in the spinal cord and of nerves that control muscle movement in the arms and legs.
  • The disease results in gait, speech problems and heart diseases.
  • Although rare, the disease is the most prevalent hereditary ataxia. It affects one in every 50,000 people in the Caucasian population.

Huntington's disease

  • Huntington's disease is a hereditary neurodegenerative disease that results in uncontrolled movements, emotional disturbances, and mental deterioration.
  • The most common symptom of Huntington's disease is chorea, which is characterised by involuntary, jerky movements. As the disease progresses, the symptoms worsen, making it difficult for individuals to speak, eat and get dressed.
  • The average survival time after diagnosis of the illness is 15-20 years.

Alzheimer's disease

  • Alzheimer's disease is the most common form of dementia. Nerve cells in the brain are lost, causing a gradual functional deterioration of the brain.
  • Alzheimer's disease primarily affects those in middle and old age.
  • Symptoms in the mild stage are forgetfulness, changes in personality and confusion. Disorientation, delusions and language problems follow. In the severe stage, patients gradually lose the ability to communicate, eat and drink.

Epilepsy

  • Epilepsy is a chronic neurological disorder characterised by recurrent seizures that can vary from the briefest lapses of attention or muscle jerks to severe and prolonged convulsions.
  • Infantile spasms is a difficult-to-treat form of epilepsy that strikes infants. The disease is characterised by muscle spasms and often also retarded mental and motor development.
  • Lennox-Gastaut syndrome is a difficult-to-treat form of epilepsy affecting children aged 2-8 years. Characteristics of the disease are atypical absence seizures for prolonged periods and drop attacks in which the muscles suddenly lose their strength.

Depression/anxiety

  • Depression is a common and partly hereditary disease with symptoms such as melancholy, loss of energy, difficulty concentrating and suicidal thoughts.
  • Depression can strike anyone, but certain social and biological factors make some people more predisposed to this disorder than others.
  • Patients have trouble holding on to their job, keeping up with their studies and/or maintaining their family life and social contacts.

Parkinson's disease

  • Parkinson's disease is a chronic and progressive brain disorder that usually affects people over the age of 60.
  • Typical symptoms are tremors, stiffness, slow movements and impaired balance.
  • As the disease progresses, the symptoms grow worse, and the patient will most likely experience motor function problems. Ultimately, Parkinson's impairs the patient's ability to function in daily life situations.

nalmefene blocks the mechanism in the brain that produces the desire to drink alcohol, thus allowing the user to control and limit the intake of alcohol. Nalmefene is to be taken according to need, whereas other pharmaceuticals must be taken following prior abstinence from alcohol and are used continuously over a longer period of time. At the end of 2010, we received data supporting our plans for submission of an MAA in Europe in the second half of 2011. The compound is in-licensed from Biotie Therapies Corp. of Finland.

Like the rest of the world, the pharmaceutical market was impacted by a challenging economic climate in 2010. In many countries around the world, the global economic crisis compelled governments to carry out healthcare reforms, leading to noticeable limitations on pharmaceutical prices and reimbursement. Lundbeck also felt the impact of these measures, and our products in Greece, Spain, Germany and a number of other countries were exposed to mandatory price reductions, which adversely affected our revenue.

We recorded satisfactory growth for most of our key products in 2010, but at the same time we are increasingly challenged by generic products. Based on our very strong patents, we successfully defended our rights and the market position of our products again in 2010. However, despite its otherwise strong market position, Cipralex® met with competition from generic products i countries such as Australia, Canada and Spain.

Europe

Europe is the world's second-largest region for pharmaceuticals for the treatment of brain disorders, and according to the most recent IMS data, the market was valued at USD 33 billion, or 28% of the combined world market2 . Representing 53% of total revenue, Europe remains Lundbeck's largest market, and in 2010 we generated revenue of DKK 7,815 million in the region, an increase of 8% on 2009.

Cipralex® continues on its growth path in Europe and remains the most frequently prescribed branded antidepressant in the region. Also measured in terms of value, Cipralex® is the market's largest antidepressant, commanding a share of 20.3% of the total market for antidepressants in Europe in November 2010, as compared with a market share of 19.7% in November 2009. Cipralex® generated revenue of DKK 3,929 million in 2010, an increase of 6% on 2009. The increase was driven by rising market shares in a number of markets and continuing recognition of Cipralex® as a leading antidepressant. In 2010, generic escitalopram was launched in Finland, Norway and Spain, adversely affecting our revenue.

Ebixa® also continued its positive trend in Europe, generating revenue of DKK 2,040 million in 2010, an increase of 13% on 2009. The increase was driven both by rising market shares and growth in the underlying market. Ebixa® once again recorded strong growth in Italy, where it was made eligible for reimbursement in 2009, and in November 2010 it had a market share of 27.7%, compared to 23.5% in November 2009. In the last quarter of the year, The National Institute for Health and Clinical Excellence (NICE), which acts as counsel to the National Health Service in England and Wales, resolved to support the use of products such as Ebixa® for the treatment of Alzheimer's disease. It is expected to have a positive impact going forward. In November 2010, Ebixa® commanded a market share of 18.9% of the European Alzheimer's market, compared with a market share of 17.2% in November 2009. Memantine, the active ingredient in Ebixa®, is still the second-most prescribed pharmaceutical in Europe for the treatment of Alzheimer's disease.

Sales of Azilect® in Europe also surged, rising 33% on 2009 to DKK 932 million. As more and more doctors become aware of the outcome of the ADAGIO study, which substantiates that early treatment with Azilect® delays progression of Parkinson's disease3 , Azilect® is increasingly selected as first-line treatment of Parkinson's disease. The results of the TEMPO study4 were presented in 2010, substantiating clear benefits of early treatment with Azilect®. At the end of 2009, Azilect® became eligible for reimbursement in France. Based on the most successful launch to date in France of a pharmaceutical to treat Parkinson's disease measured in terms of sales growth, Azilect® held a market share of 13.5% in November 2010. Azilect® held 10.4% of the European market for pharmaceuticals for the treatment of Parkinson's disease in November 2010. The corresponding market share in 2009 was 8.0%.

USA

Representing a combined value of USD 61 billion, the US is the world's largest market for pharmaceuticals for the treatment of brain disorders5 . The market contracted by 2% relative to 2009 and according to the latest IMS data it accounted for 54% of the total world market for pharmaceuticals for the treatment of brain disorders. The negative growth was due primarily to patent expiry for a number of pharmaceuticals and the subsequent launch of cheaper generics. Lundbeck's revenue in the US in 2010 accounted for 25% of our total revenue, rising 2% on 2009 to DKK 3,722 million.

Revenue USA 2006-2010 (DKKm)

Lundbeck's leading pharmaceutical, escitalopram, is marketed in the US by our partner Forest Laboratories, Inc. under the Lexapro® brand. Lexapro® generated revenue of DKK 2,443 million in 2010, which was on a level with 2009. In November 2010, Lexapro® commanded a market share of 24.4%, compared with a market share of 23.6% in November 2009.

Having acquired our US subsidiary Lundbeck Inc. in 2009, Lundbeck gained access to a number of promising compounds in clinical development, of which clobazam (Onfi™) for the treatment of Lennox-Gastaut syndrome is now fully developed. A new drug application has been submitted to the FDA. The acquisition also provided us with access to a number of pharmaceuticals already on the market.

Lundbeck Inc. recorded revenue of DKK 1,279 million in 2010, an increase of 8% on 20096 . The increase was driven by sales of the subsidiary's two most recently launched pharmaceuticals, Xenazine® and Sabril®, and as expected sales were adversely affected by declining revenue for the company's other pharmaceuticals, primarily owing to generic competition.

5) IMS 2009

The sales improvement for Xenazine® was satisfactory in 2010, and relative to 2009 revenue was up 97% to DKK 577 million. At the end of 2010, more than 2,700 patients were being treated with Xenazine®, compared to just over 2,000 patients at the end of 2009.

After its first full year in the US market, Sabril® generated revenue of DKK 179 million in 2010. In the course of the year, we focused especially on enrolling prescribing physicians in the Risk Evaluation and Mitigation Strategy (REMS)7 programme and increase the awareness of the new treatment among patients and caregivers. Sabril® is approved for the treatment of two types of epilepsy; infantile spasms (IS) and refractory complex partial spasms (rCPS), and we experienced extensive interest in the product for the treatment of IS in 2010. Patient accrual for the treatment of rCPS was slower than anticipated, and in 2011 we will increase our focus on reaching this difficult-to-treat patient population, who typically do not respond to treatment.

Lundbeck's other pharmaceuticals in the US generated revenue of DKK 523 million in 2010, which was a decline of 41% relative to 2009. Sales were adversely impacted by the launch of generic chlorothiazide (Diuril®) for the treatment of edema associated with congestive heart failure and kidney disorders in December 2009 and indomethacin (Indocin®) for the treatment of PDA (patent ductus arteriosus) in premature infants in February 2010. We also recorded a decline in sales of Lundbeck's mature pharmaceuticals, primarily due to generic competition.

International Markets

The markets outside Europe and the US represent 18% of the total market for pharmaceuticals for the treatment of brain disorders, and according to recent IMS data these markets grew by 8% to USD 21 billion8 . International Markets cover a number of very different countries in which the proliferation of pharmaceuticals for the treatment of brain disorders is often behind developments in the US and Europe. The region also covers more mature markets such as Canada, Australia and Japan.

Lundbeck's combined revenue in International Markets was DKK 2,970 million in 2010, an increase of 13% on 2009. The increase was driven by the underlying market growth and consistently increasing market shares in a number of markets in the region. On the negative side, International Markets sales were affected by increased competition from generic versions of Lundbeck's products.

6) In March 2009, Lundbeck acquired Lundbeck Inc., which thus only contributed about nine months of revenue to the Lundbeck Group in 2009

7) Together with the FDA, Lundbeck has established a comprehensive Risk Evaluation and Mitigation Strategy (REMS) in order to manage the risk of vision loss associated with the product. The REMS programme for Sabril® comprises components such as mandatory patient evaluations, limited product distribution and requirements of periodic vision testing

Revenue International Markets 2006-2010 (DKKm)

Lundbeck is broadly represented in the region, and in recent years we have consolidated our presence in several countries. We currently have sales subsidiaries in all the important markets in the region with the exception of Japan, where we have representation in the form of a subsidiary focusing on clinical development and regulatory activities, and where we have established partnerships with the three Japanese pharmaceutical companies Mochida Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd., Mitsubishi Tanabe Pharma Corporation9 and Takeda Pharmaceutical Company Limited.

In view of this well-established position in International Markets and expectations of strong growth driven by the continuous proliferation of better treatment options in the region, we see a potential for highly positive growth in International Markets going forward.

Sales of Cipralex® in International Markets climbed 17% to DKK 1,879 million in 2010. The increase was driven by rising market shares, growth in the underlying market and positive exchange rate developments. At the end of the third quarter of 2010, Cipralex® accounted for 11.0% of the total international market for antidepressants, as compared with a market share of 10.3% in the third quarter of 2009. In Canada, Cipralex® sales continue to rise after the product received public reimbursement in the two Canadian provinces of Ontario and British Columbia in 2008 and 2009, respectively. At the end of November 2010, Cipralex® held 14.1% of the Canadian antidepressants market, compared with 11.0% at the end of November 2009. Canada is now the second-largest market for Cipralex® worldwide. In Latin America, Cipralex® continued to record decent growth in spite of the launch of generics in Brazil, driven by solid growth in a number of the other Latin American countries. Sales of Cipralex® in Australia were adversely affected in 2010 by the launch of generic escitalopram at the end of 2009.

Ebixa® generated revenue of DKK 363 million in 2010, which is on a level with 2009. Sales of Ebixa® generally improved during 2010 with growing revenue in Asia, the Middle East and Latin America, driven by strong underlying market growth. However, the positive trend was strongly affected by the launch of generic memantine in Canada, where our revenue was more than halved compared with 2009. In the third quarter of 2010, Ebixa® commanded a market share of 8.4% of the international Alzheimer's market, compared with a market share of 10.3% at the same time last year.

Azilect® has still only been launched in a few markets in the region. Lundbeck acquired the rights to Azilect® in six countries in Asia in 2010, including China and South Korea. The regulatory process is already underway in China. The Asian countries are expected to contribute positively to Azilect® sales growth in International Markets.

Other pharmaceuticals generated revenue of DKK 632 million in 2010 in International Markets, an increase of 7% on 2009. The improvement was driven by factors such as increased sales in the region of Serdolect® for the treatment of schizophrenia and Cipramil® for the treatment of depression.

Depression market

It is estimated that more than 40 million people in the Western world10 currently suffer from depression. Estimates are that only about half of the people suffering from depression are correctly diagnosed, while about 80% of the diagnosed patients receive treatment. It is also estimated that the number of people receiving treatment for depression will grow by 1.4% each year until 2019 in the Western world11.

The market for antidepressants was valued at approximately DKK 19 billion in 2009, a decline of 4% relative to 2008. The decline was due primarily to patent expiry for a number of pharmaceuticals and the launch of cheaper generics. Underlying volume growth remains positive.

The most frequently used pharmaceuticals for the treatment of depression are selective serotonin re-uptake inhibitors (SSRIs such as citalopram, fluoxetine, paroxetine, sertraline etc.), which were launched in the 1980s. This group of antidepressants is characterised by having fewer side effects than previous pharmaceuticals.

Lundbeck launched escitalopram in 2001, which has shown good efficacy and a favourable side effect profile in numerous studies and which is currently the most frequently prescribed antidepressant in value terms.

Although current antidepressants are significantly more efficacious than the first generation launched in the 1960s, substantial unmet needs persist.

In most markets, Lundbeck markets escitalopram under the Cipralex® brand name, although it is sold under the Lexapro® brand in a few markets. Our partner in the US, Forest Laboratories Inc., markets escitalopram in the US under the Lexapro® brand name.

Alzheimer's market

Alzheimer's disease affects 5% of the population over the age of 65. Today, about 60% of all Alzheimer's patients are correctly diagnosed, and of these about 60% are diagnosed with either moderate or severe Alzheimer's disease. It is estimated that more than seven million people in the Western world suffer from Alzheimer's disease. The number of people in the Western world being treated for Alzheimer's disease is expected to grow by 2.7% per annum until 201912.

The market for pharmaceuticals for the treatment of Alzheimer's disease increased by 12% in 2009 to USD 7.4 billion relative to 2008. It is a market that continues to grow strongly. There is still no treatment available to cure the disease or slow its progression, so a huge unmet medical need persists.

The most frequently used pharmaceuticals for the treatment of Alzheimer's disease are acetylcholinesterase inhibitors which can stabilise disease symptoms for a short period (donepezil, rivastigmine and galantamine), and memantine, which is an NMDA receptor antagonist that also offers symptomatic relief.

Lundbeck markets memantine under the Ebixa® brand.

Parkinson's market

Parkinson's disease is one of the most common brain disorders in elderly people. It is estimated that in 2008 more than 3.2 million people in the Western world suffered from Parkinson's disease, of whom an estimated 70% received treatment. The number of people in the Western world being treated for Parkinson's disease is expected to grow by about 3% per annum until 201813.

The global market for pharmaceuticals to treat patients with Parkinson's disease represents a value of approximately USD 4 billion, growing by 1% in 2009 relative to 2008.

There is a large number of pharmaceuticals on the market that only offer symptomatic treatment in the various stages of the disease, either as monotherapy or as combination treatment. The most commonly used compound for the treatment of Parkinson's disease is levodopa, which was developed more than 40 years ago. Since then a number of pharmaceuticals have been launched, aimed at optimising the treatment at the various stages of the disease (some in combination with levodopa). In terms of value, dopamine agonists (pramipexol, ropinirol, rotigotine etc.) command the bulk of the market and have become very popular in recent years, especially for the treatment of early-stage disease. Rasagiline, a MAO-B inhibitor which is used both as monotherapy and in combination treatment with other pharmaceuticals for the treatment of Parkinson's disease, is the only pharmaceutical which in studies has substantiated a disease-modifying effect.

Rasagiline is marketed by Lundbeck under the Azilect® brand.

Huntington's market

In the US alone, approximately 20,000 people suffer from Huntington's disease, for which there is currently no cure, nor any effective treatment.

Tetrabenazine, approved for the treatment of chorea associated with Huntington's disease, is the only pharmaceutical approved for the treatment of symptoms associated with Huntington's disease.

In the US, tetrabenazine is marketed by Lundbeck under the Xenazine® brand.

Epilepsy market

(infantile spasms and refractory complex partial seizures)

Complex partial seizures (CPS) is the most common form of epilepsy. It is estimated that approximately 850,000 people in the US suffer from CPS, and an estimated 200-250,000 of these patients are refractory, i.e. difficult to treat.

Refractory CPS patients are patients who have received a number of different types of epilepsy treatment without achieving the intended effect and whose disease is therefore difficult to treat. Vigabatrine, marketed by Lundbeck in the US under the brand name Sabril®, is approved for this difficult to treat form of epilepsy.

Infantile spasms affect an estimated 2,500 infants every year in the US. The disease usually strikes infants between three to six months of age. There are only two pharmaceuticals for the treatment of infantile spasms, one of which is vigabatrine under the brand Sabril®.

Psychotic disorder market (bipolar disorder)

Bipolar disorder (manic depression) is a form of psychotic disorder that is difficult to diagnose and treat. It is estimated that bipolar disorder affects 30 million people around the world, including four million in Europe. The market for adult patients suffering from bipolar disorder in Europe remains characterised by undertreatment.

The atypical antipsychotic asenapine (Sycrest®/Saphris®) is a new treatment option for the right patients in this population of undertreated patients. Under the Sycrest® brand name, the compound is approved in all 27 EU member states for the treatment of moderate to severe manic episodes in connection with bipolar disorder 1 in adults. Lundbeck expects to launch Sycrest® in the EU in early 2011. Lundbeck also has the rights to the compound in all markets outside the US, China and Japan.

Responsibility and management

  • We are focusing our efforts on corporate responsibility, and in 2010 we began publishing a Communication on Progress (COP) report on our initiatives and results
  • We endeavour to secure a reasonable balance between risk exposure and generation of value
  • We have updated our corporate governance guidelines based on the NASDAQ OMX Copenhagen recommendations.

Over a number of years, Lundbeck has achieved positive results in the environmental field. In spite of an increase in pharmawas also seen in our waste volumes, which declined by 9.4%.

The higher energy consumption and CO2 emissions illustrated production sites. In Lundbeck's CO2 strategy we aim for our CO2 emissions in 2016 to be 25% lower than they were in 2006. So far, our CO2 emissions are down by 12.3% from their 2006 level.

In 2010, there was an increase in the number of lost-time accidents relative to 2009. However, the number of lost workdays per accident and the severity of the accidents decreased.

A responsible company

  • Supplier standards as a minimum in compliance with the UN Global Compact
  • Ethical Code of Conduct for all employees
  • Strong health, safety and environment results.

When we work to develop the best treatments for people suffering from brain disorders, it involves more than the special responsibility we have as a manufacturer of pharmaceuticals. We also have a responsibility in relation to the ethical dilemmas we encounter in our everyday work and lives. Our corporate responsibility strategy takes its starting point in a dialogue with collaborative partners and stakeholders.

Open dialogue and continuing development

We have selected the UN Global Compact as the strategic foundation for our corporate responsibility initiatives. Our corporate strategy is consistent with the obligation to promote the Global Compact's ten principles regarding human rights, labour standards, the environment and anti-corruption and to regularly report on our progress.

Lundbeck's corporate responsibility strategy contains five prioritised areas for 2010-2012:

• Ethics and behaviour

We will draw up and implement binding guidelines with the aim of ensuring that all employees perform their duties in accordance with our business ethics.

• Supplier standards

We will revise the ethical standards that our suppliers must follow, and we will ensure that these standards are, at a minimum, in compliance with the UN Global Compact.

• Access to health

We will define a vision for how to improve access for vulnerable groups to treatment of brain disorders. At the same time, we will regularly evaluate our efforts in this area.

  • Health, safety and environment We will ensure a healthy working environment for our employees and assume responsibility for reducing our environmental footprint.
  • Transparent reporting We will work with relevant stakeholders to increase transparency in Lundbeck by developing and reporting on selected indicators for our corporate responsibility.

The figure below shows the relationship between the five areas of our corporate responsibility strategy and the relevant stakeholders.

Binding guidelines on ethical conduct

In 2010, we focused our efforts on developing and implementing Lundbeck's guidelines on ethics and conduct: our Code of Conduct, a set of binding guidelines describing how we handle ethical dilemmas. The Code of Conduct applies to all employees of the Lundbeck Group and to third parties working on behalf of Lundbeck. It describes our approach to responsible business behaviour and our relationships with stakeholders such as healthcare staff, patients, the authorities, research and business partners and society at large.

Our Code of Conduct contains global requirements to the pharmaceutical industry and requirements defined by ourselves to comply with good business ethics and fulfil our stakeholders' expectations, including compliance with the principles of the UN Global Compact. To ensure relevance and clarity of the requirements, our Code of Conduct was developed in a dialogue with more than 200 in-house specialists, managers, Lundbeck's Executive Management and Supervisory Board and a number of external parties.

This dialogue was also used to create a process intended to ensure effective implementation of the Code of Conduct in the Lundbeck Group in 2010-2011. The process links our existing local procedures for compliance by our subsidiaries with applicable regulations to the procedures laid down in the Code of Conduct.

Lundbeck has long been monitoring compliance with the requirements that we are subject to, for example by performing self-evaluations and actively following up on inspections by authorities and collaborative partners. As part of the implementation of our Code of Conduct, we have reviewed and improved our procedures for in-house evaluations.

At the end of 2010, we began implementing our Code of Conduct at Lundbeck's headquarters and in six subsidiaries, covering a little over half of our employees. We will complete implementation of the Code of Conduct in 2011.

Improved supplier standards

Since 2005, Lundbeck has followed guidelines that ensure that our choice of suppliers includes a thorough, specific and balanced evaluation of business conditions, quality procedures and the protection of people and the environment. We have obtained substantial business opportunities owing to the fact that we need not compromise the protection of people and the environment when we enter into collaboration with suppliers in countries with inadequate legislation.

In 2010, we launched a large-scale project to update, improve and systematise our supplier standards to fulfil the UN Global Compact, and we will roll out the updated supplier standards throughout the Lundbeck Group in 2011. As part of this work, we will make our procedures transparent and accessible to all stakeholders.

Knowledge promotes better access to health

Our efforts to improve access to health are not only aimed at making Lundbeck's products available to more patients in the countries where we operate. We are also working to improve access for people with brain disorders to diagnosis and correct treatment and to eliminate the stigmatisation that often leads to a marginalisation of this group of patients.

We believe that dissemination of knowledge and training in diseases and treatments are key to promoting access to health. The Lundbeck Institute is one of our recognised assets in this context. The objective of the Institute is to improve, through education and information, the treatment of people suffering from brain disorders. A total of 82 international specialists collaborate with the Institute, which held eight seminars in 2010 attended by a total of 184 doctors from 23 countries. The Institute is responsible for the DepNet website, where patients, relatives and healthcare professionals can share experiences about depression and receive product-independent advice from the doctors affiliated with the service. DepNet has been launched in 18 countries.

Strong health, safety and environment results

For a number of years, our health, safety and environment strategy has yielded a number of tangible results; which means that Lundbeck now manufactures more pharmaceuticals while consuming fewer raw materials and less energy, generating lower waste volumes and emitting less CO2 than previously. In the field of occupational health and safety, the number of accidents with time loss has gone up at Lundbeck. However, the number of lost workdays per accident and the severity of the accidents have decreased. A major factor in the positive development we have seen in recent years is the integration of health, safety and environmental considerations in decision-making processes, along with more cooperation and improved coordination across the organisation.

At our chemical production site in Lumsås, increased focus on industrial accidents and safety culture resulted in a period of more than 12 months without workrelated accidents with time loss. Based on these results, Lundbeck was nominated for the Occupational Health and Safety Award in Denmark. The experience from Lumsås will be applied throughout the organisation going forward.

In our chemical production, we rolled out a new production technology in 2010 that will boost productivity, improve working environment for our employees and reduce our consumption of raw materials and energy. The technology was developed in collaboration with researchers from the Technical University of Denmark over the past few years. In simplified terms, you might say that the new technology pools more processes in one reactor instead of using one reactor for each process stage. The need for cleaning has been minimised, and handling the equipment has been automated so that operators avoid heavy lifting and uncomfortable work positions; they are also much less exposed to chemical compounds and materials than previously.

Another marked result is that we resolved in 2010 to lower the target for our CO2 strategy further, to the effect that our 2016 goal for CO2 emissions is 25%, or 10,832 tonnes, below the level recorded in 2006. This decision reflects our success in reducing energy consumption and CO2 emissions where we consume most energy, which is in the research, development and manufacture of pharmaceuticals.

One of the many initiatives we implemented in production in 2010 deserves specific mention. The initiative concerns the operation of Lundbeck's boiler plant in Valby, which in 2010 was converted to run on natural gas instead of oil. This conversion has resulted in energy savings and an expected annual reduction in CO2 emissions of 1,800 tonnes, equal to 5% of Lundbeck's total CO2 emissions.

The ventilation systems that provide fresh air to our research laboratories also consume huge amounts of energy at our Valby location. Without compromising the safety and health of our employees, we have successfully reduced our energy consumption for ventilation purposes quite considerably, lowering CO2 emissions simply by optimising system operations.

The positive experiences from our operations in Denmark will in 2011 be put to use at our facilities in the US, Italy and France, to which Lundbeck has allocated resources to invest in energy optimisation over the next few years.

Available reports

In 2009, Lundbeck signed the UN Global Compact, and in 2010 we published our first Communication on Progress (COP) report and were recognised by the Global Compact as a communicating participant. We will continue our reporting efforts in 2011-2012, communicating with our stakeholders to benchmark our performance against measurable indicators to make our corporate responsibility performance more visible.

Read more about Lundbeck's corporate responsibility initiatives at www.lundbeck. com/corporate_responsibility/default.asp. On our website we publish further voluntary information, including Lundbeck's COP report to the UN Global Compact, detailed case descriptions, targets for our corporate responsibility initiatives and quantitative data for Lundbeck's work in the field of health, safety and the environment.

Lundbeck commended for climate initiatives

In 2010, for the second year running, Lundbeck again ranked high in the Carbon Disclosure Project (CDP)• in the Nordic region, and we were once more listed in the index of companies with the lowest greenhouse gas emissions.

The CDP works to promote openness in corporate climate initiatives focusing on greenhouse gas emissions, reduction targets for emissions and risks and opportunities in connection with climate change. The index highlights the companies that have taken the most professional stance in climate change mitigation. The companies are assessed according to their openness, with a high ranking indicating excellent data handling and an understanding of the climate-related areas that affect the company.

• The CDP is an independent not-for-profit organisation with the world's largest database of primary corporate climate change information. Thousands of companies disclose their greenhouse gas emissions and climate change strategies in this database, and they also publicly announce their reduction targets and performance improvements.

Risk management

  • Lundbeck's risk management organisation provides management with an overview and the opportunity to react
  • Business entities monitor and respond to risks
  • Lundbeck regularly realigns processes to support optimum risk management.

Lundbeck attempts to secure a reasonable balance between risk exposure and generation of value. Our risk management processes are consistently updated and adapted to match intra-Group and external requirements and needs. We have a risk management organisation with a centralised Risk Office, the purpose of which is to provide the Corporate Management Group with a solid basis for decisions regarding the company's overall risk exposure and give them a solid overview of the activities and resources available.

The fundamental principle is that risks, in addition to central monitoring and coordination, should be managed by decentralised units as they have the most extensive knowledge of such risks and the best possibility of mitigating the exposure. The individual business units take a systematic approach to monitoring, identifying, quantifying and responding to risks. Furthermore, we have defined reporting, decision-making and follow-up procedures and routines.

We assess the likelihood of an event occurring and the potential consequences for Lundbeck in the form of financial loss or damaged reputation. The decentralised risk evaluation in the business units is regularly reported and processed by the organisation.

Half-yearly risk reporting

Every six months, Risk Office updates Lundbeck's overall risk exposure when the business units report on the principal risks in their area. The reports contain the following:

  • Description of risk
  • When is the event likely to happen
  • What sort of risk-hedging and mitigating initiatives and possibilities do we have
  • Potential consequences if the event occurs
  • Who is responsible

The Risk Office assesses Lundbeck's overall risk exposure and discusses it with the Risk Board. Subsequently, risks and risk exposure are presented to the Audit Committee. Risk reporting forms an integral part of Lundbeck's overall reporting process.

Risk exposure

The reporting and management of risk exposure follows the pharmaceutical value chain. Below we describe the risks that we have defined as particularly critical.

Research and development risks

Lundbeck relies on its ability to protect its intellectual rights in connection with new pharmaceuticals and to operate its business without infringing the rights of others. Patenting and the patent application process in pharmaceutical companies are legally and scientifically complicated processes and are thus subject to a certain degree of uncertainty. We are taking major steps to develop and retain competencies in this area, and we consistently defend our intellectual property rights.

Throughout the research and development process, there is a risk that new pharmaceuticals will be delayed or have to be abandoned altogether. In each of our late-stage projects, we thoroughly assess if factors such as the initiation of new clinical trials or support in ongoing clinical trials could lead to a more successful completion of the projects.

In 2010, Lundbeck signed research partnership agreements with Genmab A/S, Kyowa Hakko Kirin Co., Ltd. samt Zenobia Therapeutics, Inc. og Vernalis plc. These new agreements are part of the new research strategy. Before we enter into agreements, we conduct a comprehensive and detailed review of the contract and its conditions, drawing on specialists from relevant business areas in order to mitigate any risks. Lundbeck participates in a number of research and development collaborations. See p. 15.

Production risks

Managing reliability of supply is crucial in ensuring that patients constantly have access to the pharmaceuticals they need. For this reason, we carefully monitor the supply situation and as a rule maintain an inventory level that will help us overcome a production breakdown.

To mitigate production risks, Lundbeck currently has production and packing facilities at four independent sites: Lumsås and Valby (Denmark), Padua (Italy) and Sophia-Antipolis (France). In this way we enhance flexibility in our pharmaceutical production, while we also reduce our costs as we rely less on external suppliers.

In rare cases, pharmaceutical companies are forced to recall a product from the market due to a problem with the safety or quality of the pharmaceutical. Lundbeck has systems and procedures in place to ensure a swift and effective response if the need should arise.

Sales and marketing risks

The pharmaceutical market is characterised by the aim of the authorities to cap or reduce the otherwise rising healthcare costs. The authorities may opt for example to reduce prices or regulate market access as we have experienced in a number of countries in recent years.

Market changes such as price reductions may have a considerable impact on the earnings potential of pharmaceuticals. For example, Lundbeck experienced significant mandatory price reductions in 2010 in several countries in southern Europe, where higher debts have compelled the governments to cut the public budgets. These savings have resulted in a number of healthcare reforms resulting in comprehensive price reductions, especially in Greece and Spain. We consider the uncertainty surrounding public debts and the resulting savings as a risk factor in 2011.

We are working with the health authorities around the world to document the value of our pharmaceuticals, for example by preparing health-economic reports and considerations. We also seek to adjust our organisation and activities to accommodate changes in market conditions, for example by using external sales consultants.

• The highlighted risks are those defined by Lundbeck as particularly critical

Risks in the pharmaceutical value chain•

We monitor and analyse the Group's intellectual property rights and the risk of generic competition. We believe that Lundbeck's intellectual property rights are valid and enforceable, and we defend these rights, wherever they may be violated.

Lundbeck is involved in pending trials concerning intellectual property rights concerning escitalopram in Austria, Belgium, Brazil, Canada, Denmark, Finland, France, Germany, Hungary, Latvia, Lebanon, Lithuania, The Netherlands, Norway, Portugal, Saudi Arabia, Spain, Taiwan, Turkey and the UK.

New clinical trials, publications and letters to the editor may change the perception of the position of our pharmaceuticals relative to competing products. We invest considerable resources in establishing a factual and scientific foundation that allows doctors and patients to maintain confidence in our pharmaceuticals.

A growing problem in the pharmaceutical market in recent years has been the sale of counterfeit medicine, e.g. on the Internet. However, only a few cases of counterfeit Lundbeck medications have been registered, with one case in 2010 versus four cases in 2009. In 2010, we completed an in-depth analysis of security in the supply chain from the procurement of raw materials to distribution of finished goods, focusing on providing maximum security against counterfeit medicine. Lundbeck pursues all cases through its Anti-Counterfeit Task Force and is a member of the World Health Organization's (WHO) anti-counterfeit organisation IMPACT.

Risks across the value chain

Partnerships, in-licensing and acquisitions

Lundbeck's business model is based on partnerships, among other things. Partnerships offer a number of benefits, but also mean that we do not retain full control of the individual projects and products. However, through close and open dialogue with our partners we seek to ensure that our targets are met by sharing ideas and best practices in research, development, production, marketing and sales.

The in-licensing of pharmaceuticals is characterised by sharp competition. This involves the risk that prices of attractive projects are pushed up to a level that would render them unprofitable, considering the risk involved.

In 2010, Lundbeck signed an agreement with Merck & Co., Ltd., under which we in-licensed Sycrest®/Saphris® for the treatment of bipolar disorder and schizophrenia. Before we enter into such an agreement, we make comprehensive investigations in which relevant in-house and external specialists are involved, contributing analyses and assessments. Subsequently, the final recommendation is presented to the Supervisory Board for approval, and the management can close the deal within the given framework. Lundbeck has other in-licensed products in its portfolio, including Ebixa® for the treatment of Alzheimer's disease, Azilect® for the treatment of Parkinson's disease and Xenazine® for the treatment of Huntington's disease.

Human capital and knowledge

Lundbeck is a knowledge business, and that means that our success depends on our having the right employees with the right competencies. Consequently, we are taking great strides to secure our human capital.

We spend substantial resources on developing employee know-how and competencies. Employee know-how and competencies are the key to our success, but it also means that the employees are attractive to other businesses. Therefore, remuneration, employee benefits, recognition and development opportunities are key factors for us in retaining our employees.

To a company such as Lundbeck, it is crucial that we can protect the knowledge that is the basis of our success. We have sharpened our focus on information security with the aim of protecting own intellectual property rights and, not least, avoiding the infringement of third party rights. We need to keep our information secure but also need to share knowledge between employees around the world.

Financial risks

Most of Lundbeck's commercial transactions are settled in foreign currency. At the present time, the currency risk is primarily associated with movements in the US dollar (USD), but also a number of other currencies such as Canadian dollar (CAD) and Turkish lira (TRY).

At the end of 2010, Lundbeck has hedged income in these currencies for most of 2011. Accordingly, if the exchange rates change during 2011, this will only have a small impact on Lundbeck's financial results for 2011, but it may affect the financial performance from 2012 onwards.

Interest rate risks arise in connection with the company's bond portfolio, debt portfolio and cash holding. Interest rate risks are reduced by seeking short duration on both the asset side and the liabilities side.

The credit risk that arises in connection with the sale of goods, the Group's bond portfolio and cash holdings is reduced by avoiding credit risk concentration and by diversifying receivables on a large number of creditworthy trading partners. In addition, the Group exclusively deals with banks that have a high credit rating.

For more details on financial risks, see note 15 on p. 91, note 17 on p. 92 and note 25 on p. 98-103.

Other risks

Corporate governance, including risk management, is the cornerstone of Lundbeck's way of running its business. The preconditions for preventive and forward-looking risk management are in place. The organisation delivers ongoing, value-creating, valid and fast reports on issues such as Lundbeck's reputation, risk profile on marketed products and operational, tactical and strategic financial planning.

Decisions in key patent cases in 2010

Canada

At the beginning of 2009, Lundbeck won three cases concerning escitalopram in Canada. The opponents appealed these cases. The appeals for all three cases were decided in November 2010 in favour of Lundbeck. As a result, the three companies cannot market generic escitalopram in Canada. Cases are also pursued against other generic manufacturers in Canada.

France

In France, the court of first instance upheld Lundbeck's product patent for escitalopram in September 2010. The case may be appealed by the opponent.

Spain

In April 2010 Lundbeck received the outcome of a preliminary injunction case regarding infringement of the escitalopram patent in Spain. The court decided to lift the ex parte injunction made against companies preparing to market generic escitalopram. Lundbeck has appealed the decision.

Corporate governance

  • Lundbeck generally complies with the new corporate governance recommendations
  • The company's strategic challenges are analysed in an ongoing process, and the long-term strategy has been defined
  • Lundbeck has fixed and announced its financial floor guidance for 2011-2014.

Corporate governance at Lundbeck involves the way in which the company is managed and controlled, the guidelines that regulate the interaction between our Executive Management, Supervisory Board and stakeholders as well as the internal controls in our business.

For a number of years, Lundbeck's Supervisory Board and Executive Management have focused on corporate governance. A number of components are critical to ensure corporate governance at Lundbeck. These include:

  • Interaction with the company's shareholders and encouragement to active ownership with an opportunity to provide input to the articles of association and contribute items to be considered at the Annual General Meeting, etc.
  • Openness and transparency in shareholder communications
  • Recognition of the company's stakeholders and their importance to the company.

Lundbeck's Supervisory Board and Executive Management consistently focus on corporate governance. In 2010, our focus was dedicated to NASDAQ OMX Copenhagen's updated corporate governance recommendations. Lundbeck's Supervisory Board and Executive Management have considered the new recommendations, and against that background updated the company's corporate governance guidelines1 .

The Supervisory Board believes that Lundbeck generally meets all of these corporate governance recommendations, with the exception of two items. We have opted not to comply with the recommendation to establish a nomination committee, which considers the qualifications and composition of the Supervisory Board and Executive Management. The reason is that our chairman and deputy chairman handle this task. Also, we do not comply with the recommendation to disclose the remuneration paid to individual members of Executive Management, as we do not believe that this provides added value to the company's stakeholders. We still only intend to disclose the individual remuneration paid to our President and CEO and the total remuneration paid to the Executive Management.

Lundbeck's Supervisory Board consists of six external directors elected by the shareholders at the Annual General Meeting and three members elected by Lundbeck's Danish employees. Members elected at the Annual General Meeting are up for re-election every year, whilst the members elected by the employees are up for re-election every four years. Board members may retain their seat on Lundbeck's Supervisory Board until the Annual General Meeting held in the calendar year in which they attain the age of 70. For more information about rules and principles for election of board members, see www.lundbeck.com/aboutus/ corporate_governance/constitutive_documents/articles_en.pdf.

The Supervisory Board is responsible for defining Lundbeck's general strategy, setting goals for Executive Management and ensuring that members of Executive Management and other managers consistently have the right qualifications. The Board also evaluates management and management remuneration. Furthermore, the Supervisory Board has the overall responsibility for ensuring that adequate internal controls are in place and for identifying and addressing the Group's risks. This responsibility is defined in the Danish Companies Act and stipulated in the rules of procedures for the Supervisory Board.

The Supervisory Board regularly evaluates the Group's business and financial strategies and policies and ensures that the day-to-day management of the company is made in accordance with such policies.

1) A detailed description of the Supervisory Board's considerations in respect of the NASDAQ OMX Copenhagen recommendations is available on www.lundbeck.com/aboutus/corporate_governance/guidelines/default.pdf.

Pursuant to the rules of procedure for the Supervisory Board, the chairman and deputy chairman have duties aimed at ensuring that the Board functions satisfactorily and that the Board's duties are handled in the best possible manner. This involves duties such as the recruitment of new board members, coordinating the work of the Board, coordination relative to Executive Management and the company's independent auditors, defining goals and policies and following up thereon, risk and liquidity management

The Supervisory Board receives periodic reports from Executive Management, including:

  • Follow-up on strategic activities approved by the Supervisory Board
  • Information about principal risks, including risks associated with patenting, the research and development portfolio, regulatory, commercial and financial issues
  • Recommendation for approval of large-scale investments and transactions which, according to the company's circumstances, are of an unusual nature or size
  • Financial reporting, including follow-up on budgets, estimates, interim financial statements and annual reports
  • Reports from the Audit Committee on matters such as internal controls in the financial reporting procedures, special financial and accounting issues, evaluation of financial reporting and other financial information
  • Processing of final long-form audit report from the independent auditors.

In 2010, the Supervisory Board had important assignments of regularly analysing the company's strategic challenges, determining the long-term strategy, defining and communicating financial floor guidance for 2011-2014 and approving major collaborative agreements including Genmab A/S, Kyowa Hakko Kirin Co., Ltd., Merck & Co., Ltd. and Xian-Janssen Pharmaceutical Ltd.

The Supervisory Board held 10 ordinary meetings and one extraordinary meeting in 2010, plus a two-day strategy seminar together with Executive Management.

Board independence

NASDAQ OMX Copenhagen recommends that half of a company's board members be independent persons. The issue of board member independence is particularly relevant for Lundbeck, which has a single principal shareholder, the Lundbeck Foundation, holding 70% of the Group's shares. Based on the definition from NASDAQ OMX Copenhagen, four of the six board members elected at the general meeting are considered independent, whilst two members, due to their close affiliation with the Foundation, are not considered independent. In this context, it should be noted that the Foundation does not nominate the chairman of Lundbeck's Supervisory Board but only recommends members for the position as deputy chairman and one ordinary board member.

In addition, more than half the members of each of the Supervisory Board's three committees are independent, the chairman of the Board does not act as chairman of the Audit Committee, and no board member is a member of Lundbeck's Executive Management.

Board competencies

It is important that the combined members of the Supervisory Board possess the required competencies. The individual board members each have special competencies, and the current Board members are believed to possess the financial, strategic and business competencies required to serve on the board of an international pharmaceutical company.

To ensure that the Supervisory Board retains the necessary competencies, and in order to review strengths and weaknesses of the work performed by the Board, Lundbeck's Supervisory Board conducts an evaluation of the work and competencies of the Supervisory Board and Executive Management every year.

In 2010, the evaluation was facilitated by an external party. The conclusion of the evaluation showed a rewarding cooperation in the Executive Management team and the Supervisory Board and between the two bodies, as well as satisfactory individual efforts and performance. Another conclusion was that the strategic focus of Executive Management and the Supervisory Board is important.

Board committees

The Supervisory Board has set up three committees: the Audit Committee, the Remuneration Committee and, most recently, a Scientific Committee, which was set up in 2009. These committees advise the Supervisory Board in connection with financial information and reporting, remuneration of Executive Management and the company's compensation strategy, and research and development, respectively.

Audit Committee

The Audit Committee has an advisory role relative to the Supervisory Board, including on matters such as internal controls in the financial reporting procedures, special financial and accounting issues, evaluation of financial reporting and other financial information and risk management.

The Audit Committee fulfils its duties by way of the following activities:

  • Meetings with the Corporate Management Group, internal and independent auditors
  • Consideration of management's recommendation concerning accounting policies, accounting estimates with significant impact on the financial reporting process, new accounting standards and significant single transactions
  • Approval of new and revision of critical guidelines and policies for internal controls and financial reporting procedures
  • Approval of Internal Audit's annual strategy and audit plans and review of status on audit procedures performed
  • Review of communication from independent auditors to the Supervisory Board, including monitoring and control of independent auditors' independence, review of audit planning and drafting long-form audit reports
  • Systematic review of the company's risk exposure
  • Review of cases received through the whistleblower system.

The Audit Committee held three meetings in 2010.

Internal audit and whistleblower system

Lundbeck has set up an Internal Audit function, which reports directly to the Audit Committee and which is thus independent of the Corporate Management Group. Based on the audit plan approved by the Audit Committee, Internal Audit performs audit assignments in all business entities after a plan of rotation to ensure compliance with the company's policies and procedures and to assist management by recommending ongoing improvements to existing internal controls. Furthermore, we have established a whistleblower system that all employees can use anonymously to contact Internal Audit if they experience non-compliance with Lundbeck's business ethics policies.

Remuneration Committee

The purpose of the Remuneration Committee is to provide the Supervisory Board with the best possible basis for making decisions on the remuneration provided to the members of the Executive Management and on the company's overall remuneration policy. The Committee also handles assignments related to recruitment and appointments to Lundbeck's senior management.

In 2010, the Remuneration Committee held seven meetings. In 2010, the Committee's principal activities involved following up on Executive Management's targets for 2009 and defining targets for 2011.

Scientific Committee

Since 2009, Lundbeck's Supervisory Board has had a scientific committee, the purpose of which is to provide the Supervisory Board with the best possible basis for supporting strategic R&D decisions.

The Scientific Committee held two two-day meetings in 2010. The Scientific Committee's principal activities in 2010 involved Lundbeck's new research strategy, the establishment of a scientific advisory board and recommendations relating to the company's late-stage projects.

Remuneration – Supervisory Board

Members of the Supervisory Board receive a fixed remuneration and are not included in the company's bonus and incentive programmes, neither in the form of cash bonus, options or shares. In addition, the members of the Audit, Remuneration and Scientific Committees receive a separate fee.

The Board of Directors recommends to the shareholders at the Annual General Meeting that the basic fees to the Supervisory Board remain unchanged in 2011. An ordinary board member receives DKK 300,000, while the chairman and deputy chairman each receive three times and twice the basic fee, respectively. It is also recommended that the members of the Audit, Remuneration and Scientific Committees receive DKK 200,000 in 2011. The chairmen of the committees will receive 1.5 times the basic amount.

Executive Management

Lundbeck's Executive Management consists of six members and represents all links of the pharmaceutical value chain; research, development, production, marketing, sales and administration. Corporate Management Group also includes the function areas Business Development, HR and Legal.

Executive Management is responsible for establishing the necessary procedures and internal controls based on the Supervisory Board's guidelines, and has implemented the following:

  • Segregation of functions and limits on powers to sign for the company and approve authorisations to prevent fraud and financial losses
  • Policies in areas such as IT security, insurance, investment, procurement, cash management and financial reporting
  • Regular follow-up on and reports on status for targets and results achieved relative to approved budgets
  • Regular meetings at which the Corporate Management Group reviews and evaluates progress and risks in the research and development portfolio
  • Weekly reports to the Corporate Management Group on cash and financial positions

• A statement to the extent to which the company's policies have been implemented and complied with, signed by the management in the reporting entities in connection with financial reporting.

Remuneration – Executive Management

The composition of the remuneration to Executive Management reflects Lundbeck's ambition to be a research-based company dedicated to brain disorders and aiming for long-term financial growth.

To a company such as Lundbeck, it is important that the overall remuneration package for the members of Executive Management is composed in such a manner that it rewards the achievement of ambitious short-term goals and clearly provides an incentive to focus on the long term based on the company's performance relative to peer companies in Scandinavia and in the European pharmaceutical industry. The overall remuneration package consists of a base salary, short-term and long-term incentive programmes and pension.

The base salary of the members of Executive Management is slightly below the average of the group of peer companies. On the other hand, the package includes short-term and long-term incentive programmes with a potential for a substantial reward for exceptional results.

The pension scheme for Executive Management is a defined contribution scheme which corresponds to the market level. The scheme includes both a savings part and the insurance coverage associated with general practice for pension schemes.

The short-term incentive programme for the members of Executive Management is an annual bonus awarded for the achievement of pre-determined targets for the preceding financial year. The CEO may receive up to nine months' base salary as a bonus on condition of achievement of exceptional results. The other members of Executive Management may receive up to six months' base salary as a bonus on condition of achievement of exceptional results. The bonus scheme is based on group targets and individual targets.

On termination of employment, members of the Executive Management will receive less than two years' salary. However, the CEO will receive three years' salary on termination of employment before 1 June 2011. On termination of employment after this date, he will receive less than two years' salary.

Lundbeck's corporate governance model

In addition, the members of Executive Management participate in a three-year revolving long-term incentive programme that includes shares and share-based instruments such as warrants and share options. The programme is based on value generation to shareholders. Executive Management can access these shares and share-based instruments after a three-year period, depending on results achieved in respect of overall shareholder return relative to a defined peer group.

Executive Management remuneration is based on the guidelines approved at the Annual General Meeting in 2008. These guidelines, which specify the components of the remuneration package for Executive Management members, are available at www.lundbeck.com/aboutus/corporate_governance/remuneration/ remuneration_en.pdf.

Controls and risk management in relation to the financial reporting process

The purpose of Lundbeck's internal control and risk management system, as used in the financial reporting process, is to mitigate the risk of material errors and omissions in the financial reporting. The system can be divided into the following areas:

Control environment

The Supervisory Board and Executive Management are responsible for establishing and approving general policies, procedures and controls in relation to financial reporting. At the same time, they regularly assess the company's organisational structure and staffing in key areas, including areas of relevance to financial reporting.

Risk assessment

The Supervisory Board and Executive Management regularly assess the company's risk exposure, including risks relating to financial reporting.

Control activities

The control activities are based on a risk assessment. The objective is to ensure compliance with policies, manuals and procedures laid down by management and timely prevention/identification of errors and omissions.

Information and communication

Lundbeck has established information and communication systems which set out the requirements for financial reporting and the external financial reporting in accordance with current legislation.

Monitoring

The risk assessment and control activities are monitored in an ongoing process. The monitoring comprises formal and informal procedures, including a review of results, budgets and estimates and ongoing assessments of key financial highlights and ratios.

The Lundbeck share

  • The Lundbeck share closed the year at DKK 106,00
  • Proposed dividend is DKK 3.77 per share
  • Increasing interest in Lundbeck as an investment opportunity.

In 2010, the Lundbeck share yielded a positive return of 11.9%. In the same period, the MSCI Europe Pharmaceuticals Index was down by 3.8%. In comparison, the combined OMXC20 index rose 33.9% in 2010.

The share price closed the year at DKK 106.00 and peaked at a year-high closing price of DKK 108.50 on 1 November 2010. The lowest closing price was DKK 82.80 on 1 July 2010.

Turnover

Total trading in Lundbeck shares amounted to DKK 11.9 billion in 2010, whilst the average daily turnover was 487,753 shares. A total of 122.4 million shares were traded in 2010.

Lundbeck exited the Danish OMXC20 share index in connection with the latest rebalancing in December 2010. As a result of the IPO of two large Danish companies on the Copenhagen stock exchange (NASDAQ OMX Copenhagen), these two companies became a component of the index even though trading in Lundbeck shares was higher compared with previous periods.

Dividend of 30%

It is our policy to pay a dividend of 25-35% of the profit for the year after tax, with due consideration to the company's growth plans, possible acquisitions and other liquidity requirements. For the financial year 2010, the Supervisory Board proposes a dividend of 30% of profit for the year after tax, corresponding to DKK 3.77 per share. This translates into dividend yield of 3.6%, against 3.2% in 2009.

Financial review

Income statement

The Group generated revenue of DKK 14,765 million in 2010, an increase of 7% relative to 2009. Measured at constant exchange rates, revenue was up 4%.

Sales of the Group's pharmaceuticals Cipralex®/Lexapro®, Ebixa® and Azilect® amounted to DKK 11,682 million, an increase of DKK 980 million, or 9%, on 2009.

Total revenue in the US market amounted to DKK 3,722 million, against DKK 3,632 million in 2009. Income from Forest Laboratories, Inc (Forest) amounted to DKK 2,443 million, which was on a level with the 2009 income of DKK 2,451 million.

Revenue in Europe was up by DKK 599 million to DKK 7,815 million, equal to an increase of 8% in DKK-terms, or 7% at constant exchange rates. The increase primarily reflects a revenue increase in the major markets, especially France and Italy.

Revenue from International Markets rose to DKK 2,970 million from DKK 2,621 million in 2009. The increase in revenue was 13% in DKK-terms, or 5% at constant exchange rates.A substantial part of the increase was achieved in Mexico, Canada and China.

Hedging had a negative DKK 10 million net impact on consolidated revenue. Hedging gains concerning hedging of USD income from Lexapro® amounted to DKK 77 million. This amount related to hedging of the inventories consumed by Forest in 2010, which Lundbeck hedged against exchange rate fluctuations and delivered in 2008-2010. Hedging losses on other currencies amounted to DKK 87 million.

Lundbeck's total costs, exclusive of net financials and tax, were DKK 11,408 million, an increase of DKK 519 million. Of this amount, DKK 341 million can be attributed to Lundbeck Inc. (previously Ovation Pharmaceuticals Inc.).As the company was acquired in March of last year, the 2009 financial statements only included costs from the acqui sition date, corresponding to approximately 9 months.

Overall cost of sales increased by DKK 303 million to DKK 2,958 million. Cost of sales represented 20% of revenue, against 19% in 2009, primarily due to higher sales of in-licensed products, including Xenazine®,Azilect® and Ebixa®.

The Group's distribution costs rose by DKK 322 million, which equals a 10% increase relative to the year before, primarily caused by pre-launch costs and costs incurred by Lundbeck Inc.Administrative expenses amounted to DKK 1,909 million, up DKK 45 million, or 2%, on the previous year. This increase was driven primarily by costs incurred in Lundbeck Inc. Distribution costs and administrative expenses amounted to 36% of revenue in 2010, which was consistent with the level in 2009.

Total research and development costs were DKK 3,045 million. Compared with 2009, costs were down by DKK 151 million, or 5%. The reason for the decline is that costs were incurred in 2009 among other things for registration of the anti-schizophrenic agent Serdolect® and for two projects, which completed clinical phase II in 2010, but for which the costs for clinical phase III have so far been limited.

Profit from operations was DKK 3,357 million, corresponding to an EBIT margin of 22.7%, against 20.8% in 2009.

Net financials amounted to an expense of DKK 68 million, against DKK 192 million in 2009.

Net interest expenses in respect of financial assets and financial liabilities and other financial expenses amounted to DKK 112 million, against DKK 127 million in 2009. The remaining financials, which primarily cover exchange rate gains and losses, amounted to a net income of DKK 44 million, against a net expense of DKK 65 million in 2009.

Tax on profit for the year amounted to DKK 823 million, corresponding to an effective tax rate of 25.0%, against 24.7% in 2009.

Revenue per product 2010 Revenue per region 2010

Profit for the year amounted to DKK 2,466 million, up 23% on 2009. Earnings per share amounted to DKK 12.58, against DKK 10.24 in 2009. Proposed dividends for 2010 amount to 30% of the profit for the year, and the total amount of the proposed divi dends is thus DKK 739 million, or DKK 3.77 per share.

Incentive programmes in 2010

In 2010, the Group established incentive programmes for the Executive Management and key employees in Denmark and abroad. The programmes consist of warrants and shares and share price-based schemes for persons employed with the Group's subsidi aries in the USA. The vesting period is three years, and for the Executive Management vesting depends on Lundbeck's ranking in a peer group of companies. The total cost recognised in the consolidated income statement for 2010 amounted to DKK 13 million, against DKK 15 million in 2009.

Currency hedging

At 31 December 2010, exchange contracts had been entered into to hedge foreign currency cash flows, primarily in USD, equivalent to a value of approximately DKK 4.8 billion, of which DKK 3.5 billion was classified as hedging contracts. Deferred recognition of net currency losses and gains amounted to a loss of DKK 5 million at 31 December 2010, against a gain of DKK 44 million at 31 December 2009.

The average forward rate for USD at 31 December 2010 was approximately USD/DKK 567 for the hedging contracts concluded (USD/DKK 541 at 31 December 2009). The hedging of USD cash flows will have a profit impact primarily at the time in 2011 when Forest uses the bulk deliveries to which the hedging relates. For 2011, this corresponds to an average exchange rate of approxi-mately USD/DKK 562, against USD/DKK 556 in 2010.

Balance sheet

At 31 December 2010, the Group's total assets amounted to DKK 18,005 million, which was DKK 878 million higher than at the end of 2009.

Intangible assets amounted to DKK 8,012 million, against DKK 7,724 million in 2009, primarily relating to goodwill and product rights. The increase was partly due to capitalisation of acquired rights in connection with the agreements signed with Merck & Co., Ltd. and Kyowa Hakko Kirin Co., Ltd., partly to Lundbeck Inc. because of a higher DKK/ USD exchange rate.

Property, plant and equipment amounted to DKK 3,046 million, against DKK 3,049 million in 2009. The investments primarily concerned the expansion of production facilities in Denmark and France. Depreciation for the year amounted to DKK 367 million, which was consistent with the level in 2009.

The Group's combined inventories amounted to DKK 1,491 million, against DKK 1,481 million in 2009.

The Group's receivables were up 10% to DKK 2,917 million, against DKK 2,655 million in 2009. The increase was attributable to generally higher sales.

Lundbeck's portfolio of securities and cash rose by DKK 329 million to DKK 2,348 million, against DKK 2,019 million in 2009. The increase was primarily due to accumu lated cash flows from the year's operations.

Equity amounted to DKK 11,122 million, against DKK 8,803 million in 2009, equalling an increase of 26%, or DKK 2,319 million. Equity thus amounted to 62% of total assets, against 51% in 2009. Dividends paid in respect of 2009 reduced equity by DKK 602 million in 2010.

Non-current liabilities amounted to DKK 2,848 million, compared with DKK 3,787 million in 2009, and current liabilities at the end of the year were DKK 4,035 million, down from DKK 4,537 million in 2009. The decline in total liabilities was due primarily to the repayment of bank loans raised in connection with the acquisition of Ovation Pharmaceuticals Inc. (Ovation) in 2009.

Costs and profit from operations as a percentage of revenue 2010

Cash flow statement

The Group's total cash flows were an inflow of DKK 300 million, against an outflow of DKK 975 million in 2009.

Operating activities generated a cash inflow of DKK 3,265 million in 2010, against DKK 3,034 million in 2009. The increase was primarily caused by a DKK 499 million increase in profit from operations in 2010, which was partly offset by increased tax payments.

Investing activities generated a cash outflow of DKK 803 million, against an outflow of DKK 5,074 million in 2009, which was impacted by the acquisition of Ovation.

Cash flows from financing activities were an outflow of DKK 2,162 million, against an inflow of DKK 1,065 million in 2009. 2010 was materially affected by the repayment of loans raised in connection with the acquisition of Ovation.

The consolidated financial statements are presented in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards as adopted by the EU and additional Danish disclosure requirements for annual reports of listed companies, including the disclosure require ments imposed by NASDAQ OMX Copenhagen on annual reports of listed companies and the Danish Statutory Order on Adoption of IFRS.

The consolidated financial statements are presented in Danish kroner (DKK), which also is the functional currency of the parent company.

The consolidated financial statements are presented in accordance with the new and revised standards (IFRS/IAS) and interpretations (IFRIC) which apply for the financial year. This has not resulted in any changes in accounting policies that have affected recognition and measurement in the current or previous years.

Implementation of new and revised standards and interpretations

IFRS 3 Business combinations has been implemented in the current financial year and will be applied to business combinations with an acquisition date on or after 1 January 2010. The principal changes in IFRS 3 have the following consequences:

  • The possibility of recognising 100% of the goodwill from the acquired enterprise, regardless of the acquired stake being lower than 100%.
  • Changes to contingent consideration on acquisitions will henceforth be recognised in the income statement.
  • Acquisition costs are recognised in the income statement when incurred.

In the current financial year, Lundbeck has not been a party to business combinations encompassed by IFRS 3.

Changes to IAS 27 Consolidated and Separate Financial Statements and IAS 28 Investments in Associates primarily relate to accounting for transactions that lead to changes in the Group's investments in subsidiaries and associates.As Lundbeck has not made transactions covered by the changes to IAS 27 and 28, the implementation of these standards did not affect the annual report.

Lundbeck has also implemented a change to IFRS 8 Operating Segments, under which non-current assets are no longer shown distributed on geographical areas because this information is not included in the internal management reports.

Finally, Lundbeck has opted for early implementation of a change to IAS 1 Presentation of financial statements, which enters into force at 1 January 2011. The presentation of comprehensive income and statement of changes in equity has been adjusted to reflect the new requirements.

Future IFRS changes

At the date of the publication of these consolidated financial statements, a number of new and amended standards and interpretations have not yet entered into force or have not yet been adopted by the EU. Therefore, they are not included in the consoli dated financial statements. None of these changes are expected to have a material impact on future consolidated financial statements.

Accounting policies and estimates critical to financial reporting

Management believes that the following accounting policies and accounting estimates are critical to the Group's financial reporting.

Income from Forest

The invoiced price is agreed between Forest and Lundbeck at the beginning of each calendar year. The price is calculated on the basis of expectations for the coming year's development in the components included in the royalty calculation. These components are: Forest's net selling prices, quantities used in sold products, quantities used in samples, quantities wasted during processing, and the various dosage levels of the finished goods. Income from sales of escitalopram to Forest is recognised as follows:

  • Sales of escitalopram are invoiced at the agreed price, but only a proportion (the minimum price) of the invoiced price is recognised as income at the time of delivery.
  • The difference between the invoiced price and the minimum price of Forest's inventories is recognised in the balance sheet as prepayments.
  • After the end of each quarter, the final settlement price is calculated. The difference between the final calculated settlement price and the invoiced price is recognised as income and settled with Forest, and the difference between the invoiced price and the minimum price recognised in the balance sheet as prepayment at the time of delivery is recognised as income.

In connection with a potential launch of generic escitalopram in the USA, the agree ment allows Forest to convert escitalopram inventories into generic escitalopram. In connection with a conversion of escitalopram inventories, the minimum price will be adjusted by any repayment to Forest of part of the recognised minimum payment. This adjustment will be expensed in the financial statements.

License income and income from research collaborations

License income and royalties from outlicensed products as well as non-refundable downpayments and milestone payments relating to research collaborations are recog nised in the income statement under revenue when the following criteria have been met: • The payment relates to research results already obtained.

  • The most significant risks and benefits associated with the asset sold are transferred to the buyer.
  • Lundbeck does not retain management control of the asset sold.
  • Revenue from the individual payments in an overall agreement can be clearly separated and calculated reliably at fair value.
  • It is probable that Lundbeck will receive payment for the asset sold.
  • There are no further delivery obligations for Lundbeck concerning the asset sold.

Development costs

Development costs are capitalised if the criteria for such capitalisation are deemed to have been met and it is found to be probable that future earnings will cover the development costs. Due to a very long development period and significant uncertainty in relation to the development of new products, in the opinion of Lundbeck, develop ment costs should not normally be capitalised in the balance sheet until the develop ment of the product has been completed and all the necessary public registration and marketing approvals have been obtained. Otherwise, development costs are recognised in the income statement as they are incurred.

Intangible assets

Goodwill and product rights represent a significant part of the Group's total assets. The majority of the value of these items arose through the acquisition of companies. In connection with acquisitions, the individual assets and liabilities are re-assessed to ensure that both recognised and unrecognised values are measured at fair value. Espe cially for intangible assets for which there is often no active market, the calculation of fair value may involve uncertainty. Intangible assets with indefinite lives and intangible assets in progress are tested for impairment at least once a year or if there is evidence of impairment. The value in use of the assets is calculated by discounting the estimate made by management over the expected cash flows during a budget period of at least five years with due consideration to patent expiry. For the calculation of the value in use of the assets, the Group uses its discount rate and management's expectations for growth and terminal value in the period over and above the five years. These factors are crucial for the assessment of any impairment and thus for the final calculation of the fair value of intangible assets.

It is a precondition for the retention of the value of the Group's rights that such rights are respected. It is Lundbeck's policy to defend these rights wherever they may be violated.

Recognition and measurement

Assets are recognised in the balance sheet when it is probable that future economic benefits will flow to the Group and the value of the asset can be measured reliably. Liabilities are recognised in the balance sheet if they are probable and can be measured reliably.

On initial recognition, assets and liabilities are measured at cost or fair value. Subse quently, assets and liabilities are measured as described for each item below.

Certain financial assets and financial liabilities are measured at amortised cost, implying the recognition of a constant effective rate of interest to maturity.Amortised cost is stated as original cost less any principal payments and plus/less the accumulated amor tisation of any difference between cost and the nominal amount. Recognition and measurement take into consideration gains, losses and risks that arise before the time of presentation of the consolidated financial statements and that confirm or invalidate matters existing at the balance sheet date.

Income is recognised in the income statement as earned and includes value adjust ments of financial assets and financial liabilities measured at fair value or amortised cost. In addition, expenses incurred to generate the income for the year are recognised, including depreciation, amortisation, impairment losses and provisions as well as reversals of amounts previously recognised in the income statement as a result of changed accounting estimates.

Consolidated financial statements

The consolidated financial statements comprise the parent company H. Lundbeck A/S and subsidiaries controlled by the parent company. Control is achieved where the parent company directly or indirectly holds more than 50% of the voting rights or is otherwise able to exercise or actually exercises control.

Companies in which the Group holds between 20% and 50% of the voting rights and exercises significant influence but not control are regarded as associates.

Basis of consolidation

The consolidated financial statements are prepared on the basis of the financial state ments of the parent company and the subsidiaries, which are all prepared in accordance with the Group's accounting policies.

The consolidated financial statements are prepared by adding together uniform items and eliminating intra-group income and expenses, investments, balances and dividends as well as realised and unrealised gains and losses on transactions between the consoli dated companies. Account is taken of the tax effect of these eliminations.

Business combinations

Newly acquired companies are recognised in the consolidated financial statements from the date of acquisition. Companies sold or discontinued are recognised in the consolidated income statement up to the time of sale or discontinuance. Expected costs related to divestment or discontinuance are included in the calculation of gains or losses.

Acquired businesses are accounted for using the purchase method of accounting, according to which the identifiable assets, liabilities and contingent liabilities of the acquired companies are measured at fair value at the time of acquisition. Account is taken of the tax effect of the revaluations made. The cost of a business is generally the fair value of the consideration paid. If the final determination of the consideration is contingent on one or more future events, the value thereof will be recognised at fair value at the date of acquisition. Changes to contingent considerations are recognised in the income statement. Costs directly attributable to the business combination are recognised in the income statement as incurred.

Positive differences (goodwill) between the cost of the acquired business and the fair value of the acquired identifiable assets, liabilities and contingent liabilities are recog nised under intangible assets. Negative differences (negative goodwill) between the cost of the acquired business and the fair value of the acquired identifiable assets, lia bilities and contingent liabilities are recognised in the income statement at the time of acquisition.Goodwill arising from acquired businesses is adjusted within a maximum period of 12 months from the acquisition if additional information about the fair value at the time of acquisition of assets, liabilities and contingent liabilities acquired is ob tained after the acquisition. However, goodwill will not be recognised by an amount exceeding the expectations of future income from the acquiree.

Goodwill and fair value adjustments in connection with the acquisition of independent foreign entities (subsidiaries or associates) are accounted for as assets and liabilities in the acquiree and translated at the exchange rate at the balance sheet date.

Gains or losses on disposal or discontinuance of subsidiaries and associates

Gains or losses on the disposal or discontinuance of subsidiaries and associates are calculated as the difference between the selling price or the discontinuance amount and the carrying amount of net assets at the time of sale as well as anticipated costs relating to sale or discontinuance. The resulting gain or loss is recognised in the income

statement together with accumulated currency translation adjustments previously recognised in other comprehensive income.

Translation of foreign currency

On initial recognition, transactions denominated in foreign currencies are translated at standard rates which approximate the actual exchange rates at the transaction date. Exchange differences arising between the exchange rate at the transaction date and the exchange rate at the date of payment are recognised in the income statement as net financials except in case of hedge accounting. In case of hedge accounting, such differences are recognised in the same item as the hedged item.

Receivables, payables and other monetary items denominated in foreign currencies that have not been settled at the balance sheet date are translated at the exchange rates at the balance sheet date. The difference between the exchange rates at the balance sheet date and the rates at the time the receivable or payable is created or recognised in the latest consolidated financial statements is recognised in the income statement under net financials in respect of unhedged items and under the same item for hedged items.

On recognition of foreign subsidiaries having a functional currency different from that used by the parent company, non-monetary as well as monetary items are translated at the exchange rates at the balance sheet date. Exchange differences arising from the translation of both the balance sheets and the income statements of the foreign sub sidiaries are recognised in the Group's statement of comprehensive income under other comprehensive income.

Foreign exchange adjustment of receivables from or debt to subsidiaries which are con sidered part of the parent company's overall investment in the subsidiary in question is recognised in the Group's statement of comprehensive income under other compre hensive income.

On recognition of foreign associates having a functional currency different from that used by the parent company, assets and liabilities are translated at the exchange rates at the balance sheet date, while the income statement is translated at average exchange rates for the year. Exchange differences arising from the translation of foreign associates are recognised in the Group's statement of comprehensive income under other compre hensive income.

Financial instruments

Forward exchange contracts and other derivatives are initially recognised in the balance sheet at fair value on the value date and are subsequently remeasured at fair value at the balance sheet date. Positive and negative fair values are included in other receiv ables and other payables respectively.

Changes in the fair value of derivatives classified as hedging instruments and meeting the criteria for hedging future cash flows are recognised in the Group's statement of comprehensive income under other comprehensive income. Income and expenses related to such hedging transactions are transferred from other comprehensive income on invoicing of the hedged item and included in the same item as the hedged item.

Changes in the fair value of derivatives classified as hedging instruments and meeting the criteria for hedging the fair value of a recognised asset or liability are recognised in the income statement together with changes in the value of the hedged asset or liability.

For derivatives which do not qualify for hedge accounting, changes in fair value are recognised in the income statement under net financials as they arise.

Changes in the fair value of derivatives used to hedge net investments in independent foreign subsidiaries or associates and which otherwise meet the relevant criteria are recognised in the Group's statement of comprehensive income under other compre hensive income.

Securities, available-for-sale financial assets and derivatives measured at fair value are classified as belonging to levels 1-3 depending on the pricing method applied. Level 1 includes financial assets for which the fair value is measured on the basis of quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets. Level 2 includes financial assets and financial liabilities for which the fair value is measured on the basis of directly or indirectly observable inputs other than the quoted prices included in level 1. Level 3 includes financial assets for which the fair value is measured on the basis of valuation techniques which include inputs not based on observable market data.

Assets held for sale

Non-current assets and groups of assets held for sale are presented as a separate item in the balance sheet as current assets. Non-current assets are not depreciated or amor tised, but are written down to fair value less expected costs to sell where this is lower than the carrying amount.

Income statement

Revenue

Revenue comprises invoiced sales for the year less returned goods and revenue-based taxes consisting mainly of value added taxes and foreign revenue-based drug taxes.

Sales subject to a price adjustment clause are included in revenue at the time of delivery at the minimum price. The balance of the invoiced price is recognised in the balance sheet as a prepayment and is subsequently included in revenue when the price has been finally determined. The price is finally determined as the product is resold by the customer.

Moreover, revenue includes license income and royalties from outlicensed products as well as non-refundable downpayments and milestone payments relating to research and development collaborations.

In addition, income from the reduction of investments in research enterprises con sidered to represent the sale of research results is recognised as revenue.

See Accounting policies and estimates critical to financial reporting on page 68 for a description of the accounting treatment of income from Forest and of license income and income from research collaborations.

Cost of sales

Cost of sales comprises the cost of goods sold. Cost includes the cost of raw materials, transport costs, consumables and goods for resale, direct labour and indirect costs of production, including operating costs, amortisation/depreciation and impairment losses relating to manufacturing facilities. Cost of sales moreover includes expenses in connection with quality assurance of products and any writedown to net realisable value of unsaleable and slow-moving items.

Distribution costs

Distribution costs comprise expenses incurred in connection with the distribution of the Group's products sold during the year and in connection with sales campaigns, etc. launched during the year under review, including direct distribution and marketing costs, salaries etc. for the sales and marketing functions, as well as amortisation/ depreciation and impairment and other indirect costs.

Administrative expenses

Administrative expenses comprise expenses incurred during the year for the manage ment and administration of the Group, including expenses in connection with the administrative functions, management, office premises and office expenses, as well as amortisation/depreciation and impairment and other indirect costs.

Research and development costs

Research and development costs comprise expenses incurred during the year in con nection with the Group's research and development functions, including wages and salaries, amortisation/depreciation and impairment and other indirect costs as well as costs relating to research and development collaborations on in-licensed products.

Research costs are always recognised in the income statement as they are incurred.

Development costs are capitalised if a number of specific criteria for capitalising these costs are deemed to have been met. Otherwise, development costs will be recognised in the income statement as they are incurred.

See Accounting policies and estimates critical to financial reporting on page 68 for a description of conditions for capitalising development costs.

Results of investments in associates

The proportionate share of the results of associates is recognised in the consolidated income statement after tax and elimination of the proportionate share of any intra group gains and losses and after deduction of any writedowns of the equity investments.

Net financials

Net financials include interest income and expenses which are recognised in the income statement at the amounts relating to the financial year.Value adjustments of financial assets and realised and unrealised gains and losses on investments, unhedged items denominated in foreign currencies as well as forward contracts and other derivatives not used for hedge accounting are also included in net financials.

Tax

The Group's Danish subsidiaries are jointly taxed with the principal shareholder LFI a/s and its Danish subsidiaries. The current Danish income tax liability is allocated among

the companies of the tax pool in proportion to their taxable income (full allocation subject to reimbursement in respect of tax losses).

Tax for the year, which consists of the year's current tax and the change in deferred tax, is recognised in the income statement as regards the amount that can be attributed to the net profit or loss for the year and directly in the statement of comprehensive income under other comprehensive income as regards the amount that can be attrib uted to items under other comprehensive income. Exchange rate adjustments of de ferred tax are recognised as part of the movements in deferred tax.

The current tax charge for the year is calculated based on the tax rates and rules applicable at the balance sheet date.

Balance sheet

Intangible assets

Goodwill

On initial recognition, goodwill is measured and recognised as the excess of the cost or fair value of the acquired business over the fair value of the acquired assets, liabilities and contingent liabilities. On recognition of goodwill, the goodwill amount is allocated to those of the Group's activities that generate separate cash flows (cash-generating units).

Goodwill is not amortised, but is tested for impairment at least once a year (impair ment test), or if there is evidence of impairment.

Development projects

Clearly defined and identifiable development projects are recognised as intangible assets where the technical rate of utilisation of the project, the availability of adequate resources and a potential future market or development opportunity in the company can be demonstrated and where the intention is to manufacture, market or use the project if the cost can be measured reliably and it is probable that the future earnings can cover production and selling expenses, administrative expenses as well as the development costs. Other development costs are recognised in the income statement as the costs are incurred.

After completion of the development work, development costs are amortised on a straight-line basis over the expected useful life. For development projects protected by intellectual property rights, the maximum amortisation period is the remaining term of the rights concerned. Ongoing development projects are tested for impairment at least once a year, or if there is evidence of impairment.

Other intangible assets

Acquired intellectual property rights in the form of product rights, patents, licenses, customer relationships and software are measured at cost less accumulated amorti sation and impairment. The cost of software comprises the cost of planning, including labour and costs directly attributable to the project. Product rights are amortised on a straight-line basis over the economic lives of the underlying products. Patents are amortised, as a maximum, over the remaining patent period, and licenses are amortised

over the period of agreement. Amortisation commences when the asset is ready to be brought into use, which means at the time of commercialisation.

Amortisation is recognised in the income statement under cost of sales, distribution costs, administrative expenses and research and development costs, respectively.

Other intangible assets with indeterminable useful lives are not amortised but tested for impairment at least once a year, or if there is evidence of impairment.

Borrowing costs to finance the manufacture of other intangible assets are recognised in the cost price if such borrowing costs relate to the production period. Other borrowing costs are taken to the income statement.

Gains and losses on the disposal of development projects, patents and licenses are measured as the difference between the selling price less cost to sell and the carrying amount at the time of sale.

See Accounting policies and estimates critical to financial reporting on page 68 for a description of the calculation of the fair value of intangible assets.

Property, plant and equipment

Property, plant and equipment are measured at cost less accumulated depreciation and impairment. Land is not depreciated.

Cost includes the costs of purchase and expenses directly attributable to the purchase until the asset is ready for use. In the case of assets manufactured by the company, cost includes expenses directly attributable to the manufacture of the asset, including materials, components, subsupplies and labour.

Borrowing costs to finance the manufacture of property, plant and equipment are recognised in the cost price if such borrowing costs relate to the production period. Other borrowing costs are taken to the income statement.

Property, plant and equipment are depreciated on a straight-line basis over the expected useful lives of the assets, which are expected to be as follows:

Buildings 30 years
Installations 10 years
Plant and machinery 3-10 years
Other fixtures and fittings, tools and equipment 3-10 years
Leasehold improvements max. 10 years

The depreciation base is cost less the estimated residual value at the end of the expected useful life. The cost of a total asset is divided into smaller components that are depreciated separately if such components have different useful lives. Depreciation methods, useful lives and residual values are re-assessed annually.

Depreciation is recognised in the income statement under cost of sales, distribution costs, administrative expenses and research and development costs, respectively.

The costs of maintaining property, plant and equipment are recognised in the income statement as they are incurred, either directly in the income statement or as part of indirect costs of production.

Costs incurred that increase the recoverable amount of the asset concerned are added to the asset's cost as an improvement and are depreciated over the expected useful life of the improvement.

Gains or losses on the sale or retirement of items of property, plant and equipment are calculated as the difference between the carrying amount and the selling price reduced by costs relating to divestment or discontinuance.Gains and losses are recognised in the income statement under the same item as the associated depreciation.

Impairment

Goodwill is written down through the income statement in those cases where the carrying amount exceeds the future net income expected from the cash-generating unit (CGU) to which the goodwill relates (recoverable amount). In the impairment test, the discounted expected future cash flows (value in use) for each CGU are com pared to the carrying amounts of goodwill and other net assets.

The carrying amount of intangible assets and property, plant and equipment is ana lysed in connection with the preparation of the consolidated financial statements if there are indications that the carrying amount of an asset may exceed the expecta tions of future income from the asset (recoverable amount). If this analysis concludes that the future expected net income from the asset will be lower than the carrying amount, the carrying amount will be reduced to the higher of fair value less cost to sell and value in use. Impairment losses are recognised in the income statement under the same items as the associated depreciation or amortisation.

Investments in associates

Investments in associates are recognised and measured in the consolidated financial statements according to the equity method, which entails that the investments are measured in the balance sheet at the proportionate share of the associate's net asset value calculated in accordance with the Group' accounting policies less or plus unrealised intra-group gains and losses and plus the carrying amount of goodwill.

The proportionate share of the result of the associate is recognised in the income statement after tax and elimination of the proportionate share of any intra-group gains and losses and after deduction of any writedowns of the investments. The propor tionate share of all transactions and events recognised directly in the associate's other comprehensive income is recognised in the Group's statement of comprehensive income under other comprehensive income.

Investments in associates with a negative carrying amount are recognised at DKK 0. Receivables and other long-term financial assets considered to form part of the overall investment in the associate are written down by any remaining negative net asset value. Trade receivables and other receivables are written down only to the extent they are deemed to be irrecoverable. A provision to cover the remaining negative net asset value will only be made if the Group has a legal or constructive obligation to cover the liabilities of the relevant associate.

Other financial assets

Other investments that are included in the Group's documented investment strategy in accordance with the fair value option of IAS 39 Financial Instruments: Recognition and Measurement are recognised on the basis of the value date and are measured at market price or estimated fair value at the balance sheet date. Both realised and un realised gains and losses are recognised in the income statement under net financials.

Other investments outside the scope of the documented investment strategy are avail able for sale, and on initial recognition these investments are measured at fair value with the addition of directly attributable costs. Other investments are subsequently measured at fair value at the balance sheet date, and changes to the fair value are recognised in the statement of comprehensive income under other comprehensive income with the exception of impairment losses and dividends, which are taken to the income statement.When other investments are sold or settled, the accumulated fair value adjustments are recognised in the income statement.

Other receivables with a fixed maturity are measured at amortised cost less writedowns as a result of diminution in value. Other receivables without a fixed maturity are measured at cost.

Inventories

Raw materials, packaging and goods for resale are measured at the latest known cost at the balance sheet date, which equals cost computed according to the FIFO method. Work in progress and finished goods manufactured by the company are measured at cost, i.e. the cost of raw materials, consumables, direct labour and indirect costs of production. Indirect costs of production include materials and labour as well as mainte nance of and depreciation on the machines, factory buildings and equipment used in the manufacturing process as well as the cost of factory administration and manage ment. Indirect costs of production are allocated based on the normal capacity of the production plant.

Inventories are written down to net realisable value if it is lower than the cost price. The net realisable value of inventories is calculated as the selling price less costs of conversion and costs incurred to execute the sale, and it is determined having regard to marketability, obsolescence and expected selling price developments.

Receivables

Current receivables arising in the Group's normal course of business are measured at nominal value less writedowns to counter the risk of loss calculated on the basis of an individual evaluation. A provision account is used for this purpose.

Prepayments

Prepayments consist of expenses relating to subsequent financial years. Prepayments are measured at cost.

Other securities

Other securities, including the bond portfolio, that are included in the Group's docu mented investment strategy and recognised under current assets are recognised on the basis of the value date and are measured at the market price at the balance sheet date. Both realised and unrealised gains and losses are recognised in the income state ment under net financials.

On initial recognition, other securities outside the scope of the documented investment strategy are measured at fair value with the addition of directly attributable costs. They are subsequently measured at fair value at the balance sheet date, and changes to the fair value are recognised in the statement of comprehensive income under other com prehensive income with the exception of impairment losses and dividends, which are taken to the income statement.When securities are sold or settled, the accumulated fair value adjustments are recognised in the income statement.

Equity

Dividends

Proposed dividends are recognised as a liability at the time of adoption of the dividend resolution at the annual general meeting (the time of declaration). Dividends expected to be paid in respect of the year are included in the line item Profit for the year in the statement of changes in equity.

Treasury shares

Cost and selling prices of treasury shares as well as dividends are recognised directly in equity.Gains and losses on sales are therefore not recognised in the income statement.

Share-based payments

Share-based incentive programmes in which employees may opt to buy shares in the parent company and in which shares are allocated to employees (equity schemes) are measured at the equity instruments' fair value at the date of grant and recognised in the income statement under staff costs when or as the employee obtains the right to buy/receive the shares. The balancing item is recognised directly in equity under other transactions.

Share price-based incentive programmes in which employees have the difference between the agreed price and the actual share price settled in cash (debt schemes) are measured at fair value at the date of grant and recognised in the income statement under staff costs when or as the employee obtains the right to such difference settlement. The incentive programmes are subsequently remeasured on each balance sheet date and upon final settlement, and any changes in the fair value of the programmes are recognised in the income statement under staff costs. The balancing item is recognised under provisions.

Pension obligations

The Group has entered into pension agreements and similar agreements with the majority of the Group's employees.

Periodical payments to defined contribution plans are recognised in the income state ment at the due date and any contributions payable are recognised in the balance sheet under current liabilities.

The present value of the Group's liabilities relating to future pension payments accord ing to defined benefit plans is measured on an actuarial basis at intervals of not more than three years on the basis of the pensionable period of employment up to the time of the actuarial valuation. The Projected Unit Credit Method is applied to determine the present value. The present value is calculated based on assumptions of the future developments of salary, interest, inflation, mortality and disability rates and other

factors. Actuarial gains and losses are recognised in the income statement as they are calculated.

The present value of the liability according to defined benefit plans is measured less the fair value of the plan assets, and any net obligation is recognised in the balance sheet under non-current liabilities. Any net asset is recognised in the balance sheet as a financial asset.

The year's changes in the provisions relating to defined benefit plans are recognised in the income statement.

Income tax and deferred tax

Current tax liabilities and receivables are recognised in the balance sheet, computed as tax calculated on the taxable income for the year, adjusted for provisional tax paid.

Tax on items in other comprehensive income is recognised in the statement of compre hensive income under other comprehensive income.

Deferred tax is recognised on all temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities and their tax base, except for temporary differences arising either on initial recognition of goodwill or a transaction that is not a business combi nation and with the temporary difference ascertained at the time of the initial recog nition affecting neither the financial result nor the taxable income. The tax value of the assets is calculated based on the planned use of each asset.

Deferred income tax is provided on temporary differences arising on investments in subsidiaries and associates, unless the parent company has a possibility of controlling when the deferred tax is to be realised and it is likely that the deferred tax will not materialise as current tax.

Deferred tax is measured on the basis of the tax rates and tax rules in force in the respective countries on the balance sheet date. Changes in deferred tax as a result of changed tax rates or tax rules are recognised in the income statement.

Deferred tax assets, including the tax value of tax loss carry-forwards, are recognised in the balance sheet at the value at which the asset is expected to be realised, either through a set-off against deferred tax liabilities or as net assets.

Changes in deferred tax concerning the cost of share-based payments are generally recognised in the income statement.

Deferred tax in respect of recaptured losses previously deducted in foreign subsidiaries is recognised on the basis of a specific assessment of the intention with each individ ual subsidiary.

Balances calculated according to the rules on interest deductibility limitations in the Danish Corporate Income Tax Act are allocated between the jointly-taxed companies according to a joint taxation agreement and are allocated between the companies that are subjected to deductibility limitation in proportion to their share of the total limitation. Deferred tax liabilities in respect of these balances are recognised in the

balance sheet, whereas deferred tax assets are recognised only if the criteria for recog nition of deferred tax assets are met.

Other provisions

Other provisions are recognised when the Group has a legal or constructive obligation that arises from past events and it is probable that an outflow of financial resources will be required to settle the obligation.

Other provisions are measured as the best estimate of the costs required to settle the liabilities at the balance sheet date.

Return obligations imposed on the industry are recognised in the balance sheet under other provisions.

Debt

Mortgage debt and debt to credit institutions are recognised at the time of the raising of the loan at proceeds received less transaction costs paid. In subsequent periods, the financial liabilities are measured at amortised cost, equivalent to the capitalised value when the effective rate of interest is used, so that the difference between the proceeds and the nominal value is recognised in the income statement over the loan period.

Debt included in the short-term financial liquidity is also measured at amortised cost in subsequent periods.

Other payables, which include trade payables and debt to public authorities etc. are measured at amortised cost.

Cash flow statement

The consolidated cash flow statement is presented according to the indirect method and shows the composition of cash flows, divided into operating, investing and financing activities respectively, and the cash and cash equivalents at the beginning and at the end of the year.

Cash flows from acquisitions and divestments of companies are shown separately under cash flows from investing activities. The cash flow statement includes cash flows from acquired companies from the date of acquisition and cash flows from divested companies until the time of divestment.

Cash flows from operating activities are calculated as the Group's profit from opera tions, adjusted for non-cash operating items, working capital changes, financial receipts and payments and income taxes paid.

Cash flows from investing activities include payments in connection with purchases and sales of intangible assets, property, plant and equipment and financial assets, including equity investments in companies. Also included are securities classified as current assets.

Notes 1-2

Cash flows from financing activities include payments to and from shareholders and related expenses as well as the raising of and repayments on loans, mortgage debt and other long-term debt.

Cash comprises cash less current bank debt falling due on demand.

Cash flows denominated in foreign currencies, including cash flows in foreign subsidi aries, are translated at the average exchange rates during the year because they approxi mate the actual exchange rates at the date of payment. Cash at year-end is translated at the exchange rates at the balance sheet date, and the effect of exchange rate adjustments on cash is shown as a separate item in the cash flow statement.

Segment information

Lundbeck is engaged in research, development, production and marketing of pharma ceuticals for the treatment of brain disorders.

In accordance with IFRS 8 Operating Segments, segments must be identified based on internal management reporting. In Lundbeck, the internal management reporting follows the Group's accounting policies. In accordance with the internal management reporting, on the basis of which management evaluates and allocates resources, the Group's activities are in the business segment of 'Pharmaceuticals for the treatment of brain disorders'.

The Group's senior operational management is the Corporate Management Group (CMG), which consists of the Group's Executive Management registered with the authorities and persons in charge of the function areas Business Development, HR and Legal. CMG makes decisions in respect of the future strategy, draws up action plans and defines targets for the Group's future operations.

The geographic distribution is shown for revenue and is based on the external customers' geographical location.

Key figures

Financial key figures are calculated according to Recommendations and Financial Ratios 2010 issued by the Danish Society of Financial Analysts.

For definitions of key figures see Summary for the Group 2006-2010, p. 58-59.

Change in accounting policies made in 2009

In connection with the voluntary change of accounting policies in respect of foreign currency translation for foreign subsidiaries implemented in the first quarter of 2009, Lundbeck hereby specifies, as a result of a ruling from the Danish Commerce and Companies Agency, that the change ought to have been referred to as a correction of prior financial years (referred to as restatement in the statements and notes). The ruling does not affect figures in the consolidated financial statements of the current year or earlier years. Lundbeck disagrees with the ruling but has taken note of it.

Income from Forest in the USA

Income from sales of citalopram and escitalopram to Forest amounted to DKK 2,443 million in 2010 (DKK 2,451 million in 2009) based on the minimum price for this year's shipments and adjustments of prepayments concerning prior-year shipments. Prepayments, which is the difference between the invoiced price and the minimum price, were DKK 517 million at 31 December 2010 (DKK 693 million in 2009). See Note 1 Accounting policies for a more elaborate description hereof.

The agreement with Forest takes into consideration the expiry of the escitalopram patent protection in the USA in 2012. Prior to any launch of generic escitalopram, Forest is expected to reduce its escitalopram inventories to a low level.

Developments in Forest's inventories and net selling price are monitored closely, and the risk of the price adjustment clause and repayment of the prepayment being ap plied is regularly assessed. Inventories at 31 December 2010 corresponded to approxi mately 6 months of commercial supply (approximately 6 months of commercial supply at 31 December 2009). It is believed that there is presently no repayment risk.

Incentive programmes

In order to attract, retain and motivate key employees and align their interests with those of the shareholders, Lundbeck has established a number of incentive programmes. Lundbeck uses equity-based as well as debt-based schemes, and the tables below show all the incentive programmes in place in 2009 and 2010.

Equity-based schemes

In the 2010 financial year, equity-based schemes consisted of warrant schemes and share schemes granted in the period 2007-2010.

No warrants were exercised in 2010 as the schemes were either out-of-the-money or had not vested. At 31 December 2010, the total number of warrants which were exercisable and in-the-money was 0 (0 in 2009).

The performance of the Lundbeck share in 2010 is illustrated in the chart on page 46 in the section The Lundbeck share.

In March 2010, the company established a warrant scheme and a share scheme for the Executive Management and a number of key employees in Denmark and abroad. 101 employees were granted a total of 765,979 warrants and 96,355 shares, of which the Executive Management was allocated 507,885 warrants and 22,308 shares. The warrants and shares will vest at 16 March 2013 subject to the employee still being employed with Lundbeck. For members of the Executive Management, award of the number of warrants and shares is also subject to H. Lundbeck A/S' ranking in a peer group of companies. The ranking in a peer group of companies is based on the Total Shareholder Return over a three-year period. The warrants are exercisable during the period 16 March 2013 to 15 March 2018 at an exercise price of DKK 97.00.

The fair value per warrant at the time of grant is calculated using the Black-Scholes method and is based on a volatility of 32.29%, a dividend payout ratio of 1.50%, a risk-free interest rate of 2.60%, an average maturity of approximately 66 months and a share price of DKK 99.55. This translates into a fair value of DKK 29.86 per warrant. The volatility is based on daily data during the period 18 January 2005 to 31 December 2009.

The fair value at the time of grant was DKK 99.55 per share.

In October 2010, the company established a warrant scheme and a share scheme for key employees in Denmark and abroad. 16 employees were granted a total of 24,971 warrants and 6,334 shares. The warrants and shares will vest at 16 March 2013 subject to the employee still being employed with Lundbeck. The warrants are exercisable during the period 16 March 2013 to 15 March 2018 at an exercise price of DKK 97.00.

The fair value per warrant at the time of grant is calculated using the Black-Scholes method and is based on a volatility of 31.70%, a dividend payout ratio of 1.50%, a risk free interest rate of 1.73%, an average maturity of approximately 60 months and a share price of DKK 95.70. This translates into a fair value of DKK 24.30 per warrant. The volatility is based on daily data during the period 18 January 2005 to 31 December 2009.

The fair value at the time of grant was DKK 95.70 per share.

Debt-based schemes

The existing debt-based schemes consist of Stock Appreciation Rights and Restricted Cash Units awarded during the period 2008-2010.

In 2010, a few employees of US subsidiaries were granted Stock Appreciation Rights (SARs), a share price-based scheme with conditions and award criteria similar to those of the warrant scheme granted in 2010 to a number of key employees of the parent company and its non-US subsidiaries. The allocated SARs will vest at 16 March 2013 subject to the employee still being employed with Lundbeck. The allocated SARs are exercisable during the period 16 March 2013 to 15 March 2018. The size of the amount depends on how much the price of the Lundbeck share at the exercise date exceeds DKK 97.00 per share. The share price-based scheme for employees of the Group's US subsidiaries cannot be converted into shares because the value of the scheme is distributed as a cash amount.

The fair value per SAR at the time of grant is calculated using the Black-Scholes method and is based on a volatility of 32.29%, a dividend payout ratio of 1.50%, a risk-free interest rate of 2.60%, an average maturity of approximately 66 months and a share

price of DKK 99.55. This translates into a fair value of DKK 29.86 per SAR. The volatility is based on daily data during the period 18 January 2005 to 31 December 2009, which corresponds to the expected outstanding duration of the scheme.

Moreover, in 2010, a few employees of US subsidiaries were granted Restricted Cash Units (RCUs), a share price-based scheme with conditions and award criteria similar to those of the share scheme granted in 2010 to a number of key employees of the parent company and its non-US subsidiaries. The allocated RCUs will vest at 16 March 2013 subject to the employee still being employed with Lundbeck, after which time they are settled. The size of the amount depends on the value of the Lundbeck share at the vesting date. The share price-based scheme for employees of the Group's US subsidiaries cannot be converted into shares because the value of the scheme is distributed as a cash amount.

The fair value per RCU at the time of grant was calculated at DKK 99.55.

The fair value calculations do not take any employee attrition into consideration.

Fair value, liability and expense recognised in the income statement

The warrants and shares granted are recognised in the income statement for 2010 at an expense corresponding to the fair value at the time of grant calculated according to the Black-Scholes method for the vesting period to date. For the warrants and shares in the 2008, 2009 and 2010 programmes that depend on the Lundbeck share's ranking in the peer group of companies, the recognised expense was calculated with due consideration to fulfilment of the vesting conditions.

The SARs granted are recognised in the income statement for 2010 at an expense corresponding to the value adjustment for the year based on the Black-Scholes method, and the RCUs granted are recognised in the income statement for 2010 at an expense corresponding to the value adjustment for the year based on the performance of the Lundbeck share.

Goodwill impairment test

The carrying amount of goodwill of DKK 3,792 million (DKK 3,520 million in 2009) relates to the acquisition of Lundbeck Research USA, Inc., USA, Lundbeck Pharma ceuticals, Italy S.p.A., Italy, Lundbeck GmbH,Germany, Laboratoire Elaiapharm SA, France and Lundbeck Inc., USA. The annual impairment tests are submitted to the Audit Committee for subsequent approval by the Supervisory Board. Based on the impairment tests performed in 2010, it was concluded that there is no need for writing down the goodwill.

Revised CGU definition

Compared with 2009, Lundbeck has revised its definition of cash-generating units (CGU), which are the smallest identifiable groups of assets that generate independent income. The reason for this revision is that the production and distribution flow of the products and the joint sales and management force are considered one joint and integral part of the Group.

As a result of the revised CGU definition, as from 2010 goodwill will be tested at an aggregated group level, with the exception, however, of Lundbeck Inc., which in respect of some of the parameters used in the group CGU definition is not yet fully integrated and therefore is considered an independent CGU in 2010.Within a couple of years, Lundbeck Inc. is expected to be fully integrated from a CGU viewpoint.

Methodology

In the impairment test, the discounted expected future cash flows (value in use) for each CGU are compared to the carrying amounts of goodwill and other net assets. The future cash flows are based on Lundbeck's specific business plans for the next 6-8 years with due consideration to patent expiry. The key parameters in the calculation of the value in use are revenue, earnings, working capital, discount rate and the preconditions for the terminal period. Negative growth is projected in the terminal period due to patent expiry. The calculation of the value in use for the Group, excl. Lundbeck Inc., is based on a discount rate of 9.5% (restated comparative figure of 8.9% in 2009). For Lundbeck Inc. a discount rate of 11.6% (restated comparative figure of 10.8% in 2009) was used. The discount rate is before tax, and the result of [WACC/(1 - tax rate)] and the applied cash flows are also pre-tax figures.

Impairment of other intangible assets

Impairment of product rights amounted to DKK 48 million, which has been recognised in the income statement under distribution costs. The recoverable amount was calcu lated on the basis of management's re-assessed estimate of the value in use of the assets. In 2009, Lundbeck wrote down the product rights to Circadin® by DKK 157 million. The impairment loss was recognised under distribution costs. The recoverable amount was calculated on the basis of management's re-assessed estimate of the value in use of the asset.

Credit risks

Lundbeck's products are sold primarily to distributors of pharmaceuticals and hospitals. Historically, the losses sustained have been insignificant. This was also the case in 2010.

Total 389 348

The Group has no particular customer concentration and no significant reliance on specific customers.

Lundbeck has defined internal procedures to be followed in connection with the establishment of new customer relationships and changes to existing relationships. The procedures were established to ensure that the risk of losses is reduced to the extent possible.

At 31 December 2010 receivables from Forest Laboratories, Inc. accounted for more than 5% of total trade receivables. This was also the case at 31 December 2009.

At 31 December 2010 receivables from Takeda Pharmaceutical Company Limited and Teva Pharmaceutical Industries Ltd., respectively, accounted for more than 5% of total other receivables. This was also the case at 31 December 2009.

Market risks

The pharmaceutical market is characterised by the aim of the authorities to reduce or cap the otherwise rising healthcare costs. Market changes such as price reductions may have a considerable impact on the earnings potential of pharmaceuticals.

In 2010, Lundbeck experienced significant price reductions in several countries in southern Europe, where higher debts and rising unemployment have compelled the governments to identify savings in the public budgets. These savings have resulted, among other things, in a number of healthcare reforms triggering comprehensive price reductions in a number of countries. Lundbeck expects that the uncertainty about public debts and developments in unemployment and the resulting focus on public budgets will continue into 2011 and 2012.

Lundbeck is monitoring developments in the European economies and also developments in trade receivables in order to reduce the risk of losses to the best possible extent.

1) The securities portfolio is classified as financial assets measured at fair value with value adjustments through profit or loss.

Liquidity risks and capital structure

The credit risk of cash and derivatives (forward exchange contracts and currency options) is limited because Lundbeck deals only with banks with a high credit rating. To further limit the risk of losses, internal limits have been defined for the credit exposure accepted towards the banks with which Lundbeck collaborates. The credit lines are presented to the Supervisory Board for approval pursuant to the Group's treasury policy.

The treasury policy deals with financial resources, foreign currency exposure, securities portfolio and loan portfolio and is presented once every year to the Audit Committee for subsequent approval by the Supervisory Board. In addition, the Supervisory Board approves the framework for selecting financial collaboration partners, commitment lines and types of business.

Pursuant to Lundbeck's internal liquidity management guidelines, Lundbeck must always be capable of raising a minimum of DKK 1 billion at two weeks' notice. If this amount is not available in cash, fixed-term deposits or bonds, Lundbeck will enter into guaranteed credit facilities with banks.

The securities portfolio consists, among other things, of Danish government and mort gage bonds with a limited credit risk. In addition, via Lundbeck Inc. in the USA, Lundbeck has a portfolio of Auction Rate Securities, for which the credit risk is also considered minimal, as the underlying loans on these securities are guaranteed by the US government.

Lundbeck operates in an industry characterised by frequent shifts in the market situation that may involve a need for in-licensing and acquisition activities.

Despite a strong cash flow from ordinary activities, Lundbeck intends to maintain financial resources in the form of cash and binding loan commitments to allow for flexible operations in case of rapid shifts in the market situation. At 31 December 2010, Lundbeck had binding syndicated loan commitments for DKK 1.0 billion with a term to maturity of three years from 4 March 2010. In addition, Lundbeck had a number of non-binding credit facilities for use in its day-to-day operations. At 31 December 2010, these amounted to DKK 0.4 billion, of which DKK 0.3 billion was unutilised. At 31 December 2009, Lundbeck had binding loan commitments for DKK 1.0 billion from a Danish financial institution. This credit facility expired on 17 December 2010. In addition, Lundbeck had a large number of non-binding credit facilities for use in its day-to-day operations. At 31 December 2009, these amounted to DKK 0.2 billion, of which DKK 0.1 billion was unutilised.

Furthermore, Lundbeck manages its capital structure based on a wish to carry an investment-grade rating. A number of financial institutions indicate that Lundbeck's calculated implied rating would be of an investment grade nature.

Liquidity exceeding the requirement for business development and general business purposes is primarily distributed as dividends or, until 2009, was used for share buyback purposes. Lundbeck pursues a policy of distributing between 25% and 35% of the profit for the year as dividends.

Other than small operational changes, no changes were made to Lundbeck's treasury policy compared with 2009.

The parent company has only one class of shares, and all shares rank equally. The shares are negotiable instruments with no restrictions on their transferability.

The Supervisory Board is authorised to issue new shares and raise the share capital of the parent company, as set out in article 4 of the parent company's Articles of Association.

The share premium of DKK 224 million relates to the exercise of warrants in 2007 and earlier (see note 3 Staff costs). The amount is unchanged compared with 31 December 2007.

The share capital is in compliance with the capital requirements of the Danish Companies Act and the rules of NASDAQ OMX Copenhagen.

The parent company did not hold any treasury shares in 2010. At the annual general meeting held on 21 April 2009, it was resolved to lower the parent company's share capital in 2009 by DKK 3,848,240 nominal value of the parent company's portfolio of treasury shares, corresponding to 769,648 shares.

19. Pension obligations and similar obligations

The majority of the employees of the Group are covered by pension plans paid for by the companies of the Group. The types of plan vary according to regulatory require ments, tax rules and economic conditions in the countries in which the employees are employed. A summary of the most important plans is given below.

Defined contribution plans

For defined contribution plans, the employer undertakes to pay a defined contribution (e.g. a fixed amount or a fixed percentage of the pay). Under a defined contribution plan, the employees will usually bear the risk related to future developments in interest and inflation rates etc.

The major defined contribution plans cover employees in Australia, Belgium, Denmark, Finland, Ireland, Sweden, the UK and the USA. The cost of defined contribution plans, representing contributions to the plans, totalled DKK 174 million in 2010 (DKK 170 million in 2009).

Defined benefit plans

For defined benefit plans, the employer undertakes to pay a defined benefit (e.g. a retirement pension at a fixed amount or a fixed percentage of the employee's final salary). Under a defined benefit plan, the company usually bears the risk relating to future developments in interest and inflation rates etc.

For defined benefit plans, the present value of future benefits, which the company is liable to pay under the plan, is computed using actuarial principles. The computation of present value is based on assumptions about discount rates, changes in pay rates and pensions, investment yield, staff resignation rates, mortality, disability and other factors. Present value is computed exclusively for the benefits to which the employees have earned entitlement through their employment with the company. Actuarial gains and losses are recognised in the income statement as they are calculated.

2010

No acquisitions were made in 2010.

In the first quarter of 2010, Lundbeck finalised the purchase price allocation related to the acquisition of Ovation Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (now Lundbeck Inc.). This gave rise to a DKK 37 million reclassification from product rights to goodwill.

2009

In March 2009, Lundbeck acquired the US-based company Ovation Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (Ovation), which was subsequently renamed Lundbeck Inc. In October 2009, Lundbeck acquired the French company Laboratoire Elaiapharm SA (Elaiapharm).

24. Company acquisitions – continued

The cost prices paid in connection with the company acquisitions exceeded the fair value of acquired identifiable assets, liabilities and contingent liabilities. According to a preliminary calculation, the positive difference amounted to DKK 2,836 million.With respect to the acquisition of Ovation, the positive difference is explained primarily by the realisation of the strategic objective of establishing a commercial platform in the USA. At the same time, Lundbeck took over an experienced management team and sales force as well as great scientific and regulatory expertise. In terms of Elaiapharm, the positive difference is explained primarily by the achievement of increased production and packaging capacity and more flexible and cheaper production. A specification of the development in goodwill from 1 January to 31 December 2009 is provided in note 12 Intangible assets and property, plant and equipment. After recognition of goodwill on the Ovation and Elaiapharm acquisitions, total consolidated goodwill amounted to DKK 3,520 million at 31 December 2009.

In 2008, the United States Federal Trade Commission (FTC) filed an antitrust claim against Ovation (now Lundbeck Inc.) in respect of the pricing of NeoProfen®, which is marketed by Lundbeck Inc. in the USA. Management is confident that Lundbeck will win the case. However, IFRS 3 Business Combinations stipulates that contingent liabilities must be recognised in the acquisition balance sheet at fair value, and Lundbeck has therefore recognised an amount.With reference to IAS 37 Provisions, Contingent Liabilities and Contingent Assets, no information is provided in respect of the size of the recognised amount, as such disclosure is expected to cause material harm to Lundbeck.

Lundbeck Inc. and Elaiapharm were recognised in the consolidated income statement for 2009 at a profit of DKK 101 million.

If the companies had been acquired as of 1 January 2009, consolidated revenue for 2009 would have been DKK 14,130 million and profit for the year DKK 1,960 million.

Foreign currency risks

Foreign currency management is handled centrally by the parent company. The parent company hedges a significant part of the Group's anticipated cash flows for a period of approximately 12 months, depending on the currency in question.

Currency management focuses on risk minimisation and is carried out in conformity with the foreign currency policy approved by the Supervisory Board. The hedging consists partly of a fixed minimum hedge and partly of a variable part. The fixed part is hedged by forward contracts classified as hedging instruments and meeting the accounting criteria for hedging future cash flows. Changes in the fair value of these contracts are recognised in the statement of comprehensive income under other comprehensive income as they arise and – on invoicing of the hedged cash flow – transferred from other comprehensive income for inclusion in the same item as the hedged cash flow.

Hedging contracts that do not meet the hedge criteria are classified as trading contracts, and changes in the fair value are recognised as financial items as they arise.

The profit impact is included in the impact on equity.

Lundbeck's USD income derives primarily from sales to Forest and revenue in Lundbeck Inc.

According to the Group's accounting policies in respect of Forest, the minimum price is recognised as income at the time of invoicing, and the excess amount is recognised in the balance sheet as a prepayment. Prepayments and any remaining settlement will be recognised as Forest subsequently resells the products. Income and expenses relating to hedging contracts covering this part of the hedged cash flows are recognised in the balance sheet together with the prepayments and subsequently recognised in the income statement as Forest resells the products.At 31 December 2010, an exchange loss of DKK 30 million (an exchange gain of DKK 123 million in 2009) had been recognised in the balance sheet together with the prepayments.

Interest rate risks

Interest rate risk management is handled centrally by the parent company. Through the treasury policy, the Supervisory Board has approved the limits for borrowing and investment. Loans secured by real property must be approved by the Supervisory Board. To hedge the interest rate risk on loans, the Supervisory Board has approved the use of interest rate swaps, Caps, Floors and Forward Rate Agreements (FRAs).

Bond investments may only be made in Danish government and mortgage bonds. For managing the interest rate risk on the securities portfolio (the securities portfolio includes bonds and money market deposits), the company applies a duration target capped at five years for the entire portfolio. The return on the securities portfolio was DKK 8 million in 2010 (DKK 44 million in 2009), corresponding to a return of 0.73% p.a. (3.95% p.a. in 2009). Lundbeck's benchmark at the end of 2010 was 6-month CIBOR. The return on the benchmark portfolio was 1.54% p.a. in 2010 (1.85% p.a. in 2009 on a bond benchmark with a duration of six months). In 2010, Lundbeck under performed the benchmark because the duration on the securities portfolio was delibe rately kept very short based on a wish to maintain a low liquidity binding and because the additional return at a longer duration was believed to be unattractive relative to the higher price risk in case of higher interest rates. At 31 December 2010, the securi ties portfolio had a duration of 0.03 years, which translates into a gain/loss of much less than DKK 1 million if interest rates should fall/rise by 1 percentage point.

There were no derivatives at 31 December 2010 and at 31 December 2009 to manage interest rate risks because the distribution of debt carrying floating and fixed interest at the given times was deemed to be satisfactory.

Other purchase obligations

The Group has undertaken purchase obligations in the amount of DKK 211 million (DKK 199 million in 2009).

Research collaborations

The Group is part of multi-year research collaboration projects comprising minimum research and contractual obligations in the order of DKK 0 million (DKK 17 million in 2009). The total amount of the obligations may increase substantially in line with the favourable development of the research projects.

Other contractual obligations

The Group has entered into various service agreements amounting to DKK 76 million (DKK 43 million in 2009).

27. Contingent liabilities

Forest

See note 2 Segment information in respect of the consequences of a potential launch of generic escitalopram in the USA.

Prepayments from Forest have been translated at the exchange rate at the transaction date or at the forward rate and recognised in the balance sheet in the amount of DKK 517 million (DKK 693 million in 2009). If the translation had been made at the exchange rate at the balance sheet date, the prepayments would have amounted to DKK 493 million (DKK 698 million in 2009).

Letters of intent and bank guarantees

The Group's bankers have issued bank guarantees to third parties in the amount of DKK 117 million (DKK 73 million in 2009). In addition, the Group has issued a guarantee to third parties in the amount of DKK 9 million (DKK 9 million in 2009). The Group has evaluated that the fair value of guarantees is DKK 0 million (DKK 0 million in 2009).

Pending legal proceedings

The Group is involved in legal proceedings against a number of businesses, including patent disputes. In the opinion of management, the outcome of these proceedings will not have a material impact on the Group's financial position, results of operations or cash flows beyond the amount provided for in the financial statements. Due to uncer tainty about the outcome of the legal proceedings, the amount of the provision is uncertain. See Risk management on page 39 for more details.

The Group is involved in a case filed by the United States Federal Trade Commission (FTC) in respect of the pricing of NeoProfen®, which is marketed by Lundbeck Inc. in the USA. In September, the U.S. Federal District court ruled in favour of Lundbeck. FTC and the State of Minnesota subsequently appealed the ruling. Management is confident that Lundbeck will also win the appeal.

The Group is also involved in arbitration proceedings concerning our collaboration with Neurim on Circadin®. Management expects that Lundbeck will win the case.

Industry obligations

The Group has return obligations normal for the industry. Management expects no major loss on these obligations.

Results from the two first phase III studies on nalmefene

On 3 January 2011, Lundbeck announced the completion of two out of three pivotal studies in the phase III clinical programme for nalmefene in alcohol dependence (ESENSE 1 and SENSE ). The studies were conducted in Europe and enrolled about 1,300 patients with alcohol dependence. A concomitant psychosocial intervention in the studies was a brief, standardised programme focussed on adherence and follow-up. In both studies the overall safety profile of nalmefene was consistent with observations and data provided in previous studies.

Clinical phase III programme with zicronapine

On 20 January 2011, Lundbeck announced the advancement of zicronapine into clinical phase III based on the positive clinical phase II data.

Zicronapine (formerly known as Lu 31-130) is a new type of compound with a strong pro-cognitive effect in animal models and the potential to treat a number of neuro logical and psychiatric diseases. In the phase II development programme, zicronapine has shown strong, positive anti-psychotic effects. The first study in the clinical phase III programme is expected to enrol patients in several countries in Europe. Classical short-term efficacy studies will be initiated in due time.

Lundbeck expands its commercial opportunities in Canada and Latin America

On 8 February 2011, Lundbeck announced that the company has been granted commercial rights to several Cephalon products in Canada and Latin America. As part of the agreement, Lundbeck will register and commercialise several key products which are currently available in the USA and/or Europe on behalf of Cephalon. Key products in the agreement include Fentora® (fentanyl buccal tablet) [C-II], Provigil®, Treanda®, Trisenox® (arsenic trioxide) injection, Myocet® (liposomal- doxorubicin) and Nuvigil®.

Reference price group for escitalopram in Germany

In February 2011, the Federal Joint Committee in Germany (G-BA) recommended to group escitalopram together with citalopram in a reference price group, indicating a fixed price for reimbursement on escitalopram in Germany. The recommendation is pending approval by the German Ministry of Health. Approval of this recommendation will have a negative impact on sales in Germany going forward.

1. Accounting policies

The annual report of the parent company H. Lundbeck A/S has been prepared in accordance with the provisions of the Danish Financial Statements Act for large reporting class D enterprises. The annual report is presented in Danish kroner (DKK), which also is the functional currency of the parent company.

The accounting policies are unchanged from the previous year.

Differences relative to the Group's accounting policies

The parent company's accounting policies for recognition and measurement are in accordance with the Group's policies with the exceptions stated below:

Income statement

Results of investments in subsidiaries and associates

Dividends from subsidiaries and associates are recognised in the parent company's income statement when the parent company's right to receive dividend has been approved, less any writedowns of the equity investments.

Balance sheet

Non-current assets

Assets reclassified as assets held for sale in the consolidated financial statements are not reclassified in the financial statements of the parent company.

Investments in subsidiaries and associates

Investments in subsidiaries and associates are measured at cost in the parent company's financial statements.Where the recoverable amount of the investments is lower than cost, the investments are written down to this lower value. In addition, cost is written down to the extent that dividends distributed exceed the accumulated earnings in the company since the acquisition date.

Other financial assets

On initial recognition, securities and investments are measured at cost, corresponding to fair value plus directly attributable costs. They are subsequently measured at fair value at the balance sheet date, and changes to the fair value are recognised under net financials in the income statement.

Statement of changes in equity

Pursuant to the schedule requirements of the Danish Financial Statements Act, entries recognised in the statement of comprehensive income in the consolidated financial statements are recognised directly in the statement of changes in equity in the parent company's financial statements.

Cash flow statement

As allowed under section 86 (4) of the Danish Financial Statements Act, no cash flow statement is presented, as this is included in the consolidated cash flow statement.

Management statement

Today, we considered and approved the annual report of H. Lundbeck A/S for the finan cial year 1 January – 31 December 2010.

The consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with Interna tional Financial Reporting Standards as adopted by the EU, and the financial statements of the parent company have been prepared in accordance with the Danish Financial Statements Act.

We recommend that the annual report be approved at the Annual General Meeting.

Independent auditor's report

To the shareholders of H. Lundbeck A/S

We have audited the consolidated financial statements, parent financial statements and management review of H. Lundbeck A/S for the financial year 1 January – 31 December 2010, which comprise the income statement, balance sheet, statement of changes in equity and notes, including the accounting policies, for the Group and the Parent, respectively, as well as the statement of comprehensive income and cash flow statement of the Group. The consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards as adopted by the EU, and the parent financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the Danish Financial Statements Act. Further, the consolidated financial statements and parent financial statements have been prepared in accordance with Danish disclosure require ments for listed companies. The management review has been prepared in accordance with Danish disclosure requirements for listed companies.

Management's responsibility for the consolidated financial statements, parent financial statements and management review

Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of the consolidated financial statements in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards as adopted by the EU and Danish disclosure requirements for listed companies as well as the preparation and fair presentation of the parent financial statements in accordance with the Danish Financial Statements Act and Danish disclosure requirements for listed companies, and for the preparation of a management review that contains a fair review in accordance with the Danish disclosure requirements for listed companies. This respon sibility includes: designing, implementing and maintaining internal control relevant to the preparation and fair presentation of the consolidated financial statements, parent financial statements and management review that are free from material misstate ment, whether due to fraud or error, selecting and applying appropriate accounting policies, and making accounting estimates that are reasonable in the circumstances.

Auditor's responsibility and basis of opinion

Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements and parent financial statements and this management review based on our audit.We conducted our audit in accordance with Danish and International Standards on Auditing. Those Standards require that we comply with ethical requirements and plan and per form the audit to obtain reasonable assurance whether the consolidated financial state ments, parent financial statements and management review are free from material misstatement.

An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the consolidated financial statements, parent financial statements and management review. The procedures selected depend on the auditor's judgement, including the assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the consolidated financial statements, parent financial statements and management review, whether due to fraud or error. In making those risk assessments, the auditor considers internal control relevant to the entity's preparation and fair presentation of the consolidated financial statements and parent financial statements and to the fair review of a manage ment review in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the entity's internal control.An audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates made by Management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the consolidated financial statements, parent financial statements and management review.

We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion.

The Lundbeck Foundation

The Lundbeck Foundation is the largest shareholder of Lundbeck, holding 70% of the shares. It is a commercial foundation founded in 1954 by Grete Lundbeck, widow of the founder of H. Lundbeck A/S. The main objective of the Foundation is to maintain and expand the activities of the Lundbeck group and to provide financial support for scientific research in Denmark and abroad. This support is given independently of Lundbeck's research.

In the period 2008-2010, the Foundation awarded grants of approximately DKK 1 billion, primarily for scientific purposes in the biomedical and natural sciences. The Foundation awarded DKK 385 million in grants in 2010 and expects to award about DKK 400 million in 2011.

Most recently, the Foundation took the initiative to establish a new international brain research prize, 'The Brain Prize'. The EUR 1 billion prize will be awarded for the first time in 2011. The prize will be awarded to one or more European brain scientists who have contributed excellent and internationally recognised research results in the field of neuroscience.

The Foundation's commercial activities are carried out through the wholly-owned subsidiary LFI a/s, which holds the majority of the shares in Lundbeck and also owns a significant portion of the share capital of ALK-Abelló A/S and Falck A/S. The Foundation also has a number of portfolio investments.
