- As of March 31, 2022, cash and cash equivalents and marketable securities (both short and long-term) decreased $324.9 million to $1.26 billion from March 31, 2021; reflecting the impact from payments to the DOJ of $317.6 million ─ as a result of the global resolution with the DOJ in connection with its investigations into the U.S. generic pharmaceutical industry, the Alchemee acquisition, net of cash of $91.9 million and share repurchases of $24.9 million.
Mr. Uday Baldota, Taro’s CEO, stated, “The challenging market dynamics, including pricing, supply chain and competitive pressures persist ─ particularly in the U.S. market. However, our strong balance sheet and strategy will enable us to continue to pursue future business development opportunities, such as our recent acquisition of Alchemee and continued R&D investment.”
